Bust Simmons - Sixers 2022 Season Thread

[dontreadthis]

That’s it breh. Why trade for a Cj and lock ourselves into a 5 seed and hope he heats up in the playoff. There will be a star available in the next year or so and Ben will rehab his value. Or even better maybe he gets over his issues and can give us 16-18 ppg in the playoffs.

lol you think Ben Simmons is worth about 10 team wins more than whoever replaces him in the lineup?

I think urgency has to be felt. Jojo can't stay healthy and big guys don't age all that well either, especially with the litany of injuries he's had. How many MVP caliber seasons does he have left in him? 4-5? If that?

They can't keep fukking around and try to figure out what's wrong with Simmons. The time to win is now. They squandered a massive opportunity to get to the Finals this year.

If I’m moving anyone I’d probably try the CJ for Tobias swap tbh.

In the regular season? Yeah...Simmons will make your team look good in the regular season. His defense + ability to setup our shooters would impact the win column more than someone like CJ on the roster averaging 21ppg

watching these playoffs got me feeling sick...we're never gonna forget about this blown opportunity.

This still doesn’t feel as bad as 2019 to me. If Joel and Ben showed up Game 4 against Toronto we’d have a chip by now This yr is very annoying though because I believe just like 2019 we could have gotten past the Bucks in 5 or 6 games

Fultz and Ben both were wasted 1st picks. Fultz forced his way out and now Ben is potentially doing the same

I’m sorry but that Woj article rubbed me the wrong way nh…

The team has done everything you asked…but you never held up your bargain of the deal offensively.

We should have two chips.. Both times the path was easiest, no Lebron, no big 4 warriors, no big 3 nets, we squander it away to a lesser East time (raps, hawks).. We ain't beating no fukking healthy KD, Kyrie and Harden even if Ben starts shooting 40% on jumpers. Lebron tooling up again. Klay back...

We do it every single time

I just don’t understand Ben

This was our best bet at a title …if Ben woulda been avg at least 15 we walking to the finals

for me it’s Dame or bust

Nooooooo not Zu I’m blaming Ben clown ass for this too. We should’ve given Zu a title on his way out

 

[Kliq_Souf]

I’m taking a year off from this team, nothing but bad news

Ayton about to get a ring before Joel.

The Australian will pay for his crimes man..
