I still think Jennings is a better “pg” than Rose.

Please, please put this thread back up to the top. If for no other reason than to get to laugh at statements like this:

“Jennings is a far superior shooter and scorer than Rose”

Wish this thread would get moved to the front again.

Rose averaging 23 pts a game on better than 50% shooting since the the New Year.

Jennings shooting 32% since the beginning of December.

I saw Jennings in Milwaukee for the McD’s all-american game, I know how he plays when he wants an assist record. He was, as The Real Tyrone would say it…”dishin those dopey dimes”… which I find funny seeing as how Mil drafted him.

No way I personally would trade Tyrus for Warrick, but i’d give you Tyrus and Noah for Bogut. I do agree that having a shot blocker behind you helps with the gambling on defense. Tyrus cleans up a lot of mistakes when he’s on the floor…key words…WHEN HE’s ON THE FLOOR. Vinny kept him under 30min a game in the playoffs and most of last season.

I got rooks in that game especially if blake is back healthy. I can’t see the soph’s matching up with Takeover,TY Evans & Lawson,Flynn,Chase,Blake. You’re going to see a side of Brandon you wasn’t so sure of. I guarantee he has at least 15 assist. Also dealing with screens has a lot to do with help side communication & rotation. At least for Jennings he tries to figure it out because he knows he could stay in front. Once he’s locked off there’s no help. If no screen comes they both give good effort. TEAM DEFENSE allows you to gamble,send to weak side & strong side. If Kobe & D.Howard played together with Battier they’d be a #1 Defensive team. The Bucks have no shot blocker & the Bulls are missing Tyrus. Warrick for Tyrus what you think???? I hope you guys get Boozer or Amare. I want James White & anybody that at least tries to block & rebound. You could have luke ridnour for lindsey hunter or Pargo. I want JJ to. Jennings doesn’t miss wide open threes. Rose reminds me of Wade in a lot of ways. Bullies.

“Neither is a three point threat which will both open up their potential immensely.”

Isn’t Jennings shooting like 45% from 3pt this season. You must be getting your info from NBA live… watch a real game. Niether of them have “excellent” defense either. They are avg right now with Jennings being a tad better on-ball. But they both have low awareness when it comes to dealing with screens on defense.

I actually have both of these point guards on Live 2010 (PS3). I have Rose starting but they play almost equal time per game mainly because B Jennings is consistent. His quickness is scary, passing on point, and his jump shot off screens is a game changer. Offensively, Jennings matches up well against any point guard in the league; however, when he faces big guards, their strength can overpower him. I say if he bulks up a bit more next year, he can be a better player than Rose. I do like Rose running the team, decent basketball IQ, good passer, excellent handles, and can get into the lane for a layup or to bring a double towards him which allows a shooter room to perform. Both have excellent on the ball defense because every game they get at least two steals. This is almost like choosing apples or oranges because they are both young and still emerging. Neither is a three point threat which will both open up their potential immensely. –L.Dubb

@eyes,

You’re right. That rookie/soph game is going to be off the chain. Blake should be back by then. Blake vs Bees, Mayo and Gordon vs Harden and Tyreke, Rose and Westbrook vs Jennings and Collison, B.Lopez, Love and Oden vs Thabeet, Ibaka, Hansbrough. I think the sophs will win, but it will be exciting.

Ya’ll are stupid. I have to use that one. What about when Lindsey drove the length of the court on jennings wth the floater. He caught a flashback. I also agree with the coaching and having a vet around for Rose. What did JJ do to not play. I hate his damn part & haircut. You had to see the game where Luke looked BJ off like let me shine young’n. I wanted a little duel myself. D.Rose took it to him for like a 3 min stretch. I got worried. I was just waiting for a come fly with me moment(G.Oden) Why did he do that to him light with the double knee brace.

I cant wait till they both have coaches who understand the new aged game & players. Also a legit supporting cast who goes in. What about the stinky leg he gave to Charlie Bell on the triple slo mo cross. He moved Jennings twist a few times. He’s way to unselfish to. Nice guys I tell you. The Gift & the Curse. You sometimes wish they’d be mad the whole game and just punish people. Me and my ball crew still talk about the skills challenge when he threw down that pump reverse dunk. You don’t do stuff like that w/o trying. He’s a FREAK OF NATURE. I’m jealous of the ChI man & some of the other cities. You guys are consistently pumping pro’s and college players that live up to the hype. Keep it up man love the basketball swag & knowledge of the game. I could tell you love it like me. I can’t wait for the Rookie Sophmore Game. It is going to be a classic to remember for. I hope D.Rose and Jennings get the All Star nod this yr. We need these two to step up and help rescue this game of ours. I’m suprised Skiles doesn’t wear dark glasses on the bench sometimes. He looks like George from Seinfield too. But RoboCop is hilarious.
