Milwaukee Bucks 2009 draft pick Brandon Jennings had a few choice words for the New York Knicks, fellow draft pick Ricky Rubio, and others during a conversation with rapper Joe Budden that was posted online.

Shortly after Thursday's NBA draft, Jennings appeared on Joe Budden TV, the rapper's live video stream. During their phone conversation, Jennings tells Joe Budden, "F--k the Knicks," presumably for not drafting him. He also goes on to criticize Knicks guard Chris Duhon. saying that he's not going to get it done.

Since it is a phone conversation, it is possible that Budden was speaking to someone other than Jennings. If it was indeed Jennings, it's unclear whether he knew the conversation was being recorded.

According to one a Jennings rep, the young point was unaware of what was going on.

"He did not know he was being taped and it's already been addressed to Brandon by the Milwaukee Bucks as well as Bill Duffy and BDA Sports,'' said Ilana Nunn, spokeswoman for Jennings' agency. "When you're not told your being taped, you don't know what's going on.''

Either way, Jennings will be more cautious of social media in the future. Jennings has already taken down his Twitter page, which is cached here.

I can't wait to see Jennings FAIL. He's the next Ed O'Bannon - except he was never as good as O'Bannon to begin with! Baha!
