Can thank AD, Harden and kyrie too. Harden showed up fat and wasn't trying then demanded a trade with 3 years left on the deal. AD was similar and would only go to LA. kyrie always missing games for fukkery... etc.
Ben Simmons thrown out of practice; suspended by Sixers

Harden and AD still balled, these new nikkas not playing and staying injured cause they feelings hurt.

This Pandemonium all over the fact that the nikka won't shoot, literally shoot, the purpose of what you suppose to do in basketball
just has me always cracking up about this saga that is transpiring
76er fans are in a doozy
Won't shoot FREE THROWS !!
He won't shoot because he's afraid to get fouled !!
He shot 34% FT in the playoffs
Teams just decided to hack him so he as the Point Guard wanted to quickly get the ball out of his hands and not shoot.
Players who are on expiring contracts can request trades because they have leverage if you don't trade them they walk and you get nothing
He signed a Max deal with 4 yrs left..
He has NO leverage as a barely All Star and
5th scoring option on the team

I ain't gone throw Harden in that group because he did what he could to get Houston over the hump. They just kept running into the Warriors.
AD on the other just kinda proved that he needed another generational talent with him to succeed.

Man he saying the same shyt Philly been saying for 5 years. What they don't get is he dont want to be better and is spoiled.
Exactly the dude just isn’t that dog he doesn’t want to be. He just wants to be content do his thing and not be chastised.

Big issue is he dont want to play for Philly
That's a thing too
If he was elsewhere alot of things would change
Ben don't seem to trust the team
More have been said than the public know
It will all come out when he gone like it always come out
People keep glossing over this point, but it's a very important thing. He doesn't trust the front office or executive staff in Philly going back to the Harden trade attempt.
Alternatively, the fans don't want him back nor does the players nor does the front office (They claim they do for trade posturing, but we know they don't) so it's weird to see both sides literally not wanting each other yet Ben is only one catching heat.
I'm sure they're not the only ones, but I don't watch or listen to much punditry. Greg Anthony and Haywood on NBAtv were coming at it from the right perspective, especially GA. He was clowning the front office and giving good perspective on how they should be looking at this. Should never get personal from an organizational/front office standpoint and that's where we're at
really ripped the Morey line about waiting five years or whatever dumb shyt he said. Basically dismissed it as chump shyt and said if you don't get anything from that asset you don't need to worry about five years down the line because you wont have a job.
Was nice to hear after Morey and the FA have been seemingly getting a free pass on their bullshyt

Well maybe you guys can put together all of your concern trolling posts in a montage and send it to Simmons. Maybe it will help cheer him up knowing you guys support him.
not sticking up for ben at all in that post if you read it again. Pulling the mental health card if it's not sincere is about as low as it gets and there are legitimate questions I'd ask if I were his employer
to me it is what it is with Simmons at this point and it's not very complicated or much to say about it, the Philly front office is the more interesting part of the story which is what I was commenting on

The 76ers PR team has done a fantastic number on your brain. Nobody wants him, so why are they mad if he's not there? Answer that simple question.
It has nothing to do with contracts or his willingness to shoot or anything. Y'all are acting like scorned ex girlfriends at any mention that it's not all Ben's fault to the point that you think I'm concern trolling. I don't know what the fukk that is. What in the hell is concern trolling? You're too caught up in the internet if you think everyone here is faking their thoughts to get some weird take rolling. Go take a break. You sound nuts.
