Why has doc allowed Ben Simmons to only have 1 shot opportunity in the game. Come on doc, demand that Simmons become a go to scorer and run some plays for him. We need Simmons as a 20 point threat each game. He doesn't just need to be a facilitator in your system.

???

If anything, the demand for Simmons to become a focal point of the scoring has been happening already and is the actual problem. Recently, Ben has just been driving recklessly to the rim and committing charges, turnovers, and just been inefficient in general. We'd be better off if he were trying to score less, not more.

Well win a close on tonight imo. Sometimes Embiid has a bit of a selfish play to his game which is okay, but games like this are annoying. If he doesn’t get his he tends to check out sometimes

Says who. If doc publicly started saying he wants Simmons to get more touches and be a 20ppg scorer, I can guarantee you it would change our culture of Simmons just trying to be a facilitator.

I disagree. Simmons has only taken 1 shot in the entire match. That is completely unacceptable. He should be getting 15-20 shots per game.

Are you watching the game or just reading the box score?

How do you think Ben responds to being told to score more? He's just going to start driving to the rim a lot because that's the only way he knows how to score. He's been doing it tonight and it's been garbage offense. He's already committed at least 2 charges that I can remember and has turned it over 5 times.

It’s on both of them honestly. But Doc is afraid to get in anyone’s ass unless it’s Maxey. But he also can’t run on the floor and make his “All Star” assert himself in a game when we are missing firepower. It’s a shame. This is part of the reason why he needs to be able to shoot, it makes it easier to have an imprint offensively.
always a jump shot away.

We should be embarrassed that we're losing this. Another perfect example why Ben needs to be traded. We're have 3 of our starters and 3 of our bench guys.

You can't make max money and take 1 shot in a half. Period.

You can yell at the rookie who has not done anything.

You can’t yell at the dude who made all star teams and all nba and has a direct line to ownership.

Is this y’all first rodeo lol
