That's really awesome.

I sent the link to a friend who had never seen him play. After watching he immediately said: Nick Van Exel. I hadn't seen that comparison around here but I like it.

Nice mix. While it's summer league games it's still pretty apparent that he has excellent court vision and his timing on both ends (did he really pick Evans that many times?) is pretty nice.

Yes.

I actually kind of felt bad for Evans, it was semi-embarrassing.

I think a NVE comparison is a decent one. He was so fun to watch.

Yea, but Evans got the better of him when he was down low. It was a a typical SG vs PG matchup. Yes, I think Evans is a SG

What does that mean?

Tyreke should have the advantage on Brandon down low. But on the perimeter Brandon stripped him on many occasions and that is what matters.

In the season Skiles will have him switch where he is more on the perimeter defensively with those quick hands and feet. He will be a league leader in steals and is a great on the ball defender.

I have no idea why many considers him a PG when he has a terrible handle and limited court vision and awareness. He can make an ok SG but Sacramento like I said before, botched that pick.

They should have taken Rubio unless they are going to move Garcia, or KMartin down the road if not Beno Udrich because Sergio Rodriguez has to play.

I wonder how the refs are gonna call his steals during the season. I can see him getting screwed over quite a bit.

I enjoyed the staggered clips of Jennings' torment of Evans at points throughout the video, accompanied by a slow motion and black & white effect, all shot from behind. It created ominousness, but like in a very funny, ironic way. Like, oh no, here it comes again!

How do you get access to some of this footage? You must be a close friend to be documenting his experiences, or his brother.

He didn't dunk once in the Summer League, did he?

Jennings has some serious hops, I want to see him posterize someone. :D

I don't think that's part of his offensive repertoire in the halfcourt, outside of a rare occasion. You might have to wait for a clear breakaway.

Yeah, all his dunks highlights were warmups or breakaways. Pretty tough to have enough hops at 6-1 to dunk over someone in traffic. Iverson could do it in his early years, but he was a rare specimen athletically.
