He hits the open market in 2014, pending an extension.

He has to be a RFA next year right? 4 years for rooks? Unless he signs the 1-year qualifying offer from the Bucks next year....which a player would be stupid to do. VERY risky.

[aaafluochugh]

Why is that so impossible? Do you realize how many different things could happen to make that possible?

Have you watched Bucks? Or the Bulls and Heat?

Every. Single. One. of those things would have to happen for an entire series. Don't be ridiculous.

Jenninngs is talented player that takes a lot of bad shots.


I guess he could get better, but the the Bucks should trade him while they can.

I know what he tweeted after but for him to say he's "looking into big market teams" is concerning. Same old same old I guess.

Jennings told Broussard, "I'm going to keep my options open, knowing that the time is coming up. I'm doing my homework on big-market teams."

The Bucks aren't developing anyone. All of their playing time is going to Jennings, and then a bunch of middling journeymen in an effort to snare the 8th seed and get a first round exit again. That's the big goal here.

Are you saying its impossible for an 8th seed to win a Playoff series?

[Ehlgamxf]

are the bucks willing to give him a max deal?

No, but I'l go something like 5/50.

They would have to be mental to even think about it.

[cepAceryTem]

He's shoot-first PG who is a career 39% FG shooter. Max money for him would be ABSURD.

If youre only looking at #s and %s, youre right.

[cepAceryTem]

Just because a team would be much worse without you doesn't mean you should be a max player. Those are the kind of deals that got the league in so much trouble over the last decade.

I think whoever said 5/50...that seems much more appropriate.

Huh? If the team sinks without him, doesnt that kind of make him invaluable to them?

[rengerts]

Brandon, Philadelphia meets your criteria. Thank you.

Pretty sure he's open market next year, hence the article in him looking at big markets.

The Bucks are shit without him, last year proved that. He's gotten better and better.

[replicaypu]

As to the original thing, dude is one of the few people to say he genuinely likes Milwaukee(the city) and doesn't believe stars will avoid playing there if they win.

[cepAceryTem]

Are you saying the Bucks, as #8, could beat the Heat or the Bulls in a series?

No. The goal is to win a championship. Giving him a max contract could quite possibly hinder that goal, even if they stink by letting him go.

[sttrqiss]

Its not like Jennings is as bad of sign as Redd. If the Bucks lose Jennings the franchise is completely sunk. It just sucks that a franchise like the Bucks really can't even compete for the NBA Finals. Making the playoffs is the best a Bucks fan can hope for.
