Bust Simmons - Sixers 2022 Season Thread

[Brocka]

You've made your point clear to where Ben stands with you, I'm not ready to give up yet

People keep saying the samething over and over

It's Like damn we get it. You either love or hate Simmons there is no in between and therefore, most people can't be objective when it comes to evaluating him

Props to Morey for creating a team that both suits Joel and Ben; where they can both thrive and grow.

Ben's strengths don't show up on a stat sheet and with the AAU mentality running rampant among NBA fans (shoot, shoot, and if nothing else works shoot some more) most people won't appreciate what he does bring to a team i.e. His vision & ability to facilitate and get shooters open.

It's up to Ben to take that next step now. I'm more concerned with him staying aggressive and assertive more so than his actual shooting

Need to put Mike Scott in and have him drop Grayson. That cac just intentionally tripped Danny Green.

Offense without Embiid is tridash

but Ben will likely get his 10 point triple double tho

Brehs know I'm a longtime Simmons apologist but that 4th quarter from him was appalling.

Scared to post up Grayson Allen???

I’m not sure if it’s the knee, his confidence or the rumors affecting him but what the fukk was that game...

If y’all wanna get 3 1sts and pick swaps out the ass and all that for Ben, it’s available to y’all.

but when y’all wind up like every other Morey built squad, you’ll know why.

I think his knee isn't right, lacks explosion he had last yr

If so I would sit him for a bit. Shake and Maxey can hold it down.

He is 5 months removed from his surgery from last year, to me he honestly hasn't looked like Ben since before that knee injury in the bubble


Ever since then he seems to be getting worse


He should stay off social media tonight, they're murdering him right now

He hasn’t looked as explosive before but I don’t think I’ve seen an alarming drop so far yet.

Worst thing is I feel shyt like social media criticism makes him go into a shell...he just gotta figure it out. The shooting 3’s is cool and all but I’d rather him get better from the free throw line.
