Spitting image of him imo. Talking about on the court only of course.

they are pretty similar

but i think Simmons is more explosive. And his right hand is already better

simmons can finish with both hands better, is a better athlete and has better court vision, so id say that he may be a better version of lamar odom... and hey theres nothing wrong with that! i doubt simmons turns to the crackrocks in his mid 20's so he'll be okay!

The first Simmons highlight I watched took me 2:30 into the video to realize he was left handed. That says a lot.

He's actually ambidextrous.... Which is awesome

But I've seen Simmons compared to LBJ, Lamar Odom, a more atheltic Boris Diaw, Magic Johnson, TMac, Paul George, etc. He's got bits and pieces of all of them.

And they are all comparisons to great players, which shows you the type of skill set / talent + size combo that he has.

Gonna be spectacular.

Simmons has better handles, passing ability, and plays more aggressive defense. He's much more fluid of an athlete.

Just imagine how good Odom could be had he cared more about basketball than eating piles of candy and banging OJ Simpson's kid.
