    Jennings is overhyped. Another high volume shooter who is not efficient. Kind of like ariza except he can dribble.

    Jennings is better but I think AB will have a better game.

    sounds like durant in his rookie year.

    still, brooks will win this match up because his teammates will give him more support against jennings than jennings will get against brooks.

    Jennings might have more than avg. assist totals with Ariza out of the lineup, but I don't look for his cold shooting to change having to see Brooks/Lowry constantly.

    I hope Ariza sits out man. Lets see if Chase can get to 20 points if he starts.

    At this point I would not trade Brooks for Jennings straight up, he is the better player at this point but Jennings is only 20 with a huge upside.

    You mean you would trade Brooks for Jennings?

    It wasn't a question of who you would like on the team.

    It was who would have the better game tonight, which I didn't even answer in my OP.

    I'd have to take Brooks though. We should be able to play better D on a rookie PG and Andrew Bogut? I mean who else is on their team that is actually a threat....

    Actually that's probably the same thing they are saying about us, all we have is AB and Scoal.... but that's just our starting 5.

    Dream big, lose big!

    hahah..hope not.

    I think they'll come out ready to go today with a couple days off to give them time to rest and practice. I expect us to win by double-digits and Carl Landry to have a BIG GAME...

    Landry - 27pts, 9 rebs, 2 blks.
    Brooks - 32 pts, 8 assists, 5/7 from 3s.

    Final: 104-92

    Brooks will win tonights matchup.

    Jennings is who I would rather have at this point in time. Rockets are not title contenders this year, Jennings is much younger and more athletic IMO than Brooks. He is also a little taller and has better court vision at his age. The numbers are identical and Jennings is just a rook!

    Jennings is shooting 40% for the year, i'm surprised everyone thinks he is a good shooter.

    I didn't think durant would be this good, but the man could shoot at UT.

    BJ still has a lot to learn. Brooks should win but it should be a nice battle.

    except he's a ROOKIE who seems to have hit the rookie wall pretty early (evans has slowed down a bit too).
