17.9/3.6/6.2 on 0.383/0.391/0.826%
I'll take that from a rookie. I wish Rockets had Jennings

That 55 was a curse more then a blessing. He's getting so much criticism now cause everyone expects so much from him. He got hot one night, had the greenlight and dropped 55, nothing to see here.

If it wasn't for the FG% he is having an incredible season for a rookie. He has done well at times since the 55 point game, but the like people have said, the 55 point game was a curse because now people expect him to put up Kobe like scoring numbers.
If he finishes more inside the arc he could be an all star in a couple of years. Right now his 3 point% is higher than his field goal.:lol
Yeah I am one non Bucks fan who is pissed that he is not doing as well as he did the first week of the season. I snagged him onto my fantasy team the day he scored 55 points. I was so excited. He still gets me a lot of steals, 3's, and assists but he kills my FG%

jennings actually had a pretty good game before this one, 18 points (50% shooting) and 13 assists. he is just very inconsistent right now with his shots.

He's averaging just over 13 ppg on 31% FG for January... I don't think this is counting tonight's abysmal stats...
He'll get better, but this is a bit disappointing.

Jennings dropped 55 with Corey Magette playing center. Don't mean shit.

Haters gonna hate. This dude will be better than Tony Parker for sure, he's naturally gifted, all the technical stuff will be resolved in due time.

It was a just a little provocative but still.
With Ellis sidelined Curry took much more responsabilities and he is delivering showing a huge upside. he is more a consistent shooter, for a pg he is rebounding the ball damn well (ala hill) and IMO he is a better defender. Jennings is a better passer and player maker but all in all I think Curry is more complete with no major weakness even if he needs to improve his passing. Both are playing for shitty teams.
Globally we are making a lot of noise around Jennings because of the 55 pts and Curry is severely underated.

Well, Curry is underrated, but you have to remember there is not a lot of pressure on him to play as the man. Ellis and Maggette were playing out of their mind, and are the true number one and two on their team. Without Jennings, I would like to see the Bucks actually score. With so much concentration on Jennings' scoring ability, people forget he is a pretty good thief as well, and his underrated playmaking ability. He is not as good on the stealing department as Curry though. That guy is smart on the court.

With Ellis injury Curry took the scoring load he gave 25 pts the last 5 games. Without Ellis Curry is GSW number 2 scorer but I agree Jennings has more pressure than Curry.

Kobe scored 81 points on jose calderon and 40 yar old jalen rose defense means shit?

Jennings has a green light to pretty much shoot as much as he wants, wherever he wants. im sure other rookies could put up similar or superior numbers to him with that kind of freedom. hes good, but ive never been that impressed with him, because all he wants to do is run around and shoot jumpers.

No one knew he was that good of a scorer and shooter headed into the NBA, he was thought of as a great passer, playmaker and ball handler while being considered an average scorer. I imagine teams eventually got tape and started to include Brandon Jennings as a scorer in their scouting report. He needs to adjust better and stop trying to force it so much.

Since Beaubois put the clamps on Jennings back in OT vs Mavs back in November after that 55pt explosion

His numbers has been down ever since Michael Redd came back and started jacking up shots. Now with Redd gone we should see Jenning's shot attempts increase.
