Pick an answer for what you think the Bucks SHOULD do with Jennings, post what you think the Bucks WILL do with him

I this the Bucks should and will QO him.

Rescind QO and tell him to shove it

Captain Erv · Post #4 » by **Captain Erv** » Sun Jul 14, 2013 4:35 am

Let him walk.

I know you guys are angry but I sign him long term.

I think they should just take him on the QO, and then trade him if he requests it. I have a feeling they'll sign him to a long-term deal though and this board will implode.

Not popular but I sign him long term if he takes $7 million per year or less. I absolutely would not let him walk. Don't let him get his way and his freedom just for fear of him acting childish. Don't set that precedent.

I would still sign him long term, hoping this process humbled him in some aspects and he works on his attitude. I know a long shot...

If we can get him on a reasonable deal, then I think we should resign, if he still wants a crazy deal then let him walk.

I consider this only if his contract demands are within the bounds of reason.

I don't want him on the QO because even if he somehow hits his upside, we get nothing and I don't want another pouty locker room meltdown.

I think I try to trade him to Toronto or maybe Boston if we can get a reasonable package back for him. If not I try to work on a contract with him, and if he won't be reasonable I take whatever the best offer I could get was and figure out PG from there.

PG is too important a position to lock up an average to below average player long-term. Punt on PG this season, try and find a long term solution next year. They can QO or let him walk for all I care, I just don't want them committing to him long term, for any price. $7 million a year is a good deal if he's a good player, which he isn't.

What is a reasonable contract for a bad player? League minimum? $1 million a season? If he'll take that then sure, bring him back.

Bring him back on the QO and then look to trade him.

Baddy Chuck · Post #15 » by **Baddy Chuck** » Sun Jul 14, 2013 4:58 am

I'll give him the Q/O so we can be as bad a team as possible without actually tanking.

Can pretty much look at what Nate Robinson is going to make and that's about what I'd sign him at long term.

Yup.

With or without the attitude issues I don't want him, but those expecting those attitude issues to magically disappear when he gets paid $50 million are as deluded as Monta Ella imo.

Anybody who would want him back long-term, after watching him the past 4 seasons, has to have some sort of mental issues. That, or they have very low standards.

Serge28 · Post #19 » by **Serge28** » Sun Jul 14, 2013 5:08 am

I went through each team's roster and cap situation and it seems to me that the only two teams left who could still sign Jennings to a sizable deal are 76ers and Pacers. Do you think either of those teams will do that and do you think there are any other teams out there who could still be a threat to put Hammond's puny brain to a decision?

I don't think that's accurate. He's an asset of the bucks and Brandon can likely be re-signed at fair market value. There's also a good chance he now sees what he has to do with his career in order to get the money he wants.

Sign Jennings and be done with the offseason.Tank.

What should the Bucks do with Jennings?
