I asked this on the More Sports Board instead of Rant to cut down on the idiocy.

So what kind of averages do we see out of him next year?

I'm thinking...

13 points
6.5 rebounds
6 assists

I can't see him scoring more than AD did his rookie year however he'll have the ball in his hands more so I can see something like 14 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assist.

Well. Durant put up 20.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists

I see Simmons being an equivalent rebounder, better playmaker, and less of a scorer in relation to Durant. If he goes to the 76ers he could get some time as a ball handler.

I actually kinda like your stats. May say just have 5 assists, although assists could fall if he still can't shoot and lacks the threat of doing so.

7.5 ppg

Solid year, but offensively challenged.

His ability to get to the rim and size will get him double digit points. Likely many free throw attempts.

Ain't nothin' free for Simmons if he isn't 3 feet from the rim

His ft % wasn't THAT horrible.

He'll get to the rim a decent amount and maybe by mid season he'll actually be able to hit a 12-15 foot shot, one thing about Simmons is he usually makes the smart basketball play. I'll give him

9.5 ppg
6 assists
6.5 rebounds

After a few years when (if) he learns to shoot he will be averaging 15/10/5

He's going to have to learn how to shoot to score that much, I really think he's going to be a complete bust, bad attitude and not a team guy that isn't going to do him any favors in an nba locker room.

that already happened.

What you meant to say is he is going to piss off this whole board when he wins rookie OTY putting up

12pts 10 assists 8 rebounds

Who else is gonna handle the ball in philly?
