Well that's just not true at all.

Just a massively dumb statement.

Come on guys, shhhhhhhhhh, this is exactly what the kind of misinformation we need the lazy national media putting out there for us... :-)

What's the story with Jeff Teague? He's putting up solid #s, apparently ATL isn't sold on him eh?

Hope they trade him to an un-dsirable city that will match his offer sheet

Home run. Would be a great trade for the C's as well...

I'm not sure anyone could say he's our most promising young player anymore. Also, Jennings is still looking for a huge payday? I think he's in for a rude awakening. If it ends up he's honestly just been awful to get traded, f*ck this guy, seriously.

Rondo would be awesome btw but that would be so radically different from anything Hammond and Kohl have ever done. I just can't see it happening.

That would mean we're giving up on the 8th seed tho...

Sad thing is we're probably still the 8th seed regardless if we blow this team or not. We're not dropping below 9th for sure.

This is why it would kind of suck to drop to the 9th seed. I would rather full out tank and somehow end up with one of the worst records in the league or get in the 8th and at least get young guys some more playoff experience.

Help me out here. I don't watch the Bucks at all. What are Jennings' strengths and weaknesses? Outside of a potential headcase and more known for his offense. The guy seems to come off maybe selfish?

GrandAdmiralDan · Post #30 » by **GrandAdmiralDan** » Wed Feb 13, 2013 6:21 pm

MANY players have wanted out of here: Ersan, Mbah A Moute, Charlie Bell, etc. & we've ended up keeping those guys. This might be different though

How much suck can a Baddy Chuck suck...

Brandon Jennings, alleged seeker of a max deal, continues to rank only so-so by these sorts of metrics, and since the Bucks are a camera team, you can bet they know this. Jennings has recorded a ho-hum 5.8 drives per game, and the Bucks have scored just 1.06 points per possession on trips when Jennings does drive — one of the lowest numbers in the sample. Monta Ellis is both more prolific (about 8.0 drives per game) and a more efficient engine of team scoring (1.30 points per possession) when he does drive.

Ellis remains an underrated offensive player in this sense. He can bend a defense in compromising ways, and his passes have always produced a higher-than-expected number of shots at the rim and open 3s for teammates. It makes you wonder how good Ellis could be if he stopped shooting so many long jumpers (24 percent from deep on 3.5 attempts per game is basically sabotage) and learned to play acceptable defense.

Ford is chatting right now...

He just speculated that a Dallas deal would include Collison, Crowder, and a pick. His take on Atlanta is more interesting. He thinks Teague, Morrow, or Smith could be involved.

Telly Hughes is wondering what the joke is all about. This guy is a natural!

Potential trade around Smith to Philly, Jennings and Hawes to Atlanta and Turner to us?

Thunder Muscle · Post #35 » by **Thunder Muscle** » Wed Feb 13, 2013 6:25 pm

Yeah need to get this guy out of here. Unlike the names GAD mentioned, I don't think BJ3 is professional and he'll pout. We've seen it last year and now again this year. Time to move on. It's not like we've been good with him. If he goes on to blow up, so be it, but at this point he is a borderline All-Star for a ceiling.

Chad Ford is on for a Q & A session on ESPN and talked about some possible guys MKE brings back for Brandon.

http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/47076

Atlanta: Morrow, Teague, or a big package with Josh Smith involved (don't see that happening)
Dallas: Collison, Crowder, and a pick
Orlando: JJ, Jameer Nelson, and a young guy

Jennings / Dalembert / Gooden for Josh Smith / Jeff Teague works financially...

Thunder Muscle · Post #38 » by **Thunder Muscle** » Wed Feb 13, 2013 6:26 pm

Josh Smith to Milwaukee would be ironic, sure he'd be real thrilled.

kid idioteque · Post #39 » by **kid idioteque** » Wed Feb 13, 2013 6:26 pm

Ford seems to think the Bucks have lots of valued assets. Let's hope there are a handful of GMs that agree.

Teague to the Bucks would be my dream. Now that's the kind of PG I can move forward with.

Josh Smith is the PF version of Baddy Chuck.
