Well worth a read:
http://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/more-sports/australian-ben-simmons-is-expected-to-be-the-nbas-next-big-thing/story-fnhq61vz-1227484037039
You don't think it's awesome that experts are comparing an Aussie to Lebron, Kobe and Magic?
I think experts have been doing that for a long time. Nothing really new in this article.
Plus, it'd be more 'awesome' if they focused less on the fact that he'll become a 'millionaire'
Pfft, wake me up when he's a five time all-star, dual mvp and Larry O'Brien winner.
Then I'll believe the hype and consider him for a boomers spot.

Yes, the media focus on money is annoying, but if that's what it takes to get basketball some attention, so be it.
Simmons will be the next MVP other than LBJ, Curry and Durant
