re: Simmons had a bad game and still had a double double

Here's the gripe, all of this is true...
And yet the "best NBA prospect of the last many years" is content with passing the ball to these guys and letting the fate of our team rest on them, instead of trying to carry the team himself. A perfect example was when the team was down 10, with 7 seconds left on the play clock, Bennie had the ball in his hands, yet instead of trying to score the ball he passed to Darcy 13 feet away from the goal, who predictably did not score. Michael Jordan didn't pass the ball to Luc Longley when the team needed a basket.

Victor- 10 points, foul trouble very early and had to sit
Hornsby- 8 points and went 3/7 from he field
Gray- 3 points and 2 assists
Blakeney- 7 points, 1 assist, 1 rebound
Patterson- 1/5 from the field for only 3 points
Malone and Robinson combined for a whopping 4 points and 6 rebounds and 5 fouls

I don't disagree with your criticism. I wish he'd take over. But his lack of a jump shot has hurt this team and his ability to take over at times. But it hasn't hurt LSU enough to lose games because he does so many other things well.
This team just isn't very well coached or very talented top to bottom.

He would rather pass than take bad shots. A&M clicked the paint all night and dared us to beat them from outside. We shot the 3 like shite. Thad how you beat us.
Simmons passes really well. He plays in the post really well. He rebounds well. But he doesn't have a jump shot yet.

19 year old Ben Simmons was just criticized by not being as selfish as 31 year old Michael Jordan.
I've seen it all tonight. God Bless LSU fans.
