His skills are not overrated. He just doesn't seem to care about his team. He has one foot out the door already.

I think he has a coach that does not hold him accountable.

Been thinking similar all season long. He may be just great in 5 years but how does that help now?

He will be a very good pro. Put himself in a tough situation this year.

He is the poster boy for why you shouldn't have to stay in college more than a year.

Imagine him having to play another year or two under Jones.

Let's not pretend like UK fans weren't try to hype Labissiere as better than Simmons. At least Simmons has shown the NBA potential. Skal can't even grab rebounds.

Oh, I'll own up on that. Don't get me wrong, Simmons is the #1 pick...but he is no Lebron.

The guy isn't all that overrated as a prospect. But for what he brings to the table for a college team this year, yes, he's very overrated.

He will be a great NBA player with good players around him. He just isn't the type of player that can carry a team

It wasn't just UK fans, there were popular draft projection blogs that has him as a #1 pick too.

But we sure as shite weren't calling him Baby LeBron.
