9. "right? But what's crazy to me is: even if he doesn't - still great." In response to Reply # 7
Magic was never a pick and pop/spot-up 3 point/long range jump shooter and was still one of the game's most dominant forces. Simmons can be that w/ his athleticism. I think he will develop a mid-range jumper - but w/ the way the game is played now I don't even think he needs a reliable 3-point game as he will always have 3-point snipers spread out on the floor that he can kick to. Lot of cats can shoot the long-ball - but just a handful can facilitate and create like Simmons.
