He looks sluggish right now. Jet lag could be getting to him. He will turn it on in the 2nd half though

They are 100% comfortable getting him the ball in the open court. Guess with his decision making skills you are cool with that.

OF COURSE!! I LOVE the kid!!! I realize he's being double-teamed and he's probably fatigued a bit.. I'm selfish!! I want him to dominate all the time!!

I feel for him... He had some big workouts all week with McDonalds AA and now a tournament like this... Gotta be feeling it.

How is Noah Dickerson playing? Tigerbait brought up a good point that Billy Donovan leaving could re-open his recruitment

He's killing it. I really wish we had gotten him.

Benny just got the ball in the post and slammed it down hard! Awesome.

yeah he looks tired out there and they are basically playing him 2 on 1 every possession on the offensive side....giving the entire time open looks except Ben.

Simmons just finished his double double with 10 and 10.

And finishes the game with 15 and 11. Solid outting for him. He was double teamed, but came through when his team needed him.

2 central on ESPN2 I expect a much better game from Benny. He missed a lot of bunnies today but was doubled and tripled most of the game.

He tweeted out that he only slept 1 hour in between the McDonalds All American game and his game last night... Hopefully he was able to get some much needed sleep and get ready for today's game.

Even before the game I told all my friends he was a machine. I understand that there were other players in the same position as him, but whoever watched the games should quickly be able to realize simmons is treated differently. By that, I mean he is literally double teamed, elbowed, bumped, drawing contact the entire game. And he doesn't come out of the game. He's gonna kill it today.

I was happy he got to rest the last 40 seconds of the game yesterday cause that was his only time on the bench.

It seems like he will coast as a freshman since he'll only be worried about LSU basketball and not all these camps, AAU, tournaments, all star games, etc
