Brandon Jennings Thriving Under Coach Skiles' System
Interesting article from NBA.com about the rise of Brandon Jennings and the success to date of Coach Skiles' approach to the rookie. Apparently Coach Skiles gives him the freedom to run the show but still teaches. So far it's paying off. This is interesting in part because in Chicago at least Coach Skiles was known for yanking players at any time.

Yeah, kinda weird
Skiles is a defensive-minded coach, much like MDSr, who loves to be in control. Both in PHX and CHI, he wasn’t exactly a “players coach”. He rewards players who hustle….he’s a guy that would start a QRoss…or a Luc Richard Mbah a Moute. Hard to see a supposedly freewheelin Jennings thrive in such an environment, but he has. Maybe Jennings is really mature….and the true Gem of the draft.
This is going to be my team, and we're going to rise together.
