On the plus side, he’s a 38% three-point shooter. If he finished at the hoop he’d probably be at least at 40% from the field and no one would mention his mechanics.

I think they are kind of crazy looking too, his balance is a little out of whack and he doesn’t come down in the place where he takes off, but it allows him to shoot a good percentage from three. That’s good enough for me.

It’s always early enough to work on mechanics…but I have a feeling that it just won’t take. My impression of Jennings’ conception of his own jump shot is that as long as he elevates, it’s all arm. To you and me, yeah, we want him to square up and jump straight, but he’s probably not comfortable confining himself to such a habit. My guess is that he’ll either become more consistent with time/improvement on his drives to the cup…or become a streaky shooter in the vein of Eddie House, Nate Robinson, or (gulp) Larry Hughes.

Thankfully, the mechanics from the shoulder to the wrist are solid, and the arc is fine, so he has a chance of being a (rarely) successful shooter without proper mechanics from the waist down.

Is it still early enough in Jennings’ career to work on the mechanics of his jumper? He always looks off balance and semi-sideways.

I loved the way Jennings played. I think Skiles is doing a good job of sticking with Jennings while his shot is struggling. He provides the assists, energy and swagger the Bucks need.

That would incite a riot. I don’t see FSN picking up the games though, on the plus side, if you live in the Milwaukee area there should be tickets available for that specific game.

What’re the chances of FSN picking up any of the 4(!!!) games that they aren’t showing for the rest of the season? Including the second-to-last game of the season against the Hawks at home! Could you imagine FOX or CBS not showing the second-to-last game of the Packers’ season if they were in a playoff hunt? This state would detonate.

He did, and it was on one, because he only hit one. I was equally as confused, but wrote it off to over excitement.

I think Jennings broke out the “monocle” on at least one 2-pointer, and I was left somewhat confused.
