I think they know no one is going to bet 50/1 odds on Utah since most of the NBA world is dumb so they make the odds more attractive to gamblers.
If Ben simmons is in the Jazz team

I like Dante. But the analogy to Simmons is just awful.
Now you've gone waaaaaaay to far.
If you said "Ben Simmons may evolve into a player that is better than any Jazz player (Rudy, Gordon)" we could take that seriously.
Yes

Ben Simmons has better point guard skills than 95% of nba guards ~ dribbling, court vision, passing etc. His preferred position is point guard, not power forward. Philly want to use him as a point guard, Ben wants to play as a point guard. End of discussion.
So you think Simmons is going to guard PG's?

why is it awful ? They are both point guards, both were lottery picks, both have deficiencies with their games, both are from Australia.

Simmons is so versatile, He has the quickness, size and ability to guard all 5 positions.

“I think he can (defend point guards),” Brown told Camerato. “Like anything, will time prove me right or wrong, but that will be the plan. I intend on making him like what we would know to be a legitimate point guard, and we’re going to try him defending other point guards.”
I think he should join Eurella

you are obviously here to insult people, not discussing basketball. If you want to be an arseh*** that is your choice.
Ben Simmons completely checked out during his one-and-only season at LSU. Dude just went through the motions, biding his time until draft day. He doesn't have the work ethic, nor is he the type of teammate I would want.
ETA I say this as someone who went to LSU.

blame his teammates who did not give him much support and Ben had to carry the team for the whole season。
Does any Aussie player ever do anything wrong? Do they ever have to take responsibility for anything that goes wrong with their teams/development/etc.? Simmons quitting is his teammates fault, Exum's ballhandling and shooting not developing one iota for 3 years in the league is Quin's fault... Ingles being awesome of course has nothing to do with the coaching staff... it's all his Aussie awesomeness.
Ehh, I dont blame Ben Simmons for the LSU thing. College sports are a farce and he treated it as such, so I cant knock him too much. He looked great in SL, very interesting player, but he isnt a good player yet. He is an experiment that I'm excited for, but I dont think he is close to a top 50 player the moment he starts his rookie year. Maybe by his 3rd year.
Reading his posts and looking at the syntax I don't think he's that young, likely a troll and probably an American one judging by the time he posts at, its 530 in the morning here. He is right tho, i do enjoy insulting some people.
