This is some terrible juelzing right here boy ... what YOU were trying to do is make excuses for Kemba by Using his size as a crutch when talking about defense ....and what I said is that Patrick Beverly and Chris Paul are both All DEFENSE players at the same size ....now it’s “well that don’t count ...we talking about all around point guards” nikka stop 1.Kemba is NOT a complete point guard to begin with he’s a scorer and that’s about it and


:comeon: It looks as if reading comprehension isn't your strong suit. As I previously stated, Chris Paul is an elite two way PG, however PG's like him are a rarity who can play both sides of the ball at a high level. And Patrick Beverly doesn't fit the criteria based on the concept I mentioned, which is complete PG's, not one way defensive specialists.

And to refute your asinine argument on how size is supposedly not a factor for a PG on defensive end lets look further below:

Middle of the Pack

18. Kemba Walker, 2.505
Walker is an interesting case, he works very hard on defense and seems to be fundamentally solid. However, he lacks the size and strength to truly limit the elite ball distributors currently in the association.

I’m not confusing a damn thing he is SECOND TIER I’m not calling a second tier caliber player “elite” or “top” FOH lol that shyt doesn’t even make sense .... how are you in a class that’s the so called top but then there’s a whole level/group of players above you??? ... that’s not the “top” my nikka lol.... let’s be honest are there even 10 elite PGs in the leauge? .... what does it even mean to be “top 10 point guard”? Now top 10 even top 15/20 overall players in the NBA that’s a distinction but positional top 10? What’s his competition for that spot Mike Conley/Eric Bledsoe those are elite PGs to you also ...Man stop it
:camby:

He’s clearly Second tier

Nobody give two fukks about your personal categorization. A top ten PG is top tier PG.



  1. Why you are still trying to articulate this bad point idk ... let it go bruh ... Ben doesn’t even Guard PG’s the whole game so this exaggerated emphasis on him being THE TALLEST PG EVER!!! is pretty moot when he spends a lot of time guarding SFs/PFs who are closer to his proportions anyways ...being relatively tall can be a great advantage or it can be useless it depends on the skillset of the defender and really having that large of a frame is usually a detriment in trying to stay in front of what should be smaller and quicker players ...so while his size is advantageous in some areas there’s a reason the 6ers don’t run him exclusively on Point Guards all game.

You just proved my point without even realizing it! :jawalrus: The fact that Simmons is a PG yet the 76's have him "guarding SF's & PF's" shows that his height & weight are major factors in his defensive abilities. Plus Simmons does guard other PG's as well, so all this bullshyt you've written is irrelevant because Simmons physical attributes do give him advantages over most PG's & all your incoherent rants won't change this fact.





I’ll take Ben for now and going foward over a more one dimensional player like Kemba Walker .... you can have that ...Ben is better at nearly every facet of defense ...Kemba does have the edge as far as “jumpshooting” on offense and that’s about where it stops
:hubie:


Bottom line is that Ben Simmons needs to shut his damn mouth and concentrate on his garbage shooting & other poor fundamentals instead of worrying about Kemba Walker, as Simmons is not deserving of an All Star nod as a rookie, as for one he's not even a clear cut ROY, nor does Simmons belong in the premier class of All Star rookies like Michael Jordan, Shaq, David Robinson, Patrick Ewing and David Robinson. Furthermore no matter how many long essays you write, Kemba Walker is STILL the better, more complete & efficient PG who can carry a team offensively & doesn't have to rely on his athletic ability alone to play the game at a high level.

He had the WOAT coach at LSU the next season proved that


what about the previous seasons before simmons got there?

that wasn't the case then.


I always found issue with how he's so "elite" yet he couldn't elevate decent talent around him at LSU. It was my beef with Fultz too. It's one thing to be at a mid major but these fools were at major programs and both their teams were complete shyt.
