Ben Simmons formally demands trade

[flyerhawk]

This is a a much fairer take than most of the thread

Including clown bags here

When it is all said and done, Simmons' problems weren't just poor play. It was how much he shrank in that series. And rather than owning up to that, he chose to act like a hurt child. What he SHOULD have done is take full ownership of his play and take those barbs as fuel to take his game to the next level. Instead he decided that it was time for him to run away.

As much as we all talk about how he fits with the Nets, let's see how things go when KD gets frustrated with Simmons. Because Simmons is a frustrating player. When he's clanging layups and bricking free throws and then hides in the dunker spot, we'll see what KD says.

Embiid shrank just as bad in the series vs Toronto but sixers fans not ready for that convo

There ya have it. Has to be legit now cause if he was lying why would he continue with the lie? That would make no sense. Usually liars just lie once.

He got ripped mercilessly for his Game 4 performance. Lost the series because of that. He got hammered for being out of shape. He got mocked for his tears on national TV after game 7. You don’t know this media. You don’t follow this media. You have no Fucking clue. You’re talking out your ass. The difference between Embiid and Simmons is Embiid took that shit to heart and worked on conditioning and ever since the bubble has been playing at an MVP level.

Big bad Embiid avg 17 and 9 with 4 turnovers per game on 36% shooting vs Toronto....nasty work

Did Simmons or Brown throw him under the bus to the media though?

You don’t have to do that here. This isn’t Miami or New Orleans. There are actually real sports fans up here that know the game.

So you don't think the cosch and best player throwing him under the bus to the media had any impact on simmons? You are very stupid

It had immense impact on the narcissist because people in that organization finally stood up to his nonsense and weren’t inflating his ego anymore. Truth be told if the Sixers didn’t kiss his ass your franchise would be dirt right now cause the only reason Butler is in Miami is because they chose appeasing Simmons instead of keeping Butler and offering him a max.

Miamo was never dirt. They didn't purposely tank for 5 plus years to still not even make a conference finals. They actually always try to win

 

[bksballer89]

That embarrassing tank job started 9 years ago and the best you done is make the 2nd round?

Damn, he only shot 37% from the field. Yikes

 

[bksballer89]

Miami been to 5 nba finals since philly last appearance. It isn't even close about which been the better franchise since Miami arrival to the league. They can't hold the heat jock strap

Gasol locked his ass up.

I look forward to the narrative on Simmons in about another year. It's going to be just like Carson Wentz. I thought Wentz also came up small because of those mean Philly fans right?

Nah that franchise was going nowhere until the Sixers handed them Jimmy Butler. They were investing in JRich Tyler Johnsons Justice Winslows and Hassan Whitesides of the world.

Mighty nice being located in a destination city.

The only one who would have stayed without butler would have been Richardson. With the development of Bam, Whiteside was a goner and likely Johnson as well. Winslow only got traded because he couldn't stay healthy and butler arrival had little to do with that

Lebron took his talents to South Beach and now Heat fans talk like they are a dynasty? How many rings since?

Dirty ass team with a thug coach who preaches bad basketball.
