Hammond say BK is going to start for the Bucks 

Post#1 » by retrolenny » Thu Aug 1, 2013 9:14 pm

I just want to say I think that's great because I firmly believed he would be coming off the bench behind Billups!!!

He should start, they suck. Might as well find out if he can actually be a PG

All this shows how much better we are than a year ago. Knight, Middleton, English, Singler, Jerebko were all getting playing time. Not this year...

Of course he'll start. What do they have to lose? Give Knight all the minutes at PG he can handle and see what you have in him while simultaneously tanking for the 2014 draft.

At least Hammond has the stones to make that statement, if Joe didn't didn't believe in BK he never should have drafted him,or he should have have traded him long ago.This half ass support crap Joe pulls is getting old. I didn't like this trade but Jennings is a Piston now so i'm gonna pull for him and hope he improves his shot selection and defense.

That's called hedging your bet.

Much like me. Someone ask me how many games the Pistons will win this year.

















32-52

















Maybe 53 if they bench Stuckey.

Stealth tank job. Good for Knight though. He's no longer a piston, but he's a hard worker and plays with heart so I wish him the best.

He should start. Not only do they have no other PG but Knight still has lots of potential imo. I wouldn't be surprised if Knight ends up being the better player between him and Jennings. Of course, he has a lot of work to do.

Respect to the Bucs for being the first team to actually give this kid the keys officially.

Cheering for BK, great kid.

Contrary to the delusional hate above, he actually can develop into a solid starter. Not an all-star, but he can turn into a solid player with the right coaching since he is after all, a project PG. One of the things he needs to do, is to re-wire himself to be more balanced. I wish him all the luck, loved watching him play time to time.

That's good for Knight, I hope everything works out for him in Milwaukee...I'm going to make sure I watch a couple of Bucks games this season...

I hope he explodes in Milwaukee. He seems like such a nice kid and deserves positive recognition.

Knight/Mayo/Giannis/Henson/Sanders is like the bizarro awful Pistons.

I'm really rooting for the guy. We'll see how well he plays with freedom.

What's the deal, man? He was on our team for 2 years and he's a great, likeable kid. Why does it matter if people are following what's going to happen with him now that he's on another team? It's not like us being interested in how he does now is hurting you or anyone else in any way.
