There was a lot of talk about him over the past couple of years...a lot of people questioning how he would perform in the NBA.

 

I know its very early, but he has looked really good.

Not bad for a Euro-league bench warmer.

Jennings is a very talented guard. Assist to turnover ratio needs to improve a bit, but he's performed a lot better than I thought. Weak rookie class, anyone see him maybe sneaking into some R.O.Y. talk?

I imagine he'd be the front-runner...are there any rookies playing better at this point?

Not that I know of. I guess he probably is the front-runner so far.:thumb:

I hate to say it but I am impressed. Looks like a lot of us were wrong me included.

I don't know. I haven't kept up with it to be honest. Just happened to be browsing through ESPN's web site and saw something about Jennings.

 

His numbers, albeit through only three games, are very impressive for a rookie PG. I'm just guessing no other rookie is doing any better.

 

It is early though...we'll have to wait and see how he performs over the long haul, especially after teams get to scout and adjust how they defend and attack him. But, I'm definitely impressed by his early production. If nothing else, it validates all the talk about how talented he is and how much potential he has.

That's how I am as well. I haven't really paid enough attention to be able to make a good judgment. Great numbers from him though.:thumb:

That's how I am as well. So far I have been way wrong about Jennings. I hope he proves me wrong, he could be good for the NBA.

Not me.

This guy is going to be a star. I'm in the 7th year of a fantasy basketball keeper league I play with 12 friends (I'm coming of back, to back to back titles due to me drafting Chris Paul his rookie year) and I took Brandon Jennings very early. The only person who went before him was Blake Griffen. I expect him to have a big year and win rookie of the year. The coach seems willing to give him major minutes and he doesn't have much pg competition as Luke Ridnour is his competition.

 

I think going to Europe helped him mature and I see him getting about 8 assists and maybe even 2 steals a game.

Here are some of the top rookies in the league and their averages to date...

32 points and 9 assists last night. Has to be the early R.O.Y. IMO.

Atleast early on it appears that it will come down to Tyreke Evans and Brandon Jennings. Don't forget Jennings was a big time player out of high school.

55 points tonight.
