re: Charles Barkley says Ben Simmons isn't ready for the NBA

Why can you people not get this? Whoever drafts him is not drafting 19 year old Ben Simmons. They are drafting 24-30 year old Ben Simmons that will be NBA ready. It is not that hard to comprehend. He is 6'10" that can run and handle the ball like a point guard and his biggest flaw is he can't shoot well. News flash shooting is the last thing that basketball players develop.
If you were in an unpaid intern position and someone offered you a job making millions of dollars that you might not be ready or qualified for but they think you can develop into a very good person at that position would you not take it?

Ben actually has a nice shooting form. If he would have taken outside shots consistently we all would have seen this. But he'd only take that shot if the time clock was an issue.
He will be an incredible NBA player soon.
