All of those pg had good shooting percentages so when they shot, the ball went in the hoop. Jennings shoots under 40% for his career. No player shooting 39% and on pace for 250-300 turnovers is a good player.

So as a Coach what do You do? tell Him not to shoot period, or limit his shots? He has been taking less shots since this current slide.

still :snoop: at this terrible play, Cheeks should be fired for that alone. I would have rather had Jennings pull up off of a PNR or give it to Monroe for a 1on1 matchup on the block instead of Smith not taking advantage of a smaller player. SMH at the lineup on the floor at the time. The last two coaching hires weren't even on Joe, all ownership.

No Monroe on the team and Smiff makes shots like those.

Even Flip Saunders would have had this squad playing better, he was only let go because Billups and Co felt they could coach themselves/didnt want to change due to their experience. Young cats like we have now would buy in.

Its not about how many shots he takes, its the type of shots he takes bruh. Last night, in the 1st qurter my face was stuck in :dahell: mode. His 1st 5 shots were some of the dumbest shyt I have ever seen. Dude has no J, but insists on pulling up over and over again. Even when they swing the rock around the perimeter, not even necessarily for a shot, nikka catches the ball off a swing around and immediately chucks a jumper with a defender in his face. You swing the rock to get the open shot, not a contested one.

Smith and Jennings look like they're point shaving to start the second half.

Jennings is absolute trash
On the bright side, it looks like we'll be keeping our lottery pick instead of shipping it to Charlotte. The problem is, even if he turns out to be a flat out stud, he's more than likely gonna be playing with Jennings and Smith, so it may nullify whatever impact he could possibly have.
