    I do wonder about this. Sure Simons will be star struck a bit, but he is 6'2.25" 183 lbs. (combine)

    Trae Young was 6'0.5" and 178 lbs
    Collin Sexton was 6'0.5" and 183 lbs
    Shai G-A was 6'4.5" and 180 lbs
    Holiday was 6' and 187 lbs

    And Napier is listed at 6'1" 175

    It's not like Simons is a stick figure.

    That's going to be like Tyson and . . . almost anyone in his early career.

    I think he views it as not being allowed to do his job. He doesn't strike me as egotistical, but
    I don't really know.

    Wouldn't it make sense, if you didn't want to be tipped, to just not look at twitter for a bit?

    He was essentially reading his tweets verbatim on the ESPN broadcast. Couldn't even mute him/Shams on twitter. I guess it's much ado about nothing. He just comes off as an ass.

    Perhaps. But his career is based on having those scoops. If he's sitting on information and someone else is out there posting it instead of him, he loses his value.

    And as I mentioned previously, he looks a lot like Fultz.

    Remember when most people put the "project" label on LMA even though he was very physically ready coming into the league? Far too many people believe what they read and can't use their own eyes.

    The 2 rooks, PapaG, and Collins are too young to go into a bar, lol.

    Damn I want to go to Summer League this year. If it were one week later, I'd already be booked.

    This is really damaging to Woj and others if true:
    Guaranteed there are no woj-bombs next year.

    That's not on woj, though. If you're the bucks, don't tell someone who you're taking if you're in trade talks
