    I thought he was going to suck because he couldn't shoot?

    Dame hasn't had a single triple double in 5+ seasons. Crazy

    I doubt you can find anyone who actually said that he would suck because he couldn't shoot. It would limit his potential if he can't find a consistant shot, just look at Rubio guy would be one of the best PG's in the league if he could shoot, but Simmons is going to be a top tier player whether he finds a consistent J or not.

    Simmons is 6'10" and playing PG. Good luck guarding him.

    Yeah Simmons was very impressive last night. Not sure if Fultz was the right pick for them. It seems like Simmons is a PG all the way. They could play him with two shooting guards, but they might as well go big and just use him like Magic.

    I'll admit, I didn't watch him much in college but his shooting form is WORSE than Lonzo. IMO there's no fixing it.. It is UGLY ADONAL FOYLE

    Nobody needs to be suspended or fined for that. Technicals would've solved everything.

    Suspension for what? Double techs. Chalmers flops crashes on the ground and starts trying to trip Harden with his legs. If anything HE should have got kicked out, but Harden should at least get a T for the retaliation shove.

    This is why I don't understand the hate being aimed at Ball and not this kid. It is solely based on people feelings about his assface dad and most can't admit it.
