Who will be the Bucks leading scorer?

Now that the season is underway, who do you think will be the Bucks leading scorer at the end of the season? That is, total points not ppg.

 

I'd love to say Jennings, however he's too young and inexperienced so I think I'm going to have to go with Redd. They give him all the touches he needs. Even with this early injury I think he will easily be our leading scorer if he can stay healthy the rest of the way (and that's a big if). Jennings might be a close second or third (depending on how Bogut turns his start around) as long as he stays in the starting roll.

 

So OTR, who do you think will lead the Bucks in scoring this year?

Well Jennings won't score 19 a game all year most likely, but he could average around 13-15, so to say he might get the most overall points is not far off. If Redd misses significant time then Jennings is definitely the favourite, no one else does much of anything for the Bucks, they should just clean house and start over with Jennings he looks like the real deal so far.

 

I would be surprised if Redd was still a Buck after the trade deadline this year.

 

Good to see the Bucks playing their young gun in Jennings though, thought Ridnour would be getting the bulk of the minutes to start the year.

 

EDIT- Damn Jennings is already shooting a kinda [expletive]ty percentage, if Redd goes down that is a lot of shots to replace, Jennings could actually average damn near 20 a game long term if he is a chucker.

why dont they play alexander? this guy can score. i know last year he made some mistakes on the defensive end but his not going to learn much sitting on the bench. i dont think he has been activated once this season bucks are not going to the playoffs might as well develop some youth to try and attract some FA

I think we have a shot at the playoffs. Also, I think Alexander may still be injured as I know he was for the first two games. He'll get his minutes, just give him time to recover.

Wow, Brandon Jennings is playing phenomenal right now. He may not be experienced in the NBA but he's been in a pro league before averaging 5.5 ppg and 2.3 apg. He's right when when he said that he has sort of an advantage over rookies for this experience.

 

Btw in googling him for his euro stats I read someone say this and I chuckled.

He needs opportunity. I think he will be an Iverson like player in a way. On and off the court.

Ya I can't believe how good he is playing, but didn't Mayo have a start like this too last year? I'm not saying he will, but it is pretty likely he will hit a rookie wall eventually. Lucky for him he won't get the hook and will be allowed to play through it because there isn't anyone to replace him.

 

I wonder if this will lead to more players going to Europe to play, while it may have hurt his draft stock, it definitely helped get him better prepared for the NBA game.
