As long as Ben Simmons is confident then he can make a pretty good bounce back. Don't forget he's still an elite defender and playmaker while being athletic af. Hopefully we can see some aggression with him driving to the basket though.

I wonder if Ben Simmons would have had this decline if he played in the late 90s/early 2000s when shooting wasn’t emphasized as much We saw guys who barely scored but did everything else win RINGS (Isiah Thomas voice). Guys like Ben Wallace and Dennis Rodman. Ben is Draymond except supposed to be faster and more explosive. I feel like guys like Mikael are better to have around than Durant for Bens morale and that’s the best part of all of this.

@poopoopeepee420698 ай бұрын
lol he’s the one that refused to play. his coach gave one (1) piece of criticism and he folded like a lawn chair, cut off all communication with his teammates and refused to play. he made embiid change his style of play to a stretch 5 to better accommodate him and his abysmal shooting, they let jimmy butler go because he didn’t fit with Ben, they tried to make it work with him as the centerpiece and he still refused to take a single three pointer. he’s got all the physical tools but he’s charmin soft, the only way he’s winning the chip ever is if he rides the pine with the warriors or nuggets or some shit.

For shorts/tik too that’s definitely the case just cause that’s obviously all the algorithm will feed you. You’re gonna get promoted shorts with a lot of reactions which has to do with what’s the most relevant topic. however if you listen to their full pod (my favorite basketball pod) you’ll understand that these boys actually talk about every team and any news whatsoever. But like use your brain, obviously your shorts feed isn’t gonna give you a video with 2 views talking about Kyle Andersons impact going forward, it’s gonna give you a clip with a lot of views and likes talking about something that a lot of people comment on.

@@eliyarrows2456 tbh i need u to look at the list of all #1 picks in history. bench simmons, bennett, darko, kwame brown, olakwandi, joe smith are the worst in recent memory. if u look at the names through most of them are recognizable and respected even if turned into a role player later in their career. for example derrick coleman (im a sixers fan btw) was a stud early on with nets but then later was a solid contributing veteran during his second stint with sixers. I consider that a good career. andrew wiggins redeemed his career... from elgin baylor on out, all the top picks have respectable careers if not hall of fame except for the ones i named and a few others. Starting as the man then be a role player. Larry Johnson was Him early. Big Dog was Him, C Webb was Him. Manning was Him.... Ben was refusing to play, lying about the back injury, doesnt work on his game at all, etc. All within 6 years lol. shits nasty af.

Idk, if he’s able to dribble and move well again then have him bring the ball up the court and bring Claxton up to set a screen, now you got an open paint with Ben and clax rolling for a finish or oop and then shooters all around him to round out the court. Or just have Ben play in the dunker spot until clax goes to the bench. It’s not impossible to play them together
