Ben Simmons Trade Thread Part 6

Watch Ben go rouge on Paul and blame him for all of it. Come back like nothing happened and part ways with Klutch

That would be a good outcome.

His agent is the problem who has provided him poor guidance. Bogut has suggested his manager is one of the reasons for his withdrawal from the Boomers.

“Personally, I haven’t talked to him since the season ended,” the big fella stated. “Obviously, I tried, but it wasn’t successful as a lot of my teammates have. Like I said, it’s unfortunate the whole situation happened, but like I say we are a better team with him on the floor. I think there’s gonna be some adjustments, but it doesn’t need to be awkward. I mean, we are professionals. We want to win. I want to win. So he gives us the best chance to win so that’s what I’m gonna go with.”

Not exactly thrilled.

I feel like we should have this tweet pinned somewhere on the front page of the forum.

Very funny that he* made a whole thing about holding out all year just to fold in like 2 weeks. On to the next nonsense.

*through sources, natch

How dare you doubt Brian Windhorst and Jay Williams

Id expect initially fans will boo ben then eventually will cheer him.

Or fans will just cheer him from the start.

Once he starts hustling and playing hard it will be hard not to cheer for him.

Gotta wonder if there was even a little bit of discussion between Morey and Marks about kyrie/Ben while the nets were in town?

I dont think Sixers wants turning a headache into a different flavor of headache.

Leveraged investments

Where’s Tomjas saying Ben is loaded?

Needed it for the Deposit on the latest V18 Ferrari Mulligan

Though it looks oddly like a suped up Brinks Truck.

People are deluding themselves if they think he's dumping his agent and blaming him etc. His agent is LeBron's business partner ... LeBron is his idol and one of his best friends ... the agent now has motherfreaking Adele showing off about him on Instagram (these people love to show off on Instagram, I'm so glad Im not rich and famous, Id feel like a such a douchebag going HEY EVERYONE LOOK AT ME!!! OVER HERE!! LOOK AT MY FERRARI AND HOUSE AND GIRLFRIEND! LOOK, OVER HERE, YOU STOPPED LOOKING, COME BACK AND LOOK AGAIN!!! everyday...) ... this is virtually certain to be some sort of tactical maneuver. Get paid while demanding a trade instead of losing the money. He didn't even tell them he was going to show up, security didn't even know what to do. This is not the maneuver of a normal person in a normal situation. He just wants that CREAM bros.

Yes Morey was still in the middle of gathering his Welcoming Mob for Ben.
The Pitchforks hadn't even arrived yet, I mean the Welcome Banner.
Damn you Ben Simmons sneaking up like that.

Draft is the best format ever, so much fun if the set is great.

They've been printing a ton of flexible cards that limit mana screw/flood. I'm loving this current set so far.

Took them ages to fix the mulligan rule hehehehe MTG really is the best card game hands down not close at all.

Have you ever showed up to work late and tried to pretend like you were on time like everyone else?

Ok, the whole workplace analogy has been beaten to death along with the bus it rolled in on.... that also ran over Ben

Ben just came back for the money. We all know that. He still wants to be traded. Rich Paul is on plan F or whatever plan he thinks will work next. But the losing money plan clearly didn’t work for Paul and Simmons.

Simmons proving a point by showing up before the game really is so he didn’t lose another 300k game check

[Rastas]

So he only lost 2 Pre Season game checks and whatever for Training Camp.
I thought he would Donate a bit more to Charity before coming back.
Then again he would have to be Kyrie Level Crazy to throw away too many of those $300k to $400k Game checks.

Exactly

Turning up to Wells Fargo before tip off wasn’t a coincidence

Will save more when missing practice due to protocols

Can argue that he’s not game fit and save another couple of million while sitting out first week or so

I very much doubt that he’s had an epiphany and wants to be a Sixer

[erving4ever]

The notion that Ben is just here to collect his check is perplexing at best. Ben already took a Covid test as rules require. He is probably here to play or he wont collect his salary. Morey and Doc arent stupid. They havent given in 1 inch since the beginning, and I dont see that changing moving forward.
