After This Video It Seems Like Brandon jennings Will Become One Of The Players That Will Be Hurt With Suspensions and maybe legal woes…..he could change but he needs to change now, for a Big Time Player He Got A Big Time Mouth, and he needs to change immedietly

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

i would have a problem with that if he knew he was being recorder..thats some sneak sh*t that buddens did…i dont even understand why he would record that…i have zero problems with what brandon said because most if not all nba players say things liek that when they dont think it is being recorded

[BasketballGuru24Participant]

Yeaa Buddens, Is Actually Pretty Weak For Doing This……..For A Hadcore Rapper, Shyt Like This Is Known As Snitching In Some Cases and Can Get You In Some Serious Stufff……People even Threatened budden, saying if he comes to a milwackee game, they Will ” Lay His Ass”, but Jennings Needs to know that lil stuff like can start off his career in the wrong way, so this dude got to check himself ASAP!

[Tobe BryantParticipant]

Damn…Young Money opened his mouth a little too much on that one. Its too early in his career to be blowing up the way that he did. Man..the kid gone have to do his thing this year to make folks forget bout this one. He definitely gone catch it when he go to New York. Them fans up there hell….lol…

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

how do you check youre self when you dont know you are being recorded..he did nothing wrong in this instant..theres a couple nba players,euro players, college players who ive worked out with who have said some stuff alot worst then this about other players even there own teammates but i would never record them or even call there names out like that

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

my thing is why arent peopel getting on rubio for saying he wants to only go to this or that team and wont report in to the team that drafted him..back when francis said he didnt wanna play for a team everyone gave him hell…whats really good with that????

[butidonthavemoney]

You can’t expect these kids to transform into goodie-goddie-two-shoes as soon as they get drafted.

His maturity will come…. hopefully.

[butidonthavemoney]

People are getting on Rubio, where have you been the last week?

I think both Rubio and Jennings are being hated on for unjust reasons.

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

its seems once the media calls some one a bad or immarute kid everything is blown way out of porportion..but if they lioek him( chris paul) they hide it…there were a coupel of instances paul spit on a player threw a intentional elbow and even hit hodge in the nuts and all that was barely mention…im willing to bet when j.tyler comes to the leauge because he went against the grain things he did will be blown up more then it should

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

people are barely gettign on rubiol..big different then how people are gettign on jennings

[Michael.S.Participant]

are 2 totally different things,and MANY players in every draft show that they dont want 2 go 2 certain places

[butidonthavemoney]

“Let me know when Minnesota get there so I can watch Rubio light your f*cking ass up!”

“Duhon ain’t gonna get it done…”

Classic.

[sheltwon3Participant]

The world is all about being fake if you in the spotlight and if you dont know you are being recorded you may say some stuff that will offend people. The thing is reality is not politically correct. The truth can sometimes offend. Jennings is still young. Everyone knows that one on one he and some of the other quick guards would work Rubio. Jenning would work Nash who is not know for defense but Nash and Rubio can run teams. Also Rubio defense right now is better than anything Nash has done his career. Rubio just need to learn how to shoot and get some NBA game under his belt. Jennings should be careful not to be another Marbury.

[sheltwon3Participant]

Duhon is limited and everyone knows that. You do expect basketball players to watch the NBA and have opinions about players. This world is turning into a bunch of sensitive group therapy level people. I dont get how people that on a average day can not get along with people and expect rich people to do better than deal when most rich people get spoiled.

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

hmmmm i can half agree..after watching rubio for 2 years i notice ( as well a couple who have seen him consistantly) he has very big trouble with guards whol are quick have handles and athletic..he runs EURO team pretty well although people fail to mention he didnt always start even before and after injury and that he also lead spain in turnovers…i think only one sports writer mentioned some of these same things while the other said lil footnotes about rubios weaknesses..though jennings numbers were just a tad lower then rubio the difference is jennings already knows the ammerican game while rubio still has to learn because the euro game is alot different then the game over here

[llperez]

I’m not too worried about what Jennings said in this video because he did’nt know he was being taped and we all say stuff in private that we would’nt say out loud. But he should probably watch what he says from now on because if I was talking to a friend and said some stuff that would make me look bad and it ended up on the internet, I would be pissed at my so called friend. Jennings calling rubio all hype was weak because they are both competing for a job and he should just let his game do his talking. Trying to take money out of another players pocket by trashing him in the media is dumb. Also, when Brandon said “f” the Knicks they’re always gonna suck, someone should have reminded him he is going to the bucks.

[sheltwon3Participant]

I pretty sure he said that in response to Joe Budden and being from that area. I doubt he has any problems with New York. It did not sound all that personally when he said it. If you are older and mature regardless of where you are from and who you are a fan of you need to be able to understand when someone is being personally or just saying stuff. I pretty sure if he is upset at team it would be all the teams that needed a point guard and passed on him.

