"There's no crying in basketball!"

Look at his Win Shares, VORP, DRTG, ORTG, over the past 3 or 4 seasons. Look at where he ranks in those categories amongst the NBA's best.

He's #1 in Win Shares THIS season. Not Harden, not Curry, not LeBron, not KD, not AD, not Jokic, not Embiid, not Simmons, GOBERT.

He is a top 10 player. Period. Very few players in the entire league effect their teams ability to win games the way he does for the Jazz.

Stats don't lie.

But he only scores 15 pts a game and he can't shoot. Most of his points came from dunks and 1~3 feet from the basket. He has no jumps and he has a limited offense. He is an old fashioned centre who can't shoot the 3s.

It’s the same reason why everyone is 10 years late to the “Melo sucks” party. I’d been saying Dwight sucks since Orlando but the response is always “OMG numbers!”

Then what do you call a PG who has yet to hit a three?

Seriously, the Simmons jock-licker is going to come in here saying Rudy shouldn't be an all-star because he doesn't score enough and can't shoot from outside 3 feet. LMFAO

Nobody says Ricky is a top 10 or top 25 or top X. Top 10 is too much for Rudy and he is a player that i would like in my team but not top 10 thats a fact

well he is hitting 3, 4 jumpers a game now.
Rudy does not even have a jumper.

Sorry, you can change Ricky for Simmons. And of course Simmons is far vetter than Ricky,we all know)

From 10’? Ok. I had to stop at 52 seconds when he airballed that one from the elbow. But let’s not shift the goalposts (almost literally), as you said he’s a center that can’t hit the 3, yet your PG buddy has never hit a three in his life. But, yeah, it’s the centers who need to hit the three ball.

 

[FalseFlagg K]

maybe a top 25 player, definitely not a top 10 player.

You’re a complete moron who knows very little about basketball

But the funny thing is you having to make the shooting comparison of your PG to a traditional center. Huge victory for Simmons, I suppose.

Manute Bol is a better three point shooter than Simmons.

Yes, present tense.

Are you talking about Simmons?
