Williams vs. Simmons

[Piotrowski, Mark A]

Jeff i assume you've seen both he and The Landlord.  I know Mark B's not fond 
of Williams but what's 
your take on Williams vs. Simmons?  Looks like their head-to-head was a draw 
individually.

there's something about a guy like Sheldon williams -- tough defender, solid 
team leader type -- that's 
appealing.  Like a ryan gomes.  But i watch almost no college BBall -- so i 
rely on y'all.

when i doubt go with Gene is my philosophy. :)

I've seen him play in person several times.  Still raw offensively, but very
long -- as Jay Bilas would say -- and athletic.  Needs another year of
college ball, but he won't fall too far if he stays in the draft.

His breakout game came Jan. 18 against Duke and Shelden Williams.  Simmons
had 28 points, 9 rebounds, 7 blocks, 3 steals and 2 assists in a 13-point
road loss.  Williams had 21 points, 9 boards, 5 steals, 4 blocks and 2
assists.
