One more team for us to deal with in the East. They won't get a ring but adding Josh Smith, Billups and Jennings to Drummond and Monroe (Hoyas!) makes them pretty tough

That is one crappy outside shooting team.
yellowboy90 @ 7/30/2013 7:50 PM
is there any picks involved? That seems like an awful trade for the bucks.

Am I the only one who would prefer Brandon Knight to Jennings straight up?

Jennings is a sixth man type. He can't play point and can't run a team. Knight showed promise at 2 guard. Plus J Smoove is a major shooting liability at the 3. If he isn't playing PF, yikes. I still think they are a lotto team unless they make strides defensively. At best they can do what Milwaukee did last year.

Milwaukee, Detroit..........cleveland has to be next!

Dude's doing "Tour-de-RustBelt!"

i agree that there will be many trades in brandon jennings' future.
NUPE @ 7/30/2013 11:35 PM
Jennings really is not good. Piston's may get a lower seed at very best.
Nalod @ 7/30/2013 11:44 PM
8mm per is about right. Might be too high.

Lin gets paid more.

Funny!

If Jennings was in NY you would have his Jersey.

This guy can run a team and lead it, watch what he does in Detroit.

Are we talking about the same Jennings that has yet to average double digit assists and averages less than 40% FG!!??!

I think it's a nice trade for Detroit. They got him at a fair price and dumped some contracts on Milwaukee.

What if Knight was in NY? How many hypothetical jerseys can one man own?!

Milwaukee was trying hard to find a Jennings substitute all summer, even after losing Ellis. Teague would have been a good signing for them, but I think they got a very nice piece in Knight. I look at Jennings and see a poor-man's Marbury, headcase and all.

Will Jennings and josh Smith be Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanova reborn? I like their young front court, but I wonder if they'll get drowned out by Smith and Jennings chucking.

Yeah, Jennings is a PG chucker. I'd stay far away from him.

He can run a team about as well as Jamal Crawford can. Smith is the guy that can elevate that team but only if he's focused and consistent.

The guys on Around the Horn were calling this a playoff team. Why do we pay these Analysts so much attention when they seemingly know no more about the sport than most of us

It's all entertainment. Plus, some of those guys aren't half bad. It's not like skip and SAS. At least the guys on ATH pull up some stats occasionally lol...

Who's Detroit's coach anyway?

toad @ 8/1/2013 1:34 PM
Jennings is awful. Has no feel for the PG position. Can't shoot. Can't get to the rim. What does he do well?
playa2 @ 8/1/2013 2:53 PM
For all of you trying to bad mouth Jennings, saying he doesn't have double digit assist...WHO DID HE HAVE TO PASS TO TO GET THEM ?

People who also complain about his shooting percentage, nobody else on the team could shoot beside himself and Monta Ellis.

Stop hating , he was supposed to be a knick on draft night a few yrs ago.
