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?

Good. They'll dump him for pennies on the dollar in return and the Lakers or Warriors can swoop in and use him how he should be used.

Lol comparing Simmons to Wentz

I thought philly fans are smart

What would make you think that?

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Losing to Boston is one thing

Losing to Boston by 55 is another

My apologies

My apologies

But on the plus side for the 76ers they did have 17 more FT attempts and fewer TO's.

17 more? Shitty refs at it again

Maybe...

Fair point, Wentz doesn't quit.

Mental Health Problems Versus Mental Fortitude Problems: Shaquille O’Neal Wants Ben Simmons to Know There’s a Difference

The social media mosh pit has been locked in and extremely opinionated over the many underlying stories within the James Harden-Ben Simmons trade. At the […]

www.yahoo.com

On “Inside the NBA” on Tuesday night, Shaq let it be known how he felt about the Simmons ordeal, by breaking down the difference between mental health and mental fortitude.

As a superstar, as a professional NBA player, we don’t always get our way. The problem started when Doc made the comment, he was upset, backlash, and then the mental health thing came in. There’s a difference between mental health and mental fortitude. You know, I am not comparing him to me, but you don’t think I have heard ‘We can’t win with Shaq’? You don’t think I’ve heard ‘Shaq’s not worth $120M’? You don’t think I heard ‘Don’t throw it to Shaq, D-Wade, you shoot’? I’ve heard it all, and what makes us great is we learn how to persevere around all of that.

“Not gonna get into the mental health thing because I was in L.A. yesterday, and I’ve seen real mental health. How many homeless people out there and you just talk to them and like they have problems that we don’t know about. I wish him well … But the question is, if this problem arises again what are you going to do? You don’t think I get emails and posts and death threats? I done heard it all. I got booed before. I just wish if this situation ever comes around that he has a tough enough mental fortitude to be able to get through it.”

This isn’t Shaq’s first tough love take for Simmons. Last month, he called Simmons soft, which prompted Ben to end up in Shaq’s DM’s, and, according to Shaq, Simmons “wasn’t happy.”

...and without Harden yet, lol. Those FT attempts are sure to climb even further....

Really hard to take Shaq seriously, given his part in forcing the Lakers to trade him.

No doubt about that. Gonna be interesting to see what the new look 76ers & Nets look like after the break.
