    "Another team's junk" -- @Codman

    We've been told, the Bucks are one of the teams Codman has ears into, so his ears were right, again.

    Can't be worse than Michael Carter-Williams.

    Perhaps -or- a means to #MakeBrogdonHappyAgain ... Maybe Jennings gets picked up by another "pig"...

    Jennings would wreck shop for us off the bench. Give us an extra scoring punch.

    You think Brogdon is "someone's junk"?

    No, I don't recall Rockets expressing interest in Jennings before. Would need a memory refresh on that, if so...

    *edit (adding post below)...

    Yes he is that bad. Has not had FG percentage above 40% since 2014-2015 season and that was at 40.1%. He is a score first player who does not score very well. MCW is even less efficient than Jennings but at least MCW is disruptive and long on defense.

    Jennings is another JR Smith, probably even worse at this point...Brogdon though, would absolutely love to get him but eh, not sure how that's possible.

    I have not seen a point guard not do well under Mike D'Antoni. His system caters to guards actually.

    I don't think Codman is always implying we have expressed interest in all the players he hears are being moved, but rather letting us know who is on the move. But I do know Brodgon isn't considered "junk."

    anyhoot, ignore me and my attempts to use the "someone's junk" joke wherever I can.

    This is just wrong.

    Jennings is a solid defender and an extremely heady point guard. It is a huge misnomer to think that he is some Nate Robinson, knuckle-head scorer, and just proves that you haven’t watched him play much.

    He is much closer to Rafer Alston than a guy like JR Smith. Smart player that can run an offense, but any shot outside of an open three is extremely inefficient. (Rafer)

    Forgive me, but has Brandon Jennings been with the Bucks this whole time?

    No, he tore his left Achilles tendon when he playing at his best with the Pistons in 2015. Pistons vs Bucks ironically, in Milwaukee. He has never been the same player, ever since. I felt sad for him.

    The reference has nothing to do with Jennings. "Junk" is a clear reference to either James Johnson or Tyler Johnson from Miami.
