West Virginia Jam Fest
July 18, 2010 by Nolan Shulman
The only thing I ever questioned when it came to Sim is whether or not he'd ever be able to change ends at a good enough pace to survive at a high major school. We already new he had the talent to play anywhere in the country. He has unbelievable hands, soft touch around the rim, is a great area rebounder, makes terrific outlet passes, and can also pass out of the post. This week, Sim once again did a better job changing ends than he did the last time I saw him. He gets faster and smoother running the floor every tournament I take in. He was faster at King James than he was at Pitt Jam Fest. He changed ends better at Pangos than he did at King James. This week, he looked to have taken another leap in regards to his conditioning. According to his high school coach Darren Freedman, Sim has lost a ton of weight since he first enrolled at Kiski and it's helped Sim become the best true center in Canada. With Negus Webster-Chan hurt, and Anthony Bennett not playing the first few games, Sim carried the load and proved he's more than capable of being the center piece of Team Takover Canada 16u's high octane offense. He had West Virginia and Pittsbugh following him around throughout the tournament and even drew head coach Jamie Dixon to one of his games.
All-Canada Classic
June 15, 2010 by Nolan Shulman
Sim went toe to toe with perhaps the only Canadian he can't push around. Squaring off vs. 2010 Minnesota commit, Maurice Walker, Sim held his ground in the paint, got deep low post position, and converted when he got a touch. He didn't look intimidated, took it upon himself to play physical, and made the most of his appearance in the Air Canada Center. He could have been better had he received more touches, but all-star games aren't typically known for dumping down to the big men.
Pangos AA Camp
June 9, 2010 by Nolan Shulman
Sim continued his strong summer at Pangos. While Pangos is generally not a spectacle for big men, Sim was very effective. On day one he had 15 second half points and dominated the paint offensively. He keeps the ball high which makes him impossible to block. Combine that with his soft hands and good footwork and Sim is unguardable when he gets a touch deep in the middle. The one area where Sim struggled this week was changing ends. In camp settings like these, its usually a run and gun affair which doesn't play to Sim's strength. With that in mind, Sim was still excellent and made the Top 40 game.
Pitt Jam Fest
April 18, 2010 by Nolan Shulman
Sim has developed at a higher pace than expected. His mobility on the floor has increased significantly but there’s definitely room for more improvement. On defense, he is physically imposing as it is extremely difficult for opponents to get buckets inside with Sim either blocking or altering nearly every shot. Bhullar was sensational in the second game that I watched him play. He opened up the game with a 9-0 run single- handedly while throwing down two big dunks on his defender, then hitting a jumper at the top of the key followed by a three pointer. Yes you read correctly! He made a three !!! He has also made strides in his interior game, displaying a lefty hook and improved footwork. Sim was the most impressive Canadian all week.
