That's pretty damning. Should be required viewing for those who want him back.

Jennings playing in Drew League today.

I think he needs to stop streetballing all summer and work with an actual trainer like Larry Sanders did at IMG to work on specific weaknesses. Streetballin isn't going to make Jennings a better player.

Yep, I have been wishing that for years. IMG or Abunasser would do wonders for him. Instead he is going to play chumps in the drew league with junior high kids rooting for him to turn it into an And1 event.

In fairness, have we heard anything else about him playing in pro-ams this summer? Feels like this is the first time this summer. I think he was working out at Under Armour before, not sure if he's got a skills guy though.

It seems like this Jennings thing will never end. Is there a probable deadline or could we still be wondering if he will be on the team in like September?

Everyday it looks more and more like he'll have to take the QO. It's awesome to see how this situation blew up in his face, if he didn't completely quit on the team after he didnt get selected for the all-star game, someone surely would have threw a big contract at him.

That seems like it would be a fun thing to send him on twitter. I wonder if he's seen it. And if he has, what his reaction to it being sent to him might be.

His reaction will be to take the commentator's advice: accept the 1 yr $4.5mil.

He'll still be Chucky McNoBrains when the season starts. That's his game.

Well he'll definitely get a chance to see it.

Even better, share it with Larry Sanders who shared the video by Grantland regarding post defenders highlighting himself. He echoed the line "Stats don't lie." in his tweet.

If we have to get Brandon back on the QO or a negotiated contract, especially the latter, at least his teammates led by Larry would be able to hold him accountable.

I love how the video basically says Jennings needs to improve everything, which is completely accurate:

1)Doesn't get to rim much
2)Poor Jump Shooter
3)Not a huge # of assists
4)Poor Defender

But he is still young and has time to mature, plus he has loads of potential.
