Jamarcus level bust



Dumb AF. Jamarcus didn't do anything in pro sports. Ben had a fantastic start to his career before going mental and getting hurt a bunch.

3× NBA All-Star (2019–2021)
All-NBA Third Team (2020)
2× NBA All-Defensive First Team (2020, 2021)
NBA Rookie of the Year (2018)
NBA All-Rookie First Team (2018)
NBA steals leader (2020)

For the record, I don't like Ben Simmons very much, but the revisionist history around him is absurd. He was also a fricking beast at LSU. Unanimous first team All-American and averaged 19/12/5 which is one of the greatest freshman seasons in NCAA history.

He does seem like a complete jackass though.

And LSU didn’t make the tournament. In large part because he alienated the entire rest of the Tiger basketball team by midseason.


And Johnny Jones ..

no he was not a “fricking beast at LSU”. He had the softest most empty stats ever. Buddy Heild clowned his so hard in that Oklahoma game
