lol Simmons is NEVER guarded by a player that much smaller than him, and when he is he abuses them into the paint and bodies them....
Idk what you're smoking. You just said teams "don't care about him" yet the Raptors had Kawhi shadowing him the entire 7 game series in the second round of the playoffs....they obviously cared.
Lmao. Regular season BUT
Quote
Leonard guarded Simmons for 115 possessions across the regular season and held him to 17 points and 10 assists, while forcing nine turnovers.
The broader problem here is that Simmons’ struggles have had a devastating effect on the rest of his team.
When Simmons was on the floor without Leonard during those matchups, the Sixers scored 110.6 points per 100 possessions.
But when Leonard joined him on the court, that number dropped to 103.4.
For context, no team in the league had an offence that bad across the entire season, not even the G-League All-Stars, I mean New York Knicks.
