Legacy Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 (edited) Despite all the distractions, all the Rookie of the Year talk, all Jennings wants is a spot in the playoffs. Early in the week, Jennings raised eyebrows after going just 2-for-12 in a win over the Wizards. "My offense is just terrible right now," Jennings was quoted in the Journal-Sentinel. "I don't even know if I want to shoot the ball because things are just not going my way. I'm struggling really bad right now." That drew a sitdown with coach Scott Skiles. "We're not fond of that kind of statement," Skiles said. "We know where his heart lies." Where Jennings heart is is helping the Bucks -- currently fifth in the East -- reach the playoffs. "Right now, I'm playing for something bigger. I don't even care about the Rookie of the Year," Jennings said. "Forget it. Whoever gets it, who cares? Both of their teams suck, so whoever gets it, it doesn't matter."Source Edited March 18, 2010 by Legacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted March 18, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 That's funny. That lame Sacramento team, the one that sucks, beat his Bucks on December 19th...and in that game, Jennings was dominated by both Evans and Udrih. It's all good, though. He will be in Sacramento this Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poe Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 It's easy for him to say he doesn't care because he knows he's not going to get it at this point. Also, his mentality about his shooting performance is really, really bad. He'll need to change that if he wants to get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Evans is the best rookie since LeBron James/Carmelo Anthony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check my Stats Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Jennings is good when he isn't launching 18 foot, off balance jump shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Penny Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 why are you guys complaining? i loved it when Jennings said this. 99% of players in the NBA are all in love with eachother... good to see someone taking shots http://media.masslive.com/hoophallclassic_impact/photo/brandon-jennings-55-points-47106f0237f82c39_large.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenneral Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Something he definitely needs to take less of.Not really. He's getting a lot of open looks and he's hitting the majority of his 3's. He's struggling with his close shots, which I'd like him to keep shooting as they'll eventually fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's struggling with his close shots, which I'd like him to keep shooting as they'll eventually fall.He's averaging 15.3 FGA per game, at 37% shooting. John Salmons is taking 14.9 FGA at 45%, and Andrew Bogut is at 13.4 FGA at 52%. The success is coming from Bogut and Salmons, clearly. The two threes that Jennings hits per game doesn't make up for the 10 jumpers he misses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
