re: Fultz or Simmons

Simmons is a 6'11 guy who can get a triple double on the reg in the NBA if 76ers get some shooters. He had ZERO jumpshot in college, and all accounts are that he has practiced shooting nonstop since joining the NBA. Those who think he won't be able to knock down 20 footers consistently are fooling themselves.

6'11 guys who are perhaps the fastest on the court, with the best handles, and the best vision are RARE. Yes, Fultz is good, but there are LOTS of good guard scorers. There are very few Point Forwards with the skillset that Simmons possesses.

Last but not least, he had Johnny Jones as a coach. We all know now how pathetic CJJ was/is. It makes Ben that much more impressive. If he played with a competent coach, a decent team, he would have thrived. As it was, he just basically broke a ton of SEC records
