Kwame Brown >>>> Ben Simmons

Darko Milicic > Ben Simmons

Kwame Brown >>>> Ben Simmons

Lol Kwame was complete trash. Talk about bad times...

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Heck at this point I'll take Kuzma for Simmons

That's how far Simmons has fallen IMO

You guys are going a tad far with this.

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Smush Parker > Simmons

 

[Stakesarehigh]

That's insane

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Kawhi to Philly on a sign and trade for Simmons and Philly first rounder every other year until 2100

All signs point to Ben being on another team next season

 

[ChrisperJ10]

Yo! I would sport this in downtown Philly! Would probably get free drinks all night

In fairness to Simmons, I'm pretty sure if the coaches told him to look for his shot, he'd be looking for his shot.

Sounds like a Max player to me...

Brett Brown told him that. He wanted a 3pt attempt every game.

Finally, Embiid calls him out

 

[wildturkey]

100% believe Ben Simmons would be in the hospital right now if Shaq was his teammate

 

[Ojb81]

Finally, Embiid calls him out

What did the tweet say?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

All three teams who should’ve traded for Kyle Lowry got bounced before the conference finals….

….this is not a coincidence

Masai kept him because he didn’t get what he wanted and at that value it was funnier watching every team fail miserably without him.

I wish he had just cashed in but I do have to admit it’s been fun to see LA, Miami and Philly all flame out with shitty play from their PG’s.

 

[Robotech]

That's insane

Geez, I thought people were exaggerating with the afraid to shoot comments, but those numbers prove it.

 

[tlance]

That needs to be the last game Ben Simmons ever wears Philly colors. How do some of you defend this fraudulent, fake superstar?

Nobody called Ben Simmons a superstar.

He was terrible in the playoffs. Really, really bad. Had he played as he did in the regular season, Philly wins this series rather easily.

Maybe he does need a need a change of scenery. Maybe he is too mentally weak to recover from the past few weeks.

But bottom line though, you are the one saying he is trash and ready to make a salary dump deal just to get him off the 6ers.

Mark my words, 6ers make a deal like that just to get rid of him, and their title contention window is over. Embiid, Harris and Curry is not enough.

I almost want to feel bad for the guy, but then I remember how much $$$ he's making...so I say nah..he's gonna be fine, wherever he ends up.
That said, the 76ers have some work to do during the offseason, and they're facing some tough choices.

Simmons takes blame: 'Offensively, I wasn't there'

After a postseason in which he was historically inept from the free throw line and struggled to score in the second round, Ben Simmons shouldered the blame, acknowledging he "didn't do enough" for his 76ers teammates and needs to get his mind right.

Yikes!
I knew it was bad.
But that's worse than insane.
It's disgustingly unacceptable.
And I'm not even a fan of the 76ers.

But....wow. Just wow.
