'Member when people thought Simmons wasn't that great and then we realized he made an absolutely awful team not that bad?

No one thought this. Expectations was making the tournament and maybe make a run if matchups were good.

Was that the game that a 19-14 LSU team lost by 2 to a final four team?

Member when Johnny Jones went through 4 McDonald's all Americans in 3 years and made 1 NCAA tourney game? Then blew a 15 point lead with 6 minutes left and choked the game away.

Do you really think that was the consensus?

Not many people thought that.

I don't remember anyone who knows LSU MBB thinking or saying LSU had a legit shot at the Final Four. We were a preseason pick of 4th in the SEC.

Yeah the same game some Simmons fanboy said Oklahoma beats LSU even if Heild doesn't play.

No. I remember people thinking we could have a Sweet 16 type team at the beginning of the season, but never, was thers a time when sane people thought LSU was a "legit" Final 4 contender.

For you to say and believe Buddy Hield is better than Ben Simmons says everything about your knowledge of basketball.
