This guy is 4 games into his first NBA season... just imagine in 2-3 seasons time..
Tons of good rookies this year..and Simmons might be having one of the best rookie seasons ever averaging like 16/10/7

yeah Simmons is awesome, but he's been exposed to NBA training, practice, environment for a season now.... he's been healthy for several months now.
What I see with Jackson is... the veteran moves, the plays I see someone like Kawhi or Paul George come up with.... non-rookie plays...
Simmons is a gun, and he's putting up stats... but he's got a ball a lot.... if Jackson was allowed to handle and dominate the ball, I see him putting up 14/7/5 with elite defense too... my point is, Jackson is being utilized way below what he is capable of but he is showing special abilities
