Simmons just got crossed up pretty bad. I'm thinking he's going to be pissed and come out guns blazing this quarter.

So far he hasn't done much in the first quarter. 1-5 from the floor with 2 points and a couple assists.

His passing is a thing of beauty.

Jerry Meyer ?@jerrymeyer247 2m2 minutes ago
I can't think of a forward better at leading the break than Ben Simmons in the 11 years I've scouted. Help me out if I'm overlooking someone

Pretty high praise from Jerry Meyer about Simmons. Gonna be fun to watch next year.

This game is rough to watch. Simmons is double and triple teamed, and the refs are letting them mug Ben when he gets into the lane. Add in the fact Ben could have 20 assists but Verde can't shoot for shite

No kidding. Verde is not making a damn shot and every time simmons drives to the lane he is practically getting tackled.

This.

His team is struggling and he's not doing much on the offensive end to help out.

Noah Dickerson and Doral Moore are the inside players for Montverde. Simmons at 6'9" is playing the "4" but seems to be more of a "3". Just got blocked by a 6'6" player I wish he would go strong inside!!

I am going to go ahead and say it. Simmons is great, but he isn't going to step in and win us a championship in one year...

His guards can't shoot at alllll, so when Ben is double teamed practically all game, it really hurts his value. He has gotten about 15 wide open 3's.

Omg!!! Stfu! Omggggg worst fricking call ever!

I LOVE the people in this thread coming out of nowhere bashing on him...only LSU fans

Y'all are so ignorant, most have no idea what Simmons's true value is. Next year when Hornsby, Tone, and hopefully Malik are getting WIDE open 3's, they won't go 1/22. If they hit just 5/22 they're winning this game by double digits

37-39 and the ref makes that call.Especially when it was a foul as well.


But finally a 3 ball after going 0-20 from outside.

I was thinking the same thing. Hornsby, Patterson, and Blakeney will be shooting wide open 3's all season.

It's sad that Ben's career may end like that. It would have put them up 1, instead they went down 4. Unreal swing
