Simmons' mentions hitting a shot against Paul Pierce in his book. He says that Pierce said he wasn't taking it seriously, but that he definitely crossed Pierce up. I'm pretty sure this is what he was referring to, and im also sure Pierce was NOT trying. Gotta love the Sports Guy.
he decribed this in his book pierce actually was actually defending and cause simmons had watch kevin mcale so much he had has post moves down past....he beat pierce on that play but after he made it pierce claimed he wasnt really trying
well, usually the guys that can play can't write for shit, or talk for shit (see tim hardaway, magic, bruce bowen, etc). kind of an inverse relationship there. although cwebb is pretty good at his gig, as is kenny the jet.
Anyone know what combo to use to make Simmons jumpshot on 2k12?

He's 10 times the writer I'll ever be, but at least I'm better than him at basketball. I thought he would be much better,

this guy needs a show on espn, the only problem is he has a personality (not allowed in sports)

do you also notice he said that he is raja bell? Celtics didn't play the Suns. He's a Boston fan and just says they will win.

he was either predicting reality or talking about the 2008 version of EA Sports video game -- which they were plugging late in 2007.

As much as he writes about playing hoops, I would have figured he had a little game. Wrong!

He had to quit because of a back injury. I don't think he's played in years.

bill simmons is ALMOST funny enough for me to forgive his uber-celtic fandom.
lakers over celtics 4-2 nba finals 2010.
