Afraid of contact. Lol. He's a stretch 4. Playing a 4 or 5 all year.

What???! No. Just no.

Green - Jumpshot.
Simmons - none

Green - 3 point shot
Simmons - none

Simmons handles>Green

Green is MUCH thicker and a better rebounder at the next level

Simmons is a lot faster with the ball as well. Much quicker

Simmons also is much more athletic like a Lebron type.. Draymond is much different

Green is 30lbs heavier and ain't afraid to shoot from outside.

Simmons is afraid of contact? Do you watch the fricking games? Literally all he does is play on the low block or dribble drive.

Both 3/4 type players
Defensive studs
Great handles
Great court vision
High assist and rebound numbers
Efficient offense
Ben's shot will develop
Draymond has excelled in a passing oriented offense

No i get it. As his game develops in the NBA i can see some similarities in their skill set. Simmons is more of a fascilitator with the ball and obviously Draymond benefits a ton from his guards.

Right now I will be more than happy if Simmons can hit free throws.
