Joel, an actual superstar who is in camp to do his job with his team calls out the emo hiding behind Adele's skirt for acting like the weak assed loser he is and Joel is the dumb one? He took back the narrative, and as for proving people right, your man Benji proved everyone else right about him ten times over this summer and in the playoffs. Leaders lead, cowards call Rich Paul to spread crap about others because they don't have the balls to man up and say anything themselves nor improve their game.

It isn't that Simmons can't shoot, plenty of guys can't shoot, Simmons is so AFRAID of failing at anything he refuses to shoot or try to improve his weaknesses and spends all of his time trying to double down on the things he is already good at. Yeah, that dude is a freaking genius trying to play PG without the nads to take a shot for fear it might look bad if he misses.

Lies.


“Hey Rich, can you leak news to reporters that I’ll never play another game with Embiid again?”

-Ben Simmons


"Because he's straight lying to my face, he doesn't really want to work on the situation or change his play to make it work between us. He is a two faced liar."

Thanks for finally telling the truth Embiid.


Our 7’2 center shoots more threes than many guards in this league to compensate for Ben. That’s a joke right?

Yeah he likes playing with him, that's why he and the organization have bent over backwards to accommodate Ben over the years, which was Embiid's whole point. Not sure what's so hard to get about that.

If we’re being honest here, what Ben allegedly said is correct

He said that the team is built for Joel and that’s how it should be

No lies detected

He also said that he wants to be on a team built to suit his strengths

Again, fair enough

The problem is that he’s got a 4 year contract not anything that he said about Joel in that latest leak

Joel does whatever he wants to do

How many times has he said that he doesn’t like taking 3s before going out and taking even more?

That’s not going to change whether Ben is here or not

Lol

Dude he took 5 shots in the 4th quarters in the Atlanta series and shot under 40% at the line. Lol. He is afraid of his own shadow when it gets to be big nut time.

Glad somebody finally had the balls to call out this big, 6’10 Baby Huey wannabe punk. I know Doc and Daryl have to be a little more diplomatic, but I’m tired of the ass kissing.
always a jump shot away.

Yeah, all these arguments are so bizarre and backwards I don't know how to respond to them seriously. I don't even know where to begin. Just waiting for him to end up in Sacramento in a starting lineup with Fox and Richaun and for him to act like that's somehow the perfect fit.

Like Embiid said, the whole situation is weird.

Probably Simmons fanboys should find a different Board to post on. I see all the less reason to not just let his ass sit until some of the teams that have typical training camp delusions of grandeur fade when the lights come on. Sixers can stop wringing their hands and licking Simmons taint, the true alpha has scent marked the omega and now he can sit and play Call of Duty until Morey finds a use for him in a trade that benefits the Sixers, the Team this Board is about.

I used to be one of those people that had high hopes for Simmons, defended the hell out of him, and now realize it all just babied him more and more when people did that. No more, Philly has had enough and his true colors are showing on his way to being our favorite target to boo for the next half dozen years.

If only Simmons Understood how foolish he looks the whole world saw him unravel in the Atlanta series and yet he blames everybody else. Seriously, no one you hear on TV is taking his side as a matter fact they are calling him scared. He must be getting some terrible advice from his family and friends.

Here's the thing. Embiid has stayed loyal to this city and to his teammates. If Ben was his running mate, then it was ride or die with Ben. That's how Embiid looked at it. That's how he embraced it. There was never any comments on his part whether he knew in his heart that it wasn't going to work or not. He wasn't going to be the one to bitch up and complain and throw someone else under the bus. You can spin it however you want to support your agenda, IDGAF, but the bottom line is Ben Simmons bitched up. Turned petulant child through all this. A spoiled little brat who was never actually dedicated to the situation. I mean, did anyone really think he would finish his career here? I certainly didn't.
Of course Jo said he loved playing with Ben...Because he's loyal to the situation! Now that Ben has pulled the crap he's pulled and basically said FU to Jo, despite Jo and other teammates making the effort to STILL coddle Ben by flying out to LA...I guess the gloves are off at this point. WTF man? If I was Jo...After making all that sacrifice and effort to make this work just to have Ben spit in my face, i'd say the same stuff. In fact, the first time they go head to head watch TF out because Simmons is gonna get SONNED. He's the enemy now.

Some of you guys are completely bipolar when it comes to Simmons

He’s a bum, a coward etc.

But we’re not trading him for less than a mother load

I could care less if we trade them for a box of chocolates once you get past the first round of the playoffs the coward is virtually worthless. Come playoff time we will be a better team with Maxey and Thybulle.

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
