3 Ballhandlers in at once? (White, Simons & Scheierman).

Queta and Simons don't seem to get rattled much.

I kind of like these games when a starter is out. We get to see who steps up.

Scheiereman is doing pretty well.

Simons has good mechanics, on his shots.
He's obviously had some type of specific training.

Great steal there by Scheierman leading to the Simons 3

Has anyone seen Max Shulga, today?
He's not on the Boxscore, but should be with the (Boston) Team.

Simons is definitely going to get more than the mid-level exception in my opinion.
