Both Jennings AND Bogut are key to the Bucks succeeding. So any talk of trading him after a dissappointing 2nd year, when you remember that both he (and the Big Unit) were injured last season, is nothing short of STUPID!

Ted is right, Center isnt the Face of the Franchise for a lot of teams, maybe orlando , but other than that. hell no. And lets not get it twisted , the Best player on Milwakee is John Salmons,

@Jake

No sadly he is not, just because his name gets called last during pre game intros does not make him the face of the franchise. He’s their best player, but as far as attracting fans and selling memorabilia Bogut is not as valuable to the Milwaukee Bucks as Brandon Jennings is. Right now when people think of the Milwaukee Bucks they think of Jennings. The position of Point Guard is the most highly coveted position in the NBA. Teams aren’t building for the future around a big man like they used to back in the day. Center is a dying position in the NBA. Being the face of the franchise does not mean you are it’s best player, I think you are misinterpreting what face of the franchise means

You are a moron. Jennings is not the face of the franchise- Bogut is.

@Ted It's a two way street. It could derail him, but it could motivate him also. Everyone needs a kick in the ass here and there -- athletes included. But yeah, Jennings is certainly out performing his contract, even with slightly above average play. His value remains high in that aspect.

I think this is potentially dangerous, Jennings is currently the face of this franchise, and has loved being “the guy” in Milwaukee and seems to have really embraced being a Milwaukee Buck. Granted it doesn’t sound like there is much to this rumor at all, but I feel that if Jennings somehow took a rumor like this as “they don’t want me here” he could potentially end up pulling a marbury. Also I think Jennings is the last person on the team they should trade right now with the Bucks salary cap situation where it currently is.