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

tru..not much different from teams saying someone didnt have a good workout so the player can drop…not exactly cool to do but everything is a buisness in the nba not saying its right but it is what it is

[llperez]

there is a bit of a differnece though when a team says how they feel about a player and when a player calls another player out. If they were in the league already and were getting money, then go ahead and talk a little trash. But when you try to get a leg up on the competition while competing for a job by dissing him, that’s not cool.

Either way, none of this is that big a deal. I’m curious to see what kinda heart Rubio has, because if I was him I would want to go hard at Jennings next time they played.

[llperez]

you meant when a team intentionally disses a player so he drops to them. Yeah, that’s not cool either.

[xbadgerhustlerParticipant]

josh~ there is one huge difference between Francis and Rubio, RUBIO HAS TO PAY 6.6 million dollars if he comes to the NBA next year… so, while he is being a huge BITCH by not coming to MN, there’s at least some explanation for why he’d defer on the opportunity to be a back-up to the next great small pg, Johnny Flynn… but seriously. Rubio wouldn’t work out against any players in the pre-draft in an attempt to get picked high, and this would basically be like a 3 year workout against flynn in an attempt to get a huge 2nd deal.

the real question is: If Rubio is so great, why doesn’t he step up to the opportunity and SHOW WHAT HE CAN DO?! maybe he’s not that great.

As for Jennings, what a dumbass. I thought he had grown up a lot over in Europe, but I was wrong. Sure he was talking to a friend, but I would’ve hoped that he was bigger than that now-a-days. This just shows he’s still a petty, immature showboat.

And, it’s ironic because he was wrong and the Bucks didn’t extend the qualifying offer to Nueva, but did to Ramon. lol. What a waste of talent- I can see it coming light years in advance. I would bet $1,000 that Jennings never makes it outta the first round. Guys like him have no idea what it takes to win, they only know how to shower themselves in self-praise.

Narcissist I think is the best word to describe Jennings. I hope he comes off the bench for the next 3 years and Sessions is a perrenial all-star.

[JNixonParticipant]

The people that have a problem with what he said are basically saying, “You cant have an opinion on your co-workers”, so to speak. If anyone on here has a job, get me to believe you dont talk about your co-workers, yea right. Or if your a kid, get me to believe you dont talk about your classmates in school

[xbadgerhustlerParticipant]

it is the same thing, but professional athletes are held to different standards than the average person in all aspects of life. They are constantly followed by scrutiny and the public eye, but that’s why they get paid so damn much.

brandon jennings knows this.

it’s also a different ball game when you’re talking about your co-workers BEFORE you’ve ever met most of them.

[JNixonParticipant]

He’s seen them play, he doesnt have to talk so someone to know how talented they are.

[xbadgerhustlerParticipant]

lol, if you want to justify him talkin trash about his teammates/co-workers before he’s ever met them, go for it.

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

like i said before some of the nba /euro / college guys ive worked out with tak about peopel all the time knowing they arent being taped its done all the time badger..by vets rookies and guys not even in the pro’s yet..im pretty sure if all of us where taped saying things we wouldnt say in public it wouldnt make us look good..you really gonna hold it agains him because of something he said to a friend not knowing hes being taped …really? im guessing you never talk about youre boss family friends or anyone when its just you and a friend talking..nor litter jay walk or download music..give me a break….there is a big difference to being held to a higher standard in public and being able to say what you want to youre friends..i wonder how many college stars/nba players would be kicked off the team or in jail for what they do in private…as far as rubio and the buy out..even without that he wants to pick what team he wants to go to..each team can only pay the same amount toward his buyout

[xbadgerhustlerParticipant]

first of all, josh, i have definitely talked trash about coworkers in the past~ that doesn’t justify my actions. that said, i didn’t talk trash about my co-workers before i ever got to know them…

just because everyone else does it, doesn’t make it ok. he got caught, so it’s not outta line to say he was outta line in making those comments.

“as far as rubio and the buy out..even without that he wants to pick what team he wants to go to” what do u mean even without the buyout? that was my point, he DOES have a buyout so that is a factor in choosing whether or not to come to the NBA… if he waits to come until next year his buyout will be less…. it has nothing to do with how much the nba team will pay.

