Simmons is more like Tyreke Evans than he is Magic Johnson. He'll be a role player in 4 years.
Ok that is a pretty outrageous thing to say honestly...
No...both had great rookie years despite having ZERO jumper. After that it was down hill as teams knew how to guard them because they sucked as shooters.
You're really underrating Magic as a shooter, imo. Dude was practically automatic from midrange and he continued to improve throughout his career. Didn't he eventually hit like 90% of his free throws one year?
