Milwaukee Bucks' Brandon Jennings off to impressive start
Blake Griffin ? Tyreke Evans ? Humbug. The rookie of the year race saw its first hat thrown in the ring this past weekend, and it didn't belong to either of those two. Instead, Milwaukee rookie Brandon Jennings -- the 10th overall draft pick who most had thought would need quite a bit of ...

Brandon Jennings makes Sonny Vaccaro look smart
ESPN.com - TrueHoop — By Henry Abbott Basketball godfather Sonny Vaccaro has been openly supportive -- instrumental even -- in encouraging some of the finest young basketball players in the U.S. to skip college to play overseas. Brandon Jennings was experiment subject #1, and endured a lot of criticism for his poor play in Europe last year. Jennings himself has gone to some trouble to express how difficult a year it was, not getting on the court much in Italy. He was drafted tenth overall, after leaving high school a year earlier as one of the top three names in his class. Jennings is looking mighty good in the NBA, however. If, instead of Rookie of the Year they ...

Hollinger Noticed
Depressed Fan — At the very end of his P.E.R. Diem column today (Insider access needed), John Hollinger picked apart Eddie Jordan's coaching decisions at the end of the Knicks game. He had some of the same issues I did, with a few differences. The focal point of Hollinger's rant was the sub Jordan made at the 5:40 mark. With the Knicks pulling closer, Jordan called on Dalembert to replace Willie Green (Jordan had been running a lineup with Thad at center prior to this sub). Hollinger makes the case that Speights should've been called on in that situation, since he was playing a strong game at the time. Things started going downhill at the 5:39 mark, ...

Everyone Loves Brandon Jennings
Brew Hoop — ... great effort. There are times when he's terrific at popping passes everywhere, and others where he over-dribbles and takes a horrible shot. He'll learn, and quickly, how to do more of the former and less of the latter. But he's a terrific scoring threat, averaging 22.0 ppg on 50 percent shooting from 3 (and just under it overall). I've been most impressed with his ball-screen action -- no rookie attacks the screens better than him, and most are much worse. Hollinger: From Rome to ROY? ...
