Not at all. I was trying to point out the fact that you saying them not being close is inaccurate. And the fact that teams don't always draft BPA, being an Eagles fan you should know this.

Wasn't a shot at all, there's just different approaches to drafting. As much as I love Ben, he's far from a perfect prospect. There are discernible weaknesses in his game.

Also the if Ben was at Duke and Brandon was at LSU argument /scenario need to go away

You can point out how Simmons is a reluctant shooter, that's fact. On the other hand he can handle and run end to end with the ball, distribute like a guard at that big size? I'm still taking that #1
Questions about his hunger and the non clutchness don't really raise any flags. He is a basketball junkie once he gets to the league I don't think anyone will care about the months he spent at lsu. I believe some folks are looking into the one season in college a little too deeply
Being clutch in college has nothing to do with being clutch in the pros. With better coaching I don't worry about him in the clutch

People act as if Simmons did nothing at LSU
All you Ingram lovers can have him, there's one in every draft

Everyone saying Ingram over Ben uses that and "he can't shoot"
There's no comprehension problem

This. Now I really hope Philly takes BI, just to see the meltdown.

Easily.
Ppl are in here discussions specific nuances of each player's game since they're the only 2 blue chip prospects...and dude reverts right back to "omg you think Ingram is better than Simmons!?" every time. To him...saying Ben Simmons can't shoot and Ingram can is the same as saying "Ingram should go #1".

Boston gonna roll the dice on bender? They don't need to take another guard lol... Or do they?
I don't know how much value they'd get by trading the pick but like others have said id try that first

IMO If the Sixers want to draft Simmons they will draft him.
That LSU saga was a hit on his image and he's already getting low balled on these sneaker deals. I don't think he can afford the hatred that would come with publicly forcing his way to the Lakers.
What is he going to go? He's not John Elway, he's not going to play baseball.

You drinking at the job man? It's pretty obvious from all his replies he's a Lakers fan.
You're off today, chief. Ain't retaining **** out here.
