WHAT HAS HE IMPROVED AT OFFENSIVELY?


:devil:
:evil:
Controlling the pace of play, being a playmaker (he assists on the most 3s in the nba)

Post play, taking advantage of mismatches and getting to the line (he used to avoid contact due to his shooting ability)


Touch and finishing around the rim

One thing I'll weigh in to say as a guest in this 76ers room.
It's very disconnecting that Simmons hasn't improved at all since rookie season.
That's not a good sign at all as to whether he can be y'all franchise player to build around.
Scoring efficiency
Turnover rate
Drawing FT'S
Becoming all-defense


Are all things I'd consider "improvements"...now as a jumpshooter exclusively that's a different subject and he's definitely regressed from even an attempts standpoint...but as an overall player he's better than his rookie year..
They need to figure out like with any player how to properly build around his strengths and obvious weaknesses

HE DRAWS ONE MORE FREE THROW
WHICH IS NOTHING CONSIDERING
HE TAKES 64% OF HIS SHOTS
AT THE RIM.

HIS TURNOVER RATE DIDNT IMPROVE.

HIS "IMPROVED" SCORING EFFICIENCY
IS FOOLS GOLD.


HE JUST TAKES MORE SHOTS
AT THE RIM NOW.

HIS FG% HAS REGRESSED
FROM EVERY DISTANCE ON THE COURT.
EVEN AT THE RIM

Obviously Simmons needs to improve as a shooter we get it but its almost like they want this nikka to turn into Josh Smith and fukk up his efficiency so they can laugh when he misses and tell him he shouldn't be shooting

Paul George made 1 less three pointer per game than Steph Curry last season..I guess that proves that they're not really that different when it comes to shooting because it's just 1 basket by your logic :mjlol:...didn't even read the rest of that shyt... You see what you see nikka...God bless you

Right... Hopefully the next coach is creative with the way in which they deploy their offense because Jo and Ben are both exceptional talents and it would be a shame to have those two be split apart due to front office incompetence

It's pointless trying to explain to people the value of Ben and Joel when they already have a predisposed hate or dislike of them from the start. They'll just counter your points with numbers that don't tell the full story. Alot of the stuff we're talking about you kinda have to watch the games to see not just look at box scores but that's the era we're in with analytics and everything:yeshrug:


These same people will want Joel or Ben on their teams tho
