Can Ben Simmons be a rich mans Draymond Green?

[KingPush]

Draymond is a much better shooter but I think Simmons can become a star if he plays similar to Draymond. Doesnt handle the ball all the time but can lead the break. Hes also a great rebounder and passer like Draymond as well.


Draymond is putting up 25/11/8 with 3.8 bpg and 2 steals vs portland

I think Simmons in his prime can average that for a whole year


Plus if he ends up on the Lakers he'll have Walton coaching him and Russell to be the next Curry-Draymond

I dont think Simmons will be quite the defensive player. I see him more as a Blake Griffin type.

So Lebron?

Giannis dumps on Simmons. Simmons is the same age as last year's Giannis, and I'm pretty sure even last year's Giannis would've skullf*cked college competition and gotten LSU to the tournament.

I'm pretty sure you are wrong. Pretty 'grey' statement regarding age.

Ben Simmons will play better in his rookie season than GA did in 2014/15, he was a role player.

In fact I won't be surprised if Simmons is a better player concurrently as GA in the forthcoming season, if given the ball as much.

2 very talented players, one with the benefit of NBA experience already... but not sure why homers feel the need to disrespect other players to pump their own.

A point guard on offense and a big man who can protect the rim on defense. There's pretty much no chance Simmons does that his rookie year. And yes, the ages do align..rookie Simmons will be just a hair younger than Giannis was this past season.

Antetokoumpo is 20 months older than Simmons and Simmons has more than 20 lbs on him

They don't play anything a like let alone the fact that Simmons can't shoot, defend and doesn't have the mentality to become a Green.:facepalm
