If you don’t watch much College Basketball. I don’t blame you. There’s something about it I don’t like. I think it’s the poor timing. When the College Basketball season started I was totally surprised. I didn’t even realise the season started. I mean what’s the point of competing with the NFL and the start of the NBA season?
Anyway the College Basketball season is in full swing and there’s one thing people are talking about. LSU’s Ben Simmons. This kid is an absolute beast, he’s lucky I don’t have my way otherwise he’d be in College for two years. There’s not many players that are compared to LeBron James but Simmons is getting that honour from many people. Even LeBron doesn’t mind.
“I don’t mind it,” James said Friday before the Cavs’ 114-108 overtime loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. “Someone’s going to be compared to someone all the time, and I don’t mind him being compared to me. People not only recognizing what he does on the floor, but he’s a great kid, too. He has a great family, great support system, and that’s why he’s able to do what he [does] on the floor.”
“He’s one of the best players in the world that’s played the game,” Simmons said in an interview with ESPN. “I just try to take little parts of his game and put it into mine. His size is one of the things that I look at. I’m 6-10, and he’s right at 6-8 or 6-9, and I just try and fit what he does into my game.“
A 6″10 guy that tries to be LeBron? Oh man this guy is going to be something. Question is. Who is going to #BottleitFotBen or #SuckForSimmons?
