Danny benched for Bryn Forbes

Simmons was supposed to guard Harden, perhaps. But he kept getting switched off him. Jon did let other guys score some as well, and he certainly should have been able to get around some of those screens that forced the mismatches in the first place. But it was DontGoogle and Hezonia who were his victims most of the night.

Don’t see why you hate Simmons so much...

He’s flawed but tbh he’s the type of player we need... Simmons > Patty if I was PATFO last offseason

[coachmac87]

There’s no point in debating the GOAT MJ Simmons best Spur to ever play ...

Funny that he’s more respected in the league than Kyle huh?

I don’t think that will be true after this season tbh..

if you consider spurstalk the league coach....
I think Kyle has earned his own respect btw.

I don't hate Simmons at all. If you actually read the recent posts in the thread, you can see I was defending Simmons against the claim that he gave up 60 to Harden. That said, Simmons is not a good player, and even in a year where Patty is almost universally upon here, he's better than Simmons.

League as amongst opponents/players and casual fans..

Simmons has made more of an impact in the league and it’s not close...and what makes it worst is how he came up in SL while outplaying Anderson

My statement wasn’t a direct at your quote that I tagged. Just your stance in general..could’ve sworn you said he isn’t even an NBA player just recently.

I mean, he's not a GOOD NBA player. I can stand by that. Most Magic fans I've heard don't like him anymore either or in the very least no longer think he has any future other than a bench player.

Fair enough. Simmons was good for us and worked his ass off to get where he is..gotta respect the out of that tbh. His strengths are currently the Spurs biggest weakness right now..instead we got 4/yr 50M Patty lol

Hindsight always 20/20 but sure would be nice to switch that up

[Pavlov]

The Spurs' biggest weakness is not having Kawhi and Rudy.

oh boy...
I knew you were a JSimms fan but I didn't know you were a troll.

I am too tired frankly and it will be wasted on you.

J Simms dunkzz wur cool

coachmac87:

no the biggest weakness is not having the GOAT MJ JSimmons..?

I’m not trolling...Simmons has had the better career and bigger impact for the Spurs despite not being a first rd pick.

Kyle has had a solid year but he’s played more than ever and that’s only due to cir stances not the initial plan. I dunno why you get so offended..I’m not a Simmons “Stan” like you are with Kyle.. I was just one of the first on ST to recognize his talent in SL. He never got a fair share and I feel his energy and play was unappreciated..especially by PATFO

Coach, Kyle has been way better than Simmons so far in their careers:

https://www.basketball-reference.com...01&idx=players

Kyle's better in literally every stat but scoring. He even shoots threes better. Career impact stats aren't even close. Real-talk: I was gonna post a comparison between Simmons this season and Kevin Martin in his final year and say something like "Here's someone Jon is better than". But guess what. Even Martin's stats are better.

RIP for Rasual and all that, but ODN was way better that Simmons ever was. Probably still is.

I am just tired of responding to trolls.

Not going to bite on the fish bait tbh.

I don't hate JSimms but he is extremely overrated. How is that for him not accepting coach Vogel's coaching? After him giving interviews saying he was just about ready to be free from Pop's stern coaching.

That is why I think coach is really trolling. Not going to waste time trying to enlighten a troll... that is wasted time.

If we were going to talk about real credibility. I have interviews I could cite from players this season and coaches on Kyle.. but sure this troll knows more ...

GTFO with this troll bait coach... basically.

Kyle fan truly is obsessed

Deflection on your part to basically negate the fact that folks here talked up Jonathon to be a better defender on Harden than Danny Green. Only to have Harden drop 60 on Simmons' Magic only a few days later.

You can't make this crap up!

I wonder how many points he will drop on San Antonio tomorrow... I can tell you already it won't be 60.
