Bust Simmons - Sixers 2022 Season Thread

[Dwight Howard]

We've tolerated this Simmons shyt for long enough. Get this nikka off our roster.

Hack a simmons with 4 mins left in the 2nd quarter is embarassing
deferring to everybody else
defenses playing 5 on 4 due to his ineptitude offensively
fans applauding him when he makes freethrows like a special needs kid...

get him the fukk off this roster.

Tobias choosing the biggest moments to turn back into the hoe ass nikka he was

Doc not understanding how to tighten up rotations and blowing another series.

salute to atlanta...

Morey will make some shyt happen

Tobi had a terrible game but I'm not mad at him. He was bound to have a dud eventually. Coming into this game he was averaging 24/9/4 on 54/40/83 splits for the playoffs and 21/8/4 on 59/44/67 splits for this series. He's been playing really well
It's all Ben and the bench

True, but Tobias was mad about not being an allstar. Felt he got snubbed, well these are the moments to shut people up. You got PG13 over there beating Utah with no Kawhi. If you want people to put respect on your name, you gotta do it when it counts.

Its been Seth Curry thats been filling that role for us recently.

He’s played bad back to back games he was terrible on Monday. Don’t let those 20pts fool you between his forcing and dumb passes he’s played terrible.

You can say he was forcing but he had 20 points on 15 shots, bad passes but he only had 1 turnover. Tobias has a tough job often having to try and carry that bench unit, he's no star but I don't think he's the problem either

 

[Flight]

I think this is a bit too much. He’s been bad the last 6 quarters but he’s had a good playoff run.

 

[KingJay]

He looked slow last night. I know he been battling that knee injury but no excuses with what Embiid been doing.

No excuses on last night, he was terrible, my only point is over the course of this series and these playoffs he's been good and he's not the problem with the team. We should be able to stomach one bad game out of ten from him

I mean I just don't think he was an all-star, I don't think that's a point of criticism for his game. One bad game out of 10 isn't a problem to me, he had a terrible game but he's clearly not the problem with this team moving forward.
Also if we're talking about stars let's not bring up Pandemic P's inconsistent ass let's not forget his three game stretch last year of 11ppg on 21%FG and 16%3PT costing the Clippers two games to the Mavericks
Or against the Nuggets when he had 10 points in game 4, and again only 10 points in game 7 on 4/16 shooting with 5 turnovers losing the series

PG can't be the standard

 

[AVXL]

Not here to troll, but just for a laugh. this dude looks and sounds like a wrestler cutting a promo

He’s a huge problem moving forward with that contract. He’s not a star level player with a max contract. I don’t think he’s our biggest problem our biggest concern is our cap situation because Brand overpayed Ben and Tobias. We won’t get much value for Ben and Doc has shown why the Clippers let him walk. Doc has proven to be Brett 2.0 this postseason.Tobias is a decent 3rd option but our 2nd option can’t shoot and plays too passive because he doesn’t want to shoot free throws.

me trying to figure out possible trade packages for the aussie

It's not that hard. Just don't expect a superstar back. OKC might spare you some picks for Ben if the ping pong balls don't go their way.


The question is, who is the ideal PG you want on someone else's roster and after you come to grips with the fact that Lillard ain't coming, who are you willing to settle for?

Garland if the Cavs get lucky?
Brogdon?
Wall?
Schroder?
Dragic?
Murray?

I mentioned it before we legit might have to keep him and boost his value somehow. Morey won’t trade him while his stock is at his lowest as it has to be right now.

No doubt that contract is an issue, but I don't think we're able to move that. I'm just saying when it comes to on the court production Tobias has been all we've wanted him to be in these playoffs. We know the player he is, and he's honestly been a little better than that these playoffs. You can win with Tobias a 2.5 option, he's fulfilling the role I thought he'd fill very well. The problem is Ben not being the guy we need him to be, and the bench on a lot of these nights looking like one of the worst in the league

I don't think his value is that low. If Ben were to "boost his value" then you're not gonna wanna get rid of him.

Ben becomes the biggest star available on the trade market if he winds up there.


OKC can give you 4 firsts and 4 seconds and still have an obscene amount of trade capital for example. Morey has a better sense of who would trip over themselves to get him.

Jonathan Kuminga and more picks does nothing for Philly. Joel is entering/in his prime now. They need guys that can contribute now.
