Darington Hobson gets an F–.. Is there any question that Bogut is team MVP? A little hard on Jennings

I give myself an A for missing this game.

@Ian_Segovia I consider giving a ‘C’ to someone who didn’t play at all severely wrong when you graded the best player on the court with a C-.

@Ian_Segovia@treego14 I’m not giving up on him … I’m not seeing anything from him as of yet that makes me think he’s anything but another miserable first-round pick, though.

Jennings a C-? He deserves at least a B for this game comparing how the rest of the team did. Sure he didnt make many assists but the team shot so-so & turned the ball over too many times. Also why did leuer play only 13 mins? Makes no sense when guys like harris/hobson/sanders got 18mins for the game, did he get injured?That aside, I wish the bucks would just tank the season & win about 15-20 games to save some face. Then hope for the best in the lotto for a top 5 pick & pray they work out.

@treego14 I’m not giving anyone a good grade in a 26 pt blowout that wasn’t even that close. Also, the HTML generator we use to create these recaps won’t allow me to not give a grade, but I wanted to comment on Bogut.

Also I’m wondering why you’re so quick to give up on a 19 year old who hasn’t even played a hundred minutes in the NBA.

@treego14 i agree with you on Jennings I thought he played very well. Only rushed 1 shot that i recall and made good decisions passing the ball, 19 points in 26 minutes is definitely not something that deserves a C+ his effort was there too, it wasnt his decision not to play if it were up to him he’d probably play 48 minutes a night. Jennings has the best motor on the team, he’s always giving 100%. Jackson usually gives 100% but there are also times where he gets a little whiny when things don’t go his way.Usually he uses it to fuel himself in a positive way but in games like 2nite Jack just seemed disinterested.

I thought it was unfair to sit Brandon when he was playing very well, in fact I think it’s a bit ridiculous to just mail it in altogether like they did 2nite. I understand they want to save guys energy due to the shortened season but they are still professionals and you play to win the game. Are you really developing your young players that much by playing them for extended minutes against guys like Brian Cardinal, Brandon Wright and Yi Jianlian? Watching the lineup of Hobson, Harris, Livingston, Brockman and Sanders is just painful. I hope I never have to see it again. I’m all for sprinkling in some PT for those guys now and then, but playing extended minutes with each other, they’re not going to get any better.

No disrespect to Livingston, he is a fine player and is money with that 10 foot jumper, but with those guys on the court you have no1 who can attack and score, no1 who with a consistent jumper outside of Livingston’s 10 footer. It’s just an overall train wreck to watch and I’d rather see the team go down with a fight personally, and I know Jennings wants to play and he should have been out there, it’s a joke that he wasn’t. I’m not an NBA coach and I respect Scott Skiles but 2nite made zero sense to me

How does one get a ‘C’ for not playing the game? lol!

Brandon Jennings gets a C-, though, for being the best player on the court for the Bucks? Wow!

Harris earned an F. He flunked tonight. He didn’t do anything well tonight … except make a few FT’s.

I thought Jackson deserved an F, also. He had as many TO’s as points, almost. Ouch!
