Can we all agree Ben Simmons was a cancer to this team last year?

I've said it a million times but the kid was an absolute waste of a scholarship. I had a friend who was a trainer for the team last year and he told me Ben Simmons was the last person to show up to practice and the first one to leave. I think this team will be much better off without him and Timmy Q throwing temper tantrums at each other on the court.

We finally have a real, selfless leader in Blakeney.

I don't really understand the point of this thread. The kid has moved on. We have a new season and new team. It's time to move on people.

He's pointing out that everyone is writing off this team - They say if JJ lost with Ben Simmons, then there is no way he can win without him. LSU will win.

Be careful Buga, the only 2 times I've been banned were from posting negative comments in basketball threads. Tread lightly.

I mean, it's the truth. He did nothing for this team and then drug LSU's name through the mud on that documentary

It's two games, but if I were Johnny and saw how it went down with Les. I would be coaching like my job was in jeopardy.

I totally disagree. Ben wasn't a cancer at all. The cancer was Quarterman

hear, hear! There is no need because this has been rehashed a million times, it's a brand new season, focus all your energy on it. Focus on Mr Blakeney and Mr Victor's team with the smooth shooting of the Sudan's Duop Reath. Lol

Besides, I would say everyone was responsible for that mess last season. LSU just did not know how to handle it from the start. Not like a Duke or Kentucky would have. Johnny Jones had no control over the situation whatsoever. And you had players on the team jealous of Simmons and wanted the attention that he was getting like obviously Quarterman, but some others to wished it was about them too. I'm sure Blakeney's head swelled some which is why he wanted to leave even though he was nowhere near being ready for NBA ball. But that's the pass, I wish LSU the best this season.

I posted truth also, though perhaps a bit sarcastic as is my nature. It bugged some and I had to take a brief timeout. I'm better for it and have more knowledge of where the lines are as a result.

Yet almost every report said otherwise.

Kind of like the reports that "Ben is now going to all his classes"

Or how about the times the media posted videos of him and Keith being the last ones to leave practice?

But don't let the truth get in the way of your narrative.

The only cancer currently sits on our bench. Hint: rhymes with "Lonnie Bones"
