Does Anyone Think Ben Simmons Will be a Great NBA Player?

I don't. Awesome skill set in part. I just don't think he will be dominant. Not trying to trash an LSU player here. I am talking about the NBA and the draft.
I hope the Lakers draft him. I hate the Lakers and I just don't think he will be great at the next level.
EDIT:By great, I am talking about an all-time great player that we compare to other great players across eras. I am not talking about making all-star teams.

Low grade LeBron without the titles

That would be a little above average to decent, no?

Why? Why don't you think so? If he plays 12 years in the NBA, he will make at least 6-7 all star teams.
Also, he will be the #1 overall pick. Many think the 76ers are debating between who to draft...yet, they're actively shopping Noel and Okafor.

He'll average more points just by improving his free throws.

i think he looks like hell be a pretty good player

14/8/6 is good.
He might be a 20/9/6 guy, which would be really, really good. Not great, though. If his attitude gets right, he can be a strong contributor, for sure. Just not sure he will be a franchise player.

He's a superstar. If he gets a good coach he's Grant Hill a 20/10/7 player in his prime. Without good coaching he's Lamar Odom 14/9/5 in his prime.

I think he will exceed 20ppg a couple of times in his career.
Posted on 6/7/16 at 10:11 pm to AlaTiger
Is he hyped as being a generational type talent? I really haven't kept up with him that much
Posted on 6/7/16 at 10:11 pm to AlaTiger
Looks like this will be my opportunity to remain a Ben Simmons fan

Nope. He's a low-grade Anthony Mason w/o a jumper
Posted on 6/7/16 at 10:12 pm to Fus0623
What do you mean? Didn't he commit to Nike today for only 7.5 mil?
Posted on 6/7/16 at 10:14 pm to Boomshockalocka
Thanks coach jones thanks LSU. He was looking at a 100 mil deal months ago.

He was at the beginning of last season but it obviously had died down a bunch.
