I was unaware you were on the Sixer's medical staff...

Correct it, a horrible 'preseason' game.....and how do you know the problem.

Who cares, Ball hasn't been good and Lakers sat him in their last game. Let him sit, for all we know Brown could have told him to drive more last game (cause its a preseason! game) and that was his concentration to get used to NBA contact.

He shouldn't have to play cause someone said so on a message board. I trust the process, staff, and coaches more than what we say to be honest.

If you want to be taken seriously and not be labeled a troll, stuff like this doesn't help. If you didn't want to draft him fine, but how the hell do you know what his shoulder feels like?



That ship has sailed for that poster a long time ago.

"hiding him"....what does that even mean. He can't be put away for the upcoming 82 game season. He's obviously going to play soon :noway:.

Maybe he has a legit shoulder injury or maybe they want to give him a day to clear his mind about his shooting motion (like a baseball player in a slump). Who cares....it's freaking preseason.

Maybe it's not him hiding. Maybe he's really hurt or maybe Colangelo doesn't want to take a chance on a bad performance against Boston (Danny Ainge) on national TV.

I think it's pretty clear they are treating him like they do with everyone else.

get a chipped fingernail and you sit. With our history of injuries, they don't wanna risk anything. Saric hasn't even been playing bc of rest.

I'm just disappointed. Ball played like trash in his first Summer League game. He played the next game and balled out. I like seeing how players rebound when they play poorly. It shows me what their mental psyche is like. Fultz probably never had a game as bad as on Wednesday. How do you respond when you are down and things aren't going well? And I want to see him against a good team like the Celtics. I apologize. It just really gets to me from the Sixers always sitting players. I know they are doing what they think is best but after 4 years it's so annoying. Why is everyone always hurt?

Fultz took a hard spill last game after a drive. Shoulder soreness makes sense.

besides its just preseason. **** relax

Dude he balled out in summer league! Against scrubs... He's been trash against NBA players. His shot is terrible. The only thing he has is his passing. According to your logic Ball should be playing now as well. Why does he get a pass for his ankle sprain? You know how the sixers medical staff is. Why don't you realize that we always baby our players, and this is just them babying Fultz.

Okay, so the rest of your post is about the sixers... Make it about the sixers then... Don't blame Fultz, because you blame him for a ton of other things. Injuries are part of the game. Cautiousness is the M.O. of this team. Blame it on the team, but not on the player. It's getting to a point, that I'm going to stop coming to this board... We know you didn't want him, we know you don't think he's fast, can't shake a player, has poor handles, and doesn't have elite athleticism. Please start coming up with a more original argument, or don't say anything at all. People will respect you way more, if you bring something new to the table, as opposed to repeating yourself. Nagging about it, isn't the way to go.

Should be a fun game follow Simmons around. A lot of talented, taller wings to throw at him.

I'm not upset about Fultz missing a preseason game, but I'm annoyed that 3 of our top 4 prospects are out. All 3 of which I'd expect could play if this were a more meaningful game.

That's a good point and it's in Boston.
