6'10 athletes who rebound like bigs and handle & pass like guards don't grow on trees

but he has to work on his shooting and his personality. quite a bit
The NBA is all about spacing and shooting now. NBA teams will defend him like we did today, greatly reducing his driving lanes. If he ends up with the Sixers he will never sniff an All-Star game.

From the way he played today, I think Simmons has just been biding his time in college. The one year out of high school rule penalizes players like Simmons who could just step in and play for pay. Coasting has a cost though. I remember the trumpeter Wynton Marsalis advising young players to always play their best. Develop good habits. He should have spent this year learning how to shoot better.

Bro, come on man...
Simmons went to LSU to be the center of attention.. He chose to be a loser.. He'll make more money than I ever will but he could have helped a good team win a National Championship.. He chose to lose.. That's what I meant say.. I was hacked by some drunk guy! lol

said if you touch him it's a foul, and called Moody at Ole Miss a better PG.
Simmons doesn't show a lot of emotion but acts like a kid that has been spoon fed and wore diapers to long when talking to the press. I saw a clip where he said he didn't care what the press said about the Wooden award, he knew he was the best player in college, he may be, but you don't say things like that in public as a freshman. That tells you Jones has no influence in the way he presents himself to the press. As for him saying that about Ulis, that's just sour grapes, he gets away with more than anybody in college basketball as for getting touched and fouls called. He made the decision to go to LSU, now he has to live with it, meaning watching the NCAA's on tv more than likely.

Funny thing is Simmons really never got any better during his year at LSU. It would be hard to imagine the player he would've been playing along side Ulis. He'd also be more acclimated to the pressure of stardom entering the NBA. The guy made a huge mistake and no one cares about his opinions.. He played on a team that should've easily made the Big Dance and he and his coach and teammates failed to get it done.

Not very smart of Simmons. Who knows someday down the road Ulis and Simmons may be team mates in the NBA. Ulis is the point guard and Simmons keeps waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting for the pass that always finds its way to the other three players on the floor.

[laughing] Dude scores 30% of his points from the free throw line. Ulis and Murray combined have only taken 14 more free throws than him. Pretty sure he's a sore loser and has no room to talk.

I just had this delicious thought
You have seen how our players are all brothers - whether they played on the same team or not. Simmons will be in the NBA next year - but he'll be playing with and against UK players. Our former players might just be a bit protective and take exception to the comments about Ulis. Wouldn't that be lovely?
What an evil little thought.
They were talking about Ben's quote on Gameday just now, and Jay Bilas said " How do they know, they didn't guard anybody today "....... Classic !!!
Nice! Yet Jay is still a tool. He used to have some nads.

Hey, has anyone checked how many free throws he's taken compared to Ullis and Murray combined? Also, where do nearly 1/3 of his points come from? Sorry but those stats have been posted a few times already in the thread.

I thank Simmons is over rated yes he is a big man who can handle the ball like a guard , does not have a outside shot , not really a post up guy, if I was selecting, I would rather have Murray or Ulis by far..

Hey, sorry, but instead of reading through four pages of comments, I just skipped straight to the part where I posted my thoughts on the subject.

Don't like it? Oh well, get over it. I'm glad my post wasted three seconds of your life, forcing you to read about things that have already been posted. You're welcome.

Hey genius, the point of a thread is that it's linked or threaded together. Don't want to read the thread and sound like a fool? You seem to have that down. If you want to just make stupid comments in reply to thread titles, then start a new thread. Hey, btw, did you know there's a book alleging ul used escorts?
Btw, I never thanked you for anything but your welcome in advance for the new, insightful knowledge of how a thread works.
Can the mods start banning those who openly admit to being dum...eh. Nm, will leave our board nearly empty.

Yeah, just make sure you read every single post in that thread before posting in it; otherwise, you're a fool that has no knowledge of how a thread works and needs to be banned.
