Bust Simmons - Sixers 2022 Season Thread

[jdashmaj]

Doc plays the bench way too many mins he has to do a better job getting guys in and out without having the entire bench out there or only having one starter out there. Also ideally Tobias or Seth shouldn’t be the guys he chooses to stay with the bench either. Doc has been great other than that but that has been evident these last couple games especially with Shake out.

 

[JoelB]

Shake out of the lineup is like night and day. I never want to see that all bench lineup ever again...

 

[Leasy]

Yeah Morey gotta make them moves because this bench is terrible and we need more veterans off the bench

 

[Flight]

Bench needs to be upgraded. Tobi can’t have a game where he doesn’t shoot any threes. He has to get up 4-5 a night

 

[JoelB]

When seth goes out with covid you can feel the absence
Shake is out you feel it...
Embiid is out...shyt, u already know

This team is too shallow. Cant realistically expect Maxey/Furkan to keep us in games when starters go out against real teams. Can we please bundle up Mike Scott and get a damn stretch big.

I know Drose wanted to play for Thibs again, but that only took Dennis Smith jr and a 2nd rounder.

Great point, I missed the game so I can't speak on it but that's the main theme I get from our team so far.

Our record is a little inflated at the moment IMO, the team is very shallow and dependent on each player to perform in their role and if just one player is missing or doesn't perform we will lose the game

Gotta improve the bench and get some reliable scoring from someone other than Shake

 

[JoelB]

Im proud of Tobias and Ben I thought they was gonna lay down like some hoes but they fought.

This road trip was great for us bc now Morey knows what needs to be done. Lets fortify this bench and we finals bound.

I just need Korkmaz and Scott to

Go get Redikk at the deadline and maybe go after Blake if he's bought out as a stretch 4 off bench

 

[Leasy]

Missed the game will rewatch while working tomorrow but this is the Ben Simmons everybody been wanting since day 1. Proud of dude man. On the other hand, Morey gotta make some moves asap because this team is ready.

I really really can’t stand Korkmaz. Please bring back Reddikk, get Delon Wright or George Hill, Blake and/or Bjelica.

 

[KingJay]

Can't be mad at this game, great showing from Ben. I think he actually might be the guy to run as the backup 5 if we're not facing a dominant post-up big man or something like that

Finding a backup PF and backup PG are the top deadline priorities, although another wing shooter wouldn't hurt since Furkan is struggling. A stretch combo forward is the dream, but idk who that is on the market

 

[JoseLuisGotcha]

MV-Biid dropped a 50 piece bruhs

 

[Kliq_Souf]

Joel and Ben have career highs the same week

 

[JoelB]

When was the last time a center averaged over 30ppg

1999-2000 Shaq put up 29.7
