Who cares how good his defense is if he's on the bench in the last 5 minutes of a playoff game because he's afraid to shoot? Also, I think his attitude is absolutely horrible. His coaches and teammates have been begging him to shoot for years and he just refuses. He would not only make himself much more dangerous if he learned to shoot he would also make things so much easier for his teammates, but he doesn't care enough to even try. It shows a total lack of respect for his teammates that he won't even try. I don't want a guy like that on this team. He cares more about being a celebrity and dating Kardashians than being a great basketball player. He's a prima donna. Hard pass. I don't care how talented he is.I've been called the biggest Simmons hater on this board, but it's really about his attitude and price tag. If we were talking about some center named "Len Simmons" who was a free agent, and had the same exact skills (and drawbacks), but he had a good attitude, I'd be entirely on board with signing someone like that for MLE money.
