Re: Who Wins ... ?
considering we've never seen Simmons play against NBA level talent, and Randle had more double doubles than any other rookie or sophomore this year against NBA level talent, then Clarkson and Russell are basically a wash at this point, Clarkson is a little more proven I'm going to go with Clarkson and Randle

Randle and Clarkson. Clarkson's aggressiveness and quickness is perfect for a 1 on 1 or 2 on 2 game.

i think its Randle Clarkson all day both have higher motors and russell doesn't have the size advantage to post up clarkson.

Re: Who Wins ... ?
The difference in talent alone is too much and Russell/Simmons are far more smarter than Randle and Clarkson.
You'd probably have Randle setting a screen, getting the ball on the left block, jab step 5 times and throw up contested left handed bricks against Simmons' length while Russell and Simmons work the crap out of their two man game.

the team that has Randle because he's just gonna bruise you up every single time. Whether its clarkson or russell teamed up with randle, that team is going to win.

How much longer is Simmons than Randle? I thought they both had sub-seven foot wingspans?

According to the final measurements at LSU, his wingspan is just a quarter inch over 7'

I think Simmons and Randle, in a 2-on-2, are the wash. Whoever wins the Clarkson/Russell matchup wins -- my money is, reluctantly, on ... Russell.

Randle would abuse Simmons in the post. I don't think it's much of a contest.

So that's the same as Randle. They're both not particularly long.

Got to remember Russell and Simmons used to be teammates in high school. I pick Russell and Simmons, they complement each other so well.

Russell vs Simmons, chemistry and natural talent i think as well as an athletic advantage, Clarkson and Randle have a motor that can go for days but Russell and Simmons is something else
Clarkson and Simmons vs Russell and Randle would be interesting though