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

the thing is rubio let it be known from jump that he wants to go to certain teams..his agent let it be known that even with the buy out he would have reported to the knicks so the buyout is only a factor when its a team he doesnt want to go to….he knew about the buy out wayyyyy before the draft if that was the sole fator of him comming to the nba he wouldnt have even put his name into the draft..as far as jennings plenty rookies in the past have called out players they never met..matter of fact most peopel on here have never met nba players yet call them out daily but i bet if espn was interviewing people on here they wouldnt be saying the same thing…comments like that arent out of line when you are talking to a friend im willing to bet youre favorite player has said things while in college or as a rookie about another player before meeting them ..if you saying so and so is a bumm or im better then so and so to youre friends thats not a problem you are allowed to do that…the only problem here is fake a$$ buddens taped it like a undercover agent

[xbadgerhustlerParticipant]

definitely agree buddens was out of line…some friend…

still, just because other people do it, doesn’t make it ok. if you kill someone, it’s not justified because other people do it. if you have an unregistered gun, it’s not justified because other people have them…

but, we don’t discuss all the people who didn’t caught because they didn’t get caught…. if plaxico wouldn’t have shot himself, no one would be saying shit, but he DID get caught. same goes for jennings.

rubio does want to play for certain teams~ in that respect he is like Francis, you’re right. But, Francis was going to Vancouver and he wouldn’t have to pay anything to go play there. if rubio goes to the Twolves, he’s going to have to pay the buyout… so, how is that not a consideration… if he doesn’t play for the twolves next year, he won’t have to pay the buyout, if he does, he will have to pay it. Is that or is that not true? he’s saying that’s not a good situation for me to be in, i’m not going to PAY to be in that situation…that’s the difference.

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

how can u compare people saying they are better then other players to killing?…rubio has to pay where ever he goes he has to pay more next year…he knew this same issue..so if it was the main issue he would have just waited 2 years to put his name in the draft…the draft is a privilege not a right you play where u are drafted and you do what do to make the team better you dont/shouldnt have the option of where u wanna play this aint street ball..if you havnt played in the nba liek you said you shouldnt talk..same situation you shouldnt be decideing who or where u wanna play you havent proven that youre good enough to decide that yet ..and that would be my point with jennings if all this was said in the open.since it was said in private i dont hold it against him what so ever because thats something that was said in private an opnion in private. and too many FANatics wanna judge what someone says in privite like they dont say anything like that in private…now if someone has a problem with it that says nothing of the sort in private then thats a different story but whens its people who do the same thing but because they never been taped they wanna put there 2 cents in like they are perfect then thats wrong….it would be no different for me to jump all over someone for jay walking and being caught on tape when i have done it before my self…or saying a player is not that good or a team( i say the clippers suck all the time as well as other teams and players) so i have zero right to critizie some one who does the same but got taped doing it

[xbadgerhustlerParticipant]

was jennings right or wrong in saying those things about his teammates? even if you’re being a hypocrit in saying he was wrong, he was wrong.

i never said the buyout is the main reason rubio doesn’t wan to play in MN, but it is a factor. If he doesn’t come play next year, his buyout will be LESS in 2010… which makes his situation different than FRancis’

[GoJOSH HUESTISParticipant]

very well put josh…thes fanatics kill me with there holyer then though attitude that they feel yeah i do it but if the athlete does it im gonna bash them ..its really said that fans do that…i almost jumped on brandon but then i realized i talk about the knicks like dogs as well as duhon..i remeber being in the gym with alondo tucker and chris paul before either were drafted( diferent times of course) and i remeber alondo saying all these players he was better then and paul talking about how he would give iverson the buisness and siah thomas would get worked and shut down by him..if it was taped without either player knowing then fans would have jumped over them tooo..ive heard soooooooo many players talk about how better they are then other players especially during the summer time before they even have proven anything..thats the nature of basketball it has been and will be going on for as long as there is basketball…i know when i go into the gym and i have seen a player play before and i think im better im telling my friends( ill destroy him if hes checking me) or “hes the weak link on that team…and im starting to not like rubio..he knew about his buy out vefore the draft and it would be no problem if he went to a team he wanted to go to..jennings went to the bucks who suck and have sessions yet he still reported and is willing to accept the challenege…i do agree with badger about flynn though..he is very very good and rubio should be scared to go there..lol

[Stanford hoopsParticipant]

i have no problem with him saying that to a friend i know ive told my friends a couple times that im better or a teammate shoul dbe gone because im comming there before i came there..thats just the confidence that i have….yea jakarii i think flynn is underrated..i really really like his game

[xbadgerhustlerParticipant]

josh and jakari, all im saying is that just cuz everyone does it, doesn’t make it right, whether that’s hypocritical or not. you should not trash your teammates before you get there… talking shit about the NY Knicks… that’s most definitely allowed. i think it’s going into a situation with the wrong attitude if you’re trashing your teammates before you even get there. I think it’s a good attitude trashing other teams and saying your better than people BESIDES your teammates.. thats all

[Tobe BryantParticipant]

I got no problem with him either, you know how the media do though. They gone twist that into immaturity and attitude as soon as they get ahold of it. Come on now yall. BJ is one of my favorite players by the way so yall just BE EASY…lol
