Actually, they were doing the opposite. He's least effective when large bodied players back off and contest him at the rim.


Exactly. Why on earth would you put a smaller player on Simmons and then sag off of him? You are giving him exactly what he wants, a smaller body to be physical with and get to the rim with little to no concern of having a shot blocked. Only Johnny Jones would think this is a good idea.

Whoever wrote this knows little about the game of basketball.

Yep. This writer knows virtually nothing, but LSU fans are jumping all over it because it's enjoyable to kick him while he's down.
