If he was an average shooter, while he still wouldn't be max worthy, he'd be much sought after. I'm not sure he can turn his shooting around at this point. 4 years in, he isn't getting any better. He's definitely someone you'd sign to a Lin-like contract though and hope for improvement... not for the Rockets, given they already have Lin. And obviously he wants way more money, so no thanks. Holiday is the young PG I wish the Rockets had.
Sorry bout the arrows hah. Habit I was going by the value of each nba franchise but if we go by that chart and Jennings logic, then Duncan or Parker shouldn't be in the game either!
That 7 to 10 million dollar range seems like overpaying. He just thinks he's a great player after that 55 point game as a rookie. Him and evans haven't really elevated their game by much after their rookie campaigns smh
OJ Mayo is not a chucker.... Agree with everything else. I much rather have a PG like Conley over him. His chucking is detrimental to the team offense. Jennings and Ellis=biggest chucking backcourt in the league and a terrible backcourt in general.
i dont know if it is him or also the lack of talent that he has to work with. remember, this kid was putting up nice numbers in the playoffs that one yr they got in and almost led the bucks to an upset over atl. i can see milwaukee offering him the most, around $10M but no way he gets a max deal. he wants to play in a bigger market, but which one of those teams need a pg?
Not to rockets owner, he makes way more money back than that 8.3 mil a year a year to Lin, the billion dollar Asian markets
I think almost every player putting up decent numbers seek maximum deals, dumb move to go public with it though. If a team gives him the max, stick a fork in me.
I figured that would happen last year, but with Lowry I'm not so sure. My money's on Jennings and Evans swapping teams or Jennings signing with Orlando.
As legit a max cat as I have ever seen. I fully expect Colangelo to move on to Project Jennings after he is done with Project Lowry and tuck him in his locker wherein are Projects Bayless, Calderon and Jack.
I don't think Toronto is fund of Lowry. I don't even think Lowry is comfortable in Toronto. It just isn't a good match. Lowry can score but is very passive in Toronto. Jennings loves Toronto and his best friend in the league plays for them. It's up to Toronto really.
