Most if not everyone here thought/thinks #6 was to high for him and wanted a different player or something different done with that pick.
My views on Ves are in the Ves thread. If you want to act like a rss on the board and try to call someone out like this ( what motivated I have not idea ) get your facts straight first. If not, it a huge fail like this was.
Like I said, I like Simmons. I hope he is wrong about Ves and he builds a useful baseline in his 3rd year. He still has a chance to do it. I and several others here have detailed how. Ves isn't void of any positive attributes. 7-0, 7-1, can run, sets picks, he rolls, quick outlets, dunks, blocks some shots and moves the ball. His perimeter D isn't bad. He is a glue guy and that why I think his best chance to grow is with Wall, Beal, Trevor A or Webster, Ves, and Nene. He needs to rebound better and consistently, foul less and make free throws. If he can do those things, he can play in that line up. And if he can do that, he buy time to develop some offense... a mig range, a one dribble slash dunk, a post more.. something.
He rebounded well last game. To many fouls. I'm pulling for the young man. You can cheer for him to fail. Thats up to you.
