    Rookie of the Year... Brandon Jennings!

    Without a doubt! How did he get drafted at #10?!? What a steal!

    I just about to post the same thing. This kid is solid. It's a shoe in. Are books still accepting rookie of the years?

    Bucks over 28 wins looking real good. It's early but if Jennings stays healthy who knows what this team can do.

    what's the all-time high for points scored by a rookie in a game? can't be much more than 55, if that's not the most.

    Looking very safe at the moment, especially if Bogut keeps playing well.

    Most points in a game by a rookie:

    - 58 by Wilt Chamberlain, January 25, 1960
    - 58 by Wilt Chamberlain, February 21, 1960

    Yea they said he broke Kareem's bucks record. Not sure about the league record. In a point guard heavy draft he is outshining all of them.(Curry, Evens, Lawson, Manor, Holliday)

    He broke another record though...

    Youngest player to score 50 or more points in a game:

    - LeBron James scored 56 points against the Toronto Raptors at the age of 20 years, 80 days.

    Jennings is born September 23, 1989 which means he is something like 20 years and 50 days

    man, you can't be in better company. he'll take second to wilt any day for that record. and they still play teams that don't play defense, like the knicks and others, so who knows what might happen.

    Tyreke Evans could win it also the way things are shaping up but this Jennings kid is basically a young Iverson all over again, the speed and quickness and the size is all Iverson, even the volume of shots, which means I don't know about him and his attitude in the long run, but for now he looks great.

    Tyreke Evans is doing some wonderful things in Sacramento... I like brandon jennings far more (I've been on brandon jennings since high school...) because he's sooooo much like A.I. it's ridic... and he has a way better attitude than Allen as well... for example, the bucks had an off day today and he still shot his 500+ shots or however many the article I read said... he doesn't believe in off days because he got used to not having them in Europe. Jennings will win ROY assuming he stays healthy... and he's growing into my favorite player very quickly...

    I've watched him play every game but the 55 points one and I'll watch the replay of it on league pass if I can get enough time to (at least the 3rd quarter). The kid is special. I can't wait to see what the bucks can do when Redd gets back, just like I can't wait to see what the Kings can do once K-Mart gets back...
