I just don't see how anyone can compare him to LeBron right now, but of course people will believe whatever the media says.



You're right about the expectations being too high, but that is because casual fans are clueless. When people hear he is the next LeBron James, people tune in expecting to see 2015-2016 LeBron James. Anyone with half a brain regarding basketball talent can see exactly what is so special about Simmons, but most people on this board watch 7-10 games a year - all LSU games - and think they are basketball experts on the rant.

He's a 6'10 point guard. He doesn't have a jumper. He doesn't shoot 3s at all. He's reckless when he drives. He doesn't really have any moves off the dribble and he doesn't try to post. He don't even try to be a force in the paint on defense. What am I missing?
