re: Who is the basketball recruit making headlines?

I think Simmons has a quicker first step than Lebron. I think he would beat Lebron in the 40, cones, or shuttle. Lebron was bigger and more muscular at the same age. Just not taller.

Lebron also did not have as good of an outside shot in HS. Simmons has decent range and will just get better. Some weight room time will bring him to a whole different level, though where he is now is freakish.

I also hope that Simmons pending arrival keeps some of the other kids in school, just for a chance to play with a kid of his caliber.
