Jennings is the name to keep an eye on. He's having issues academically and might not be able to play for Arizona this year. There is talk of him going over to Europe to play or possibly playing in the D-League and then getting drafted. This could potentially hurt his stock according to Chad Ford so perhaps he comes out of the Top 10 and closer to the late lottery/mid-teens which is where we will probably be.

Personally, the whole jennings situations worries me about the kind of kid jennings is...we'll see wha happens, he'll get his SAT scores again on friday the 11th according to the news today.

The ESPN info i insider which is why i only gave the top 10...DX has rubio as their #1 prospect for '09 (but I still think they over rate euros in general)

I've only seen Jennings play in the McDonald's game but the kid was impressive. He can score but the kid can most definitely pass the ball and seems to love racking up high assist totals. Of course, the McDonald's game is not something you ever want to base an opinion on. That said... I liked what I saw and that includes his high box haircut which was lifted off of "Kid" from "Kind N Play"... I know you remember them.

The issues with UA and going to EUro are more of those 'intangible' stuff than his on the court stuff to me

Is it me, or does 'Play" look like the son of Armon Gilliam?

Collision is supposedly an excellent defender and will likely be in our range.

The Hammer's son?? Yes, you are correct.

Well, it's apparently become official. Brandon Jennings is leaving Arizona and heading to Europe for the next season.

Well, it will definitely be a shooter and/or PG next year for us next year.

[TheGuiltyParty]

I want Rubio

Austin: Well I vana toilet made out of solid gold, but it's just not in the cards now is it?

[johnny broad-street]

I actually have said solid gold toilet...I bought it as a gift for Ricky Rubio when he comes to town

[jemagee]

You could get ricky rubio, but you'd need a baseball bat and a set of cojones the size of that dude in major league

[johnny broad-street]

Is he all hooked up?
