Ben Simmons is too passive on the offensive end. He didn't even try to challenge our defense.




We've been watching him all year, it's perplexing. He'll have a half with 2 total shot attempts, then come out in the second half and score 18 points. No matter how passive he looks at times, all of the analyst keep calling him the best NBA prospect of the last 10 years. I guess we just expect to see a guy like that want to dominate and put a team on his back. Bennie is just fine passing the ball around and hoping his teammates make a shot.

He has a high bball IQ. Sometimes the best course of action is raising your teammates' level of play. Gets them in the flow of the game, and makes things easier for the star player to take over because the defense then has to take his teammates as a legitimate thread.

Problem is LSU's team doesn't have as much depth top to bottom. But Simmons plays the right way, IMO. He'll do well at the next level.
