Why now though if its been a problem for so long :dead:. It sounds like some chump/scapegoat shyt to me. I cant rock with that if its something they let fester. Breh is in his ways now. Its up him to fix whatever, its too late to mold dude.

I agree Simmons should be held accountable ten fold, but the timing combined with the media acting as puppetmaster is :patrice:. Just ship dude out and call it day. The coach and the star player dont believe in you, its a wrap in Philly.

Because he's never been called out for by anyone except for the media.

Media criticized him earlier this season Pop came to his defense.



Whenever they're on ESPN and Mark Jackson criticizes him JVG and Doris Burke come running to defend him.

People need to stop handling him with kids gloves and it all starts with the organization. So good for them.

This and I blame his coaches too. If I'm a coach and you refuse to shoot as a PG I'm benching you until you learn.

Didnt embiid turn the ball over when they still had possessions left? :patrice:

I'm shocked he didn't have more, since you can't ever put the ball in the hands of your number 1 pick "point guard" cause he can't shoot, won't shoot, and can't make freethrows. The fact that Embiid is even handling the ball at the 3 point line is a direct result of how trash Ben Simmons is.

it's getting to the point where if you can't shoot you ain't really ain't a factor in the league*

If we're talking about guards, I'd say it's not getting to the point, it's been that way the last 2-3 years... To have the ball in his hands that often and not be a shooting threat absolutely tanks an offense.

That would definitely be more effective than just throwing some snide remarks to the media, if/when they ask why then you can answer with all of the armor you need.

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.
Not really. They must know they gotta get rid of Simmons. That’s not hard.

what IS hard is gonna be finding a team to take a giraffe for an nba player
