Nah. His performance was unacceptable. They’ve tried “closed doors” conversations with him for years, and he hasn’t improved. His 4th quarter performance in particular has been completely unbecoming of a professional basketball player. Perhaps it’s best now to call the shyt out publicly, maybe that will serve as a better wake up call.

Season is over, just move on from Ben and call it a day then:manny:. If they were going to say something publicly to "fire him up" it should have been done earlier.

Imagine you adjust your game for a player for 5 years. Only for him to arrogantly say he doesn’t need to change his game while you and other teammates do it routinely.

Jo is right to feel a way. Just as if Ben wanted to feel a way for Jo being out of shape last year he would be right.
Ben got told he was traded for harden and then it fell apart. I genuinely think he sabotaged them on purpose a bit

Probably not. Joel got all types of time for players not even on his team, but he valued Ben's feelings enough not to herb him publicly?

exactly…him and ben in particular talked a GANG of shyt about other players and/or teams throughout the years…embiid at least backs it up to a degree tho

While Embiid had a pretty good series, he doesn't go without some of the blame. He disappeared during big moments too many times in this series. That said, Sixers got some tough decisions to make.


He hit big 3s in the 4th to keep them in it.

it's getting to the point where if you can't shoot you ain't really ain't a factor in the league*
It's the refusal to shoot that's the worst. As a fan I get annoyed when Giannis pulls up from 3 or tries to shoot jumpers,but I'll take that any day of the week over this bum passing up layups cause he's scared.
