    Ben Simmons
    Is he the most over hyped player ever? Or am I just saying this because i have a bet on LSU?

        Greatest college player of all time, he can shoot the lights out from everywhere and is so clutch he will probably go down as the greatest player ever to hold a basketball. He is sooooooooo good I just can't stop talking about how good he is.

          You guys all do the same shit every year.

          Same threads 2 years ago wheneve Wiggins had a bad game at Kansas. He's made out pretty good so far. Averaging 21 ppg at the age of 21.

          Simmons will be a stud. His shooting needs work but 6'10" guys with elite passing ability and great rebounding don't grow on trees. He's a unique talent and will be an awesome player when he develops his game more fully.

            Pretty easy when you can't make a fukking basket.

            Simmons made a few nice passes but no one can shoot worth shit. The NBA game will be much better suited for him. College fouls are mostly bullshit. You can't even really basketball in college without a damn whistle.

                and he can dribble the ball. He doesn't seem to have that killer instinct but there's reason why he's the prohibitive #1 pick.

                  He's the least impressive #1 prospect I have watched.
                  He will be the 1st player to go #1 & NOT play in the tournament, since the 64 team format.

                      He would be crazy to stay another year though. Will hurt his development but he only runs the risk of not going #1 if he stays.

                          He ain't no Magic Johnson but his game is really not suited for the college game. The college game has really changed alot since the 1980's. It really sucks IMO.

                            Stay another year to be coached by lousy Johnnie Jones. Are you kidding me? He will be the #1 pick which means millions of dollars and able to play with competent teammates.

                                      LSU is 4 for their last 42... I shit you not. 4 for 42. It's like an NBA team playing a junior high school team.

                                      Simmons brings the ball up the court, drives to the basket, 3 guys converge, he makes the correct pass to an open guard for a wide open 3, CLANK. He gets the rebound, makes another move and dishes the ball on the baseline for what should be an easy layup/dunk, his teammate puts up a weak ass shot that is blocked. He gets another rebound and dishes to another wide open guard for another easy 3, BRICK. A&M ball. Very next possession, same thing, he dribbles, drives, dishes and his teammate clanks the shot.

                                      Now he has missed a bunch of shots too. He's having a hard time finishing at the rim, easy bunnies. He took a shot in traffic that got blocked easily and his free throw shooting is awful, 2 of 5 thus far. He refuses to force shots which he has too with this lousy team.

                                          Not true, Michael Olowokandi out of Pacific. And that does not include the several Euros and high school guys drafted #1.

                                            Wizzle seriously pal, he is a post player and your argument for him being great is because he is a good passer and rebounder? Every top post prospect, not being hyped up, can pass and rebound. The difference is those players can actually shoot a basketball. Sorry but if you are that hyped up and playing D1 basketball being called the #1 pick shouldn't you already know how to shoot a basketball? I mean teams don't even guard him unless he is 3 feet from the basket because they know he has no jump shoot whatsoever.

                                                  Shaq was not all that good his freshman year. Simmons probably better overall. He's loved because of his skill set. Still has a lot of development to do.

                                                    Kevin Durant couldn't bench press 90 lbs the year he came out.

                                                    He does seem overrated though. I like guys that win like Magic Johnson and he has not been able to will his team to wins.

                                                        I think he's a bust

                                                        These foreign players are hit or miss

                                                          this entire draft i think will go down as a huge bust

                                                              Bet he wonders to himself "Why did I come here???"

                                                              How many schools/coaches could he have gone to and actually grown a bit as a player AND have a shot a a title???

Every top post prospect, not being hyped up, can pass and rebound. The difference is those players can actually shoot a basketball. Sorry but if you are that hyped up and playing D1 basketball being called the #1 pick shouldn't you already know how to shoot a basketball? I mean teams don't even guard him unless he is 3 feet from the basket because they know he has no jump shoot whatsoever.

Maybe he becomes a star in nba but I doubt it. He will be just another player that goes to the league esrly that no one hears from again.
