at the repeated points about how inferior he is to Sessions.

Posted a couple of times europa, I reposted a few pages back to keep people aware of his major flaws.

My bad. That's what I get for not being around here as much.

I think that particular video should be posted every page until the few remaining Jennings supporters have seen it. Not quite sure how you can be a Jennings supporter after seeing that. Outside of the feeling that he can in theory improve, I see nothing to like.

So 15 minutes ago lol. I love some of the comments on there. My favorite thing whether it be on the Bucks FB, Twitter, or this youtube video is when people say "yo Jennings is a baller, don't be a hater"

I was outspoken in how much I've wanted Jennings gone. How badly will we feel if he comes back on the QO, plays like an All Star and we DON'T trade him at the deadline in order to make the playoffs, losing to Miami in 5? And then lose him next offseason for nothing...

Have we seen this movie?

I've already prepared myself for the worse. I won't be stunned this time..

If he signs the QO he will essentially have a no-trade for the year. So yeah, thats possible.

A lot of people still seem to think he has significant upside. I don't agree. Even if he does it will need to be in a new environment. I would much rather risk a slight chance of him blossoming elsewhere over what he would do here with a 4/40 or whatever.

True. Which means he might as well stay put if he's playing well. Meaning we'd need to trade him early if he plays well. This win now horsesh*t is killing me.

Has anyone been following him on Twitter? Said anything of interest?

If he signs the QO it would be for the sole purpose of BEING traded, one would think. Anything to get out of here.

Found that funny too. Also, the subtle shots with the Ridnour comps as well.

It's probably been explained, so forgive me, just looking for a little clarity.

Once he does accept the QO, can he still be traded before the season starts?

But if he sulks and refuses any trade, we can just bench him, which he HATES, and also destroy his value further and make him look like a cancer. I can't see him vetoing any trade we may come up with.

I don't see the video as all that damning and it certainly didn't say anything we didn't already know. Bumping a biased video doesn't change anything.

Also I don't think there are many "Jennings Supporters," even on this board. Most everybody hates him. However, it can be statistically shown he's improving and remains a young player with continued growth potential. While there are reasons to be critical of the player, there are also reasons to praise the player.

So if Jennings doesn't receive an offer by anybody, is there a certain date that he defaults back to the Bucks on the QO? This is assuming the Bucks don't rescind it.

Nope. Jennings has to sign an offer sheet, negotiate a deal with Hammond or accept the QO.

AV didn't sign an offer sheet in 07 or come to an agreement with Cleveland into the beginning of the 07-08 season. It took until December 4th for Charlotte to extend him an offer, Cleveland matched.

It's a useful analogue, but presumably (hopefully) Cleveland wanted to keep AV much more than we want to keep Jennings.

Interesting, so this could go on for awhile then.

What should the Bucks do with Jennings?
