He was my choice 5 months ago and he's my choice 5 months later.

If you take everything into account (skill, best overall year, leadership, leading a team to the playoffs and a possible advance, etc.) you can't go with anyone but Brandon Jennings for this years rookie of the year.

Except for Tyreke Evans who actually won the award. And he deserves it. 20 5 and 5...one of very few players to do that. All of them have been great, and he will be no exception.

Are you crazy?

Evans averaged 20+ points, 5+ assists and 5+ rebounds in his rookie season and did what only Michael Jordan, Oscar Robertson and Lebron James have done.

Evans lead all rookies in points, was second in assists and steals, had 41 games with 20+ points. Plus he was the MVP of the rookie game.


Brandon WHO?

Brandon Jennings shot 37% for the season. He was hot early scoring 20 a game on reasonable efficiency, but he went downhill fast once teams worked him out.

So long as you don't mean Eddy. ;)

But yeah, Stephen Curry is awesome, I'm glad he went just before the Knicks pick, a team with two free agents and Curry + Gallinari bombing threes could be really good.

Curry and Gallinari on the same team would be scary if they got a good low post threat and really any other decent FA. Can you imagine a team of Curry, JJ, Gallinari, and Boozer? That's a really good team...I mean really good. They could have Eddy Curry playing center and still be pounding on teams...at least offensively.

Having a hard time finding when Tyreke Evans' game comes on. Does it come on after Boston and Cleveland? Man I'm really having a hard time getting that game. It must be blacked out here on the ship.

Anyone know what time the Kings play today?

Oh wait, didnt they finish next to dead last in the West and 27th in the entire league?

Oh yeah. My bad.

Brandon Jennings, a major leader of HIS team still playing at the moment.

You´re kidding, right? What´s the reason Jennings is in the playoffs? John Salmons. He averages 20 points per game since he is on the Bucks team. Plus there are Redd and Bogut, who both are solid players.

Who else is on the Kings team??? Evans lost a guy named Kevin Martin, who scored like a beast in the beginning of the season. Evans is all alone.

Really Redd? For what 18 games this year while playing through an injury? Bogut is a really nice Center to have but I'd rather have Carl Landrey, John Thompson and Spencer Hawes than Bogut, Illyansova and Kurt Thomas. The bucks didn't have salmons till the final stretch and that team has had injuries all year. The Bucks were so much better due to a better system, coaching and being in the east. I'd say the rosters are about equal.
