Ben Simmons will stay the same player unless his mentality changes, if this situation hasn't changed it then nothing will. Most people have high hopes that he becomes more than just the rudy gobert of point guards, he certainly has the talent. People like Marcel Proust kissing his ass and being yes men to simmons has lead to this situation.

His highschool coach use to give him s**t and be aggressive with him which forced him to shoot. Hasn't had a coach like it since...

I hope Ben reports, and plays for Philly, and just goes out and starts launching 5x threes a game. Just do it.

I don't think I am kissing his ass some providing some balance. The anti Simmons narrative is a bit dumb.

Those that want to argue embiid isn't injury prone are clutching

No wonder he didn't tell anyone. He would've got jumped.

7 odd foot and one of the most athletic people in the world. You'd have to go pretty hard.

I'm assuming he rolls with security too

Ben Simmons thread for those banned on BigBen.

 

[Clubs are trumps]

Hehehe. If Ben suits up for Philadelphia its a must see event.

 

[Kezza86]

You know what's baffling? People stupid enough to think that being able to see that both parties are at fault is taking one side or the other. I've said it plenty of times.

Ben f’ed up
Philly f’ed up

Both parties are to blame.

Add manager f’ed up as well.

Ben needs a bit more Mattisse Thybulle in his life.

 

[Total_Juddshanks]

I don't think the jury is remotely still out on Ben Simmons.

He's experienced enough and has had enough missteps for it to be obvious his character is fundamentally flawed. He's a natural coward who will always take the easy option, and will always bail out when faced with adversity. He's simply too weak minded to be a star.

At his age it is extremely unlikely those things are going to suddenly change. They are as much as part of his innate makeup as his height or agility or hand eye coordination. Saying he could be a hall of famer if he sorted out his mentality is just as true and as useless as saying Patty Mills could be a hall of famer if he grew 7 inches taller.

We all do. That guys a legend.

Hope you tried this in the off season Benny

Rick Barry is top 10 FT% of all time

Can we change the threat title? We've gone through a few different "futures" might be time to try our luck with Giddey....

 

[moistie]

Highlights from yesterdays game, but check out the move at 2.17 in particular.

Nah I actually like it. Or maybe we could go retro. How about featuring Paul Kuiper?

Not sure what is worse. The news about Dante or the writing in that article.

Man, Dante can't catch a break. With injuries and seeming to just be wrong rosters at the wrong time.

What's his likelihood of succeeding in Europe? Could get another chance later in the season.

Sad day for Exum Island residents.

I'm on Exum island until I die. Or Dante dies in a freak basketball accident.

Horrible news...

G-League maybe? Probably better to stay in the US rather than potentially get forgotten about in Europe.

Reminds a bit of Ingles in his ability to just play his own tempo.

 

[tombomb]

Maybe some of the footage is a bit selective, but Simmons just looking like a total brat at Philly training.

I dunno who he takes advice from or if he would even listen to it, but they need to tell him to grow up.
