    Anyone know what combo to use to make Simmons jumpshot on 2k12?

  2. Sungon9 Says:

    they should have used this for NBA 2k11

  3. goopy630 Says:

    haha that is weird. but that entire year he was saying it was celtics beating the suns in the finals

  4. VoorkJTV Says:

    he was probably just kidding, but then they actually won

  5. eboooo Says:

    woah he said paul pierce on the 2008 champion celtics, this was made in 2007

  6. DG7show Says:

    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,

  7. theajroseshow Says:

    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.

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

  9. dbag021 Says:

    this would be the best moment of my life, bar none.

  10. diplomats101 Says:

    Coolest guy on ESPN. love his sense of humor

  11. dponder1 Says:

    I like how the segment after Simmons’ was about someone with a gambling problem…

  12. momogoblue Says:

    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.

  14. bhizzle1234 Says:

    for a second i thought that was brian scalabrini coming off the bench

  15. pbl1 Says:

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

  16. memattmyself Says:

    his game is trash

  17. plussign17 Says:

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

  18. spikes930 Says:

    prediction for the upcoming season. he’s a celtic fan. optomist

  19. ditez1 Says:

    except he traveled on that shot!

  20. rafinhauehara Says:

    that’s why he pretend he was Raja Bell.’cause he thought that he would be the with the Suns on the Finals

  21. hawk2440 Says:

    he’s being wise with a prediction

  22. Woocam Says:

    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.

  23. lampchops Says:

    K WTF… bill simmons says “thats paul pierce hes on the 2008 champion boston celtics”.. but the video is dated oct 2007

  24. redsoxgirlXOmusic Says:

    favorite sports journalist ever. ever.

  25. sevren777 Says:

    bill simmons is ALMOST funny enough for me to forgive his uber-celtic fandom.

    lakers over celtics 4-2 nba finals 2010.
