Charlotte @ Detroit - 12/20/13 - 7:30pm ET

Jennings didn't even shoot them out of the game. He played a solid and better game than I actually thought he would (26 points on 50% shooting, 5 assist, & zero turnovers). Kemba just outplayed him. I see you take your wits & run all neely wheely with it without any ground to support it

Kemba definitely out played him but I recall several ill-fated step back jumpers by Jennings that would have gotten an F in basketball 101 class. The fact that Jennings dominated the ball and didn't dump it into the bigs, Detroit's big advantage that was kicking our ass all game was indicative enough of shooting them out of the game, even if he did get lucky and hit a decent percentage. I remember one corner three he made off a fadeaway extremely early in the clock, if he hadn't of hit that, any decent coach would have yanked him. That dude has the basketball IQ of Corky from Life Goes On.

There isn't a player in their core that has a high basketball IQ. It is what it is with them. Without Jennings, they would be a bottom feeder. Outside of the monstrous advanced stats of Drummond, Jennings has been their best player this season, and the biggest reason why they've been able to beat teams like Miami & Indiana if you ask me

I know, that's why I said it's either feast or famine with him. When he's on, they're damn near unbeatable, he used to beat us practically by himself when he was a Buck. But when the game is competitive, massive trainwreck potential with him is just around the corner. If he had a coach that could reign him in like Popovich or even Doc Rivers he'd be hella good but Mo Cheeks sucks.

Let's all have a moment of silence (or concern) for Taylor tho. I think his injury got lost in this mayhem of a comeback.

He will be missed. He is not a great defender at the 3, but he is a solid if not good defender guarding 2's. CDR is not better than he is. At least not at the defensive end due to versatility. Its a really larger blow than some of you think.

I'm telling you. You guys are going to love CDR by the end of this season like we fell in love with McBob at the end of last season. CDR is a good defender too and he's longer than Taylor.

They're just not familiar with CDR yet. CDR was once a steal as a 2nd rounder similar to Taylor. The only difference is, CDR showed more flashes of brilliance & overall ability in his past opportunities than Taylor has shown

WOW!!! i just finished the game.

so THATs that jefferson can bring to this team in the 4th quarter. you could make a tutorial video for post moves from that 4th quarter. yeah, his pick and roll defense was bad as he kept letting jennings get to his left hand and yeah he missed a ton of bunnies in the 1st half - but overall, that was seriously awesome by jefferson.

another amazing game by kemba. this will go down as kemba's best month in his short career - so far. we arent going to lose many games when kemba shoots 12-17.

for a team with so many bigs, detroits interior defense is crap. kemba had more easy layups tonight than he has had all season combined.

and for the downer..... just crushed about jeff taylor. thats just an awful awful injury. i feel so bad for him. (note i havent checked twitter or read the game thread, but i am assuming he tore his Achilles).

CDR better get ready for some minutes. and MKG better get his butt healthy soon.

awesome to see the team get so excited watching that game - biz, MKG and the bench was going nuts.

seriously, why does any defense let jennings every go left? you might as well cut off his right hand.

Greg Monroe make Al Jefferson look like Roy Hibbert defensively

[freakon0mics]

Sucks about JT though. That injury didnt look good at all. He's out at least for the rest of the year. With MKG already out, it makes things very thin at that 3 spot now. I think we will see more BG and Sessions playing at the 2 till MKG comes back with Hendo playing some 3 at times.

[Elden Payton]

I wonder if we will continue to be slept on after winning 3 in a row?

Too bad about JT, I hope he makes a full recovery.

We could win 15 in a row, but as long as Lebron is breathing, you won't hear a word on ESPN.

Well it's odd that we're 1 game below .500 and outperforming a lot of teams which were meant to be ahead of us and not a single person from the media has mentioned it.

There has been some positive comments about Clifford but nothing about the team

Kemba keeps on scoring like he has and that will change.

I think...

[Amateur Wannabe]

First of all, so sorry about JT. Hopefully he'll get well. Only info I could find on the internet is "it's incomplete rupture".

Other... I can't freakin believe Bobcats Watched only first quarter, and after that it seemed Pistons would destroy the Cats. Oh, I just saw 4th qtr score, it's 41:17
I just hope our Youtube machine LamarMatic will assemble some video of that Big Al moves everyone is talking about

And Kemba, I wondered whether he's going to continue to play excellent, or just as usuall, after a few great games, there comes below average. Well neither of that - he switches to super mode!
