Seriously sit Ben. He doesnt want it. So sick of the pick up the dribble for an out of control jump pass.

Siakam took 3 dribbles in the post. All our guys should have been back on D by the time Leonard got that pass. Unacceptable.

I'd really inquire about A.Davis this summer before free agency starts, might need to do something to keep Butler around.

I don’t want Jimmy on Kawhi tho. We need Jimmy’s energy for offense.

As you go further the margin for error gets smaller. Ben’s game is just not made for this type of games. The TOs, the poor touch and being unreliable on defense. Late game, you can’t even put him on the floor on offense.

Jimmy must have cursed everyone out.


Hope not, he’ll be known as a troublemaker like he was in Minny.

Yes sir. Get it done.

Call wolves and inquire KAT also.

Tatum looks like garbage. Ben should give them the best value for AD

During the offseason, I hope management comes to the realization that Ben Simmons is not right for this team.

Basically you just counted him out of the playoffs altogether.

He’s good against pretenders like Nets or Heat. But look how he folds against Celts and Raps. He’s just not made for playoff basketball

Just keep letting Green take wide open threes. It has worked so well so far tonight.

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
