How terrible is this guy? Could literally be out of the NBA in a few seasons or just hanging on as a 9th or 10th guy off the bench.

The fall mentally has been amazing to see....Literally, afraid of the basketball.

edit: I also believe these injuries to an extent are fake, it's more that his mind is gone.

He's only 26 .
Look at his numbers 16 points...8 boards.....8 assists
Someone needs to fix this guy.
No way you give up on this guy.
The potential is there.

At one point early on they were comparing him to LeBron LOL
His ceiling would be a Draymond-type player IMO

He's not one who is going to score much, though he has done so better (until this year) than Draymond

He's there for defense and playmaking

He can still play. Just can’t shoot.

I haven’t seen him play this season yet but he is one of the best defenders in the league

Guy has lost it ever since the play-offs a few years back with Philly.

Guy is average over 30 min a game to score 6 points a game----when he isn't injuried.

Looks like the nets heard me as they are reportedly trying to move him. Gl with that as he will soon become one of the highest paid players in the NBA. His ceiling being PJ Tucker.

He use to get comparisons to Giannis also...

Yeah, sure, maybe both can't shoot but one will put up 40 and the other 4. Because one guy will air ball a 3, and come right back and shoot it again or dunk in your face. The other one will just passively pass the rest of game as he runs from the ball.

Give Simmons credit he got that contract much like Chris Davis before they forgot how to play their sport or simply their sport passed them by....

Simmons is back from injury and worse then ever.

Unbelievable how truly awful he is now....literally couldn't average 10 points a game in WNBA.
