Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Nov 21, 2019 7:24 am

Ben Simmons said he plans to play in the 2020 Olympics for Australia as long as he remains healthy.


The commitment comes following news that Brett Brown will return as national team coach.


Simmons cited the relationship as part of the reason for his commitment.


"I'm excited. I'm looking forward to it. He's coaching me now, so we have a great relationship. I've known him my whole life. I'm excited to put together a great team," said Simmons.

Shut up mate, half done Australia doesn’t care for you playing.
The other half is waiting to see if you can actually do anything for us...

He is a great player,
But we shouldn’t be jumping through hoops.
After your first, you change, you mature, you dont just jump into things.

After getting dunked on for the first time, life becomes complex.

Ben Simmons is a fine nba player. Not sure he’s a good FIBA player. Greek Freak had his struggles at world champs
