Bust Simmons - Sixers 2022 Season Thread

[tremonthustler1]

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

Then Ben is your best bet unless you wanna knowingly sacrifice talent for fit

I think he’s stuck with them until next trade deadline right now…

I still don’t think breh is good at play making but I feel a bit more content in the post Ben world with Maxey’s pure will to take over. nikka wants to win

Maxey has confidence, drive, energy, and "it" factor. His defense is much improved, I thought he looked good on Trae and Lou Will, and his ability to penetrate off the dribble so easily is huge.

An offseason to refine his game a little, he could make big strides and really become a very good player

Maxey is a killer. I’ve seen enough…he needs one more offseason to compose himself and watch film.

he has it.

Yeah I mean, my takes just come from watching breh for a couple seasons and having not seen it yet. But year 2 is when nikkas make that jump, so it ain’t like his story is written yet or anything

his defense on Trae was impressive…that step back Trae did, nobody could’ve altered that…maybe Simmons. But Maxey was able to keep up with him and hound the ball…ripped him under the basket too

 

[Rigby.]

I ain’t talking about anything in reference to him except his ability to be a “point” btw

obv bro is a gamer

Ben's obviously an elite defender, but we've always known he's not one to handle small super quick shifty guards, it's unfair to expect him to be able to handle those guys. Maxey actually has the quickness to stay in front of Trae.

Yeah he was smart too, didnt game too much for steals or nun like that

Ben being gone ain’t an absolute but if they can replace breh with just a vet that got some point forward ability, ala Portland Nick Batum, they’re really in an interesting spot. Esp if Matisse finally figures out the shooting aspect

 

[Flight]

Maxey is him…

The kid played with a poise none of our vets did for the first half.

Gotta send some love to Seth. Came into the game 21ppg on 63%FG 58%3PT this series, and again dropped 24 points on 8/14 FG and 6/9 3PT

His dependability this whole postseason is remarkable…salute that man

Btw I’d seriously considering hacking Capela going forward. Give them a taste of their own medicine
