- Start date
WOW! :O Hey FO, sign Jennings please!
There it is y'all.
Jennings doesn't want to return to the Bucks cuz no one plays video games. He is going to join Hayward cuz he knows they can game all day.
Who is there?
Bust.
Bust who?

Granted, I don't watch him play 82 games per year.
There are some positives and negatives in the available data:
The mysynergysports stats show that when he shoots out of pick and rolls, he's pretty effective. Further, Milwaukee's roll men in pick and rolls are square in the middle of the league in points per possession, taking more shots out of these situations than league average (with offensively limited bigs).
Dude gets out in transition a fair amount, and completes in transition at about league average rates. Is right around league average spotting up as well.
Unfortunately, dude's effectiveness tanks well before short shot clocks, and he's performed like **** in clutch situations. His team has been far better (offensively and defensively) when he's off the court (even with good on-court/off-court team offense numbers for Monta). This more or less holds true for the last three seasons.
If he's committed to pushing the ball, running pick and rolls in the halfcourt, and playing focused defense, while deferring to better players in appropriate situations (that is, if he decides to play within himself, and lead his team like a real point guard), he could be pretty useful. Not sure I'd bet on that happening.

Just based on the way we operate I'd be shocked if he was brought in. I actually wouldn't mind it, he isn't very consistent but it's pretty clear he has great tools if he can put it together.
I think the FO will be VERY gunshy about extending a near max offer to a player like that this summer, especially with having to extend Gordon and Favors. I think we'll probably see some movement in the draft, a couple more stop-gap vets, and maybe one signing of a guy that you can actually envision on the team going forward.
Hopefully, over time, Favors, Kanter, Burks, Hayward will be good enough that these stopgap vets will be solid backups, not bad starters. Add a point guard and we're in good shape but Jennings seems like too big a risk to me. If you swing and miss on him, yikes.
