Sorry but the team has actually been taking bullets to protect this kid lest the fans turned on him. He's even acted like he can't wait to go out there and play but he never had any plans on playing this year. This knocks Simmons down a peg for me. This isn't how a generational talent acts. This isn't alpha. He's a fraud. I know so many of you are going to be apologists and actually buy the company line that his CT scan came back bad....please don't. It's embarrassing how fanboys get with their idols. He's a punk. He led you on and let you down He very well might be a great player someday. But the stink of this will never wash off. He reminds me of Alex Rodriguez. Great talent...crap person and competitor. Sorry for your loss guys. I really am. I so badly wanted the process to work out so you we could have our rivalry back as we both load up with young prospects. This dude is going to leave PHI the very first opportunity he gets. I promise you. He's all about the image and bling. I'm guessing NY or LA as soon as he can force his way out. You better hope LAL doesn't get top 3 so you can take two studs to pair up with Embid and trade this waste.

Now we're going to finish this the right way. Tank strong into the close with Jah leading the way. You won't be crying anymore when we get Lonzo Ball, Josh Jackson, or Markelle Fultz because of this.

Our #1 pick's foot not healing properly is not a good thing.
Btw the Process was Hinkie, what Colangelo has done is some sort of wack gluten free knock off.
