The former ESPN Sports Guy and creator of the soon-to-be-live website The Ringer is an…interesting basketball mind, with a best-selling book to his name but a track record of some pretty outlandish opinions.
That, of course, dovetails with the every-man persona that Simmons has worked to create, and the comparison that he made on Twitter early in the week was simplistic in nature but far from absurd.
Also, keep in mind that fans in general (and especially, or so it seems, Wolves fans) seem to discredit much of what Simmons says as he’s not a former player or professional ‘analyst’, so let’s not collectively get all too excited about this casual comparison.
