All I heard so far to dispute this is Ifs and Buts ... right now you have TJ Ford and thats what you saw in Italy, No?

And for the 3rd time, I think you miss the mark. You insinuate that one shouldn't make an evaluation statement on Jennings because he hasn't played in the NBA yet. But then you bash the pick ... compare him to a quick, assist man, that can't shoot.

Jennings is bigger, can finish better...than TJ Ford.

They are both quick, can dish, but Jennings can shoot much better.

BTW, I saw Jennings play in the McDonalds All American game where I believe he was then a commit to Arizona. He can shoot better than TJ Ford, but who can't ??!!

Sky's the limit for Jennings, hopefully he takes to Skiles coaching style and has grown up some.

Ok, I'll defer to you that BJennings will be an impact player for the Bucks starting next year.

I don't think he'll be a rookie of the year candidtae, but I think he'll produce. Skiles isn't going to baby him, but he isn't going to require it. His 1 year overseas probably taught him some lessons about how a coach operates in a professional environment. He wasn't pampered over there, and he won't be here.

BUMP...fun to go back and see the early draft comments. Just goes to show how drafts really are a lottery.
