The NBA Draft Thread

I know no one wants to hear this but TJ McConnell was low key the best player on the court tonight.
Russell gon have some big games puttin up points but he always gon be food on defense ...he starting at point can't imagine what other pgs gon do to him during the regular season :x
 


Not sure if summer league or NBA Finals.

IT'S LIT!

To me yea. Couldnt finish inside besides 2 dunks, has NO vision & takes dumb unnecessary shots cuz of it

Hes good for a highlight dunk or block every now & then but as a player he just sucks

Damn :\

I dunno..I still got hope for him :lol:
 
Nothing more fun than truly generational passing talents.

Hopefully Ben doesn't get his] potetial derailed by lack of jumper like Rubio.

I love how Simmons affects the game.( One of the reason I liked him more than Ingram). but I need him to be more assertive on offense..I don't even care if he misses at this point..just take the shot.

Man I love his game.  I'm old school and can appreciate a throwback pg.  Sadly, those are rare nowadays.  If you're a pg that would rather quarterback a team, and not score 20 you're almost considered garbage nowadays.  
 
I honestly think Simmons is pacing himself in SL. He knows this dont matter much towards actual season success...or at least thats what i hope lol

lolwut why? Why do people keep saying this? :lol:

In highschool..oh he can shoot but he doesn't need to... it's highschool.

at LSU...oh he can't shoot, but he doesn't need to....team misses tournament.

Summer league...still won't shoot.



At some point we have to accept that he can't and won't shoot, maybe he learns but right now? non shooter.

Also struggling finishing against real NBA length but that was predictable.

I hope so too..but you would think if you use SL too work on your game..he would be taking more shots because that's the weakest part of his game..I rather him be working on his shot now than in the regular season..but I'm not going to overreact I'm just going to wait and see how he preform when the season starts.
 
I was gonna just say that Ben Simmons has been shown that he's been a great passer and good defender, but he leaves more to be desired as a scorer. Not reliable in clutch situations. Hopefully he can improve his jumpshot.

Exactly.


This is my only problem with him, otherwise he's obviously a generational talent.


I don't think the not wanting to shoot thing is just a phase.

Simmons is listed at 6'10" 240 lbs.

Embiid makes him look like a 15 year old boy. :x
 
Embiid 7'3 now.


Just praying his foot/back don't explode and we can see how great he can be.
