It’s disingenuous to say it was one post season. In every playoff exit the Sixers have had since Ben came to the Sixers he did a disappearing act. 2018 - Celtics, 2019- Raptors, 2021 - Hawks. It wasn’t one playoff. It was every playoff.
Okay, but not nearly to the extent of 2021.
I am obviously not changing your mind on this. Of course fans aren’t expected to be clairvoyant and assume a player has mental health issues.
BUT.
Playing poorly is not the same as quitting. Not fair to equate the two. He can’t handle the big moments and may not ever be able to.
And it is all right here.
There was zero talk from Ben Simmons about demanding a trade or not playing in Philly until Philly fans said his time in Philly was done.
