@ModernJamYT I pin my sack to a dart board while edging and massage my P spot with a lucky rabbits foot Still haven't been struck by lightning, so it's working
The fact that he’s getting 8-10 points on 6 shots playing heavy minutes is a great sign imagine he takes a few more n he’ll have his Philly numbers again
Especially since the nets are really positive about him. He needs to make brooklyn his home and be confident about himself again. Do what you're best at, do crazy shit if you want even if it fails. It'll work eventually when everyone's on the same page. And if this roster clicks they'll be a huge thrreat in playoffs no doubt. As long as simmons has fun he'll go back to his highs and reach his ceilling i'm sure of it. You can't tell me that the simmons who carried phily when embiid was injured disappeared completely i cannot believe it.
I never understand what people mean when they say "come back." You do realize the old Ben was shit, right? There's reason they got bumped from the playoffs every single year and he eventually had a mental breakdown after his coach and teammate said true things about him because he's afraid to shoot a free throw. So yeah, let's bring that guy back, shrug.
If Ben Simmons was a role player making 15M a year or less then what he is doing now is fine but when he is making 50M he needs to do more than that dawg.
and everyone kept saying he’s gonna start shooting 3’s cause of the offseason and shit smh he’s still not honestly it’s so disappointing what he’s become
Of course he’s great at finding open teammates the man is TERRIFIED to shoot the rock. It’s truly unfortunate too considering just how much of a unicorn he could’ve been with that size and his handle
It's not even the fact that he doesn't shoot. Like yeah shooting would be great, but the bigger issue is he's genuinely scared to score. Giannis can't shoot for shit but he'll still barrel into the paint and either score or go to the line, but Ben is so terrified of the free throw line he doesn't even wanna try score.
I respectfully disagree with the video. Ben Simmons has an extremely high floor and an even higher ceiling. But he squanders his gifts repeatedly. I really did try to give him the benefit of the doubt, especially when he came out and said he had mental health issues. But then he took that picture of himself watching his team lose in his mansion... I guess it's mental health was cured with his money kicked in. I don't have any respect for him as a basketball player or a person.
Lol he has a very low floor, he has shown his floor for the last two or three years and it can honestly get worse. His ceiling imwill always be insanely low as long as he is stubborn and refuses to chsnge his game. He might as well retire if he wont lol
Ben has the physical tools and talent to be a Chris Paul / Dennis Rodman mix. BUT He has the mental toughness of a 13 year old girl that responds to every negative comment on her TikTok.
Being a pussy is not a mental issue. For some context, he's the same age and same height as Jokic. Those who use the word "great" or "was great" on Ben Simmons don't understand basketball IQ and it's obvious.
Simmons will go down as the king of the triple single, an elite defender, and a career role player. He will likely never be great but consistently very good for a long time.
The shooting thing doesnt really matter imo, look at Giannis for example. I think the main problem is thag he won't drive to the basket or try to score inside like he did in Philly. The tricky part is we dont know if its lack of confidence/mental health or if its because hes afraid of the contact since his back surgery.
None of this is new, what am i missing? What about his free throws? Hows that going for him? That's his only issue, i guess that's his main issue. What about his jumper? Did i miss those highlights? He had been working on that for the last 5-6 years.
Ben resonates some serious 666 energy.... last year he averaged 6 pts/reb/assists... this year (2023), he averages 6 pts/assists, and only played 6 games... averages 6 shots per game. What's really going on here?
Ben's game is what it is i personally think he is a good player and i like him. Problem is the rest of the fans and media look at his size and demand more from him instead of affording him the same opportunity as a Tony Allen a Rodman a Draymond green let him play his game instead of demanding him to be the next whoever. I am glad he is playing again the league is better with him init.
Only thing holding him back is himself, he doesn’t need to shoot as there’s plenty of All Time players who wouldn’t shoot but would still dominate with Shaq being the best example. Ben needs to be aggressive, he needs to flat out score. He never had the deepest bag when it came to scoring, but he was so good at it. Now he looks like he isn’t even trying to score in the slightest. Him rebounding and facilitating is nice, but Brooklyn desperately needs him to score. That’s the sole reason they traded for him cause they assumed they’d get the Philly version of him. Now what they have isn’t even on par with his rookie self.
A 76ers fan here. We dont hate Ben. We called him "The Fresh Prince" for a reason. We really thought we could win a chip with Simmons and Embiid. We do wish him the best of luck
As a SIXER for life we did not think we would win a ring with Bum Simmons.We cheered him on out of courtesy.And after he QUIT on us then DEMANDED a trade we do not wish him the best of luck.Of Cours JJ reddick loved Bum Simmons cause he racked up assist by just passing the ball to JJ.That made J.J.s day! Reddick was a catch an shoot player.Its easy to get assist if you just pass to Reddick for shots duh! He is forever a liability on the court cause he won't attack the rim.
Such a polarising player. I personally think he’s done, you don’t have these many back injuries and come back, he hasn’t actually played well in how many years now? It’s not hate it’s just I can not fathom that much missed time, that many injuries, that many mental blocks to come back and be ELITE. I just can not think of a single person/sport who’s done All of that. But I’m sure there’s a nets fanboy that’ll swear I’m a casual who doesn’t know anything about the great Ben Simmons who only needs to rebound.
Hes not weird or anything like that.. he's just doing what the team wants him to do.. Make plays / Rebound /Get steals / Guard the best player / and whatever else. If you wanna score then score. But that's not your main role as the leading point guard.
Teams should just stop signing him once his contract ends and becomes a free agent. 🤦♂Most useless "All-star" at the moment. Refusing to improve his shooting and now sitting out games due to "injuries". Brooklyn bench players are more useful than him. Total waste of space and money tbh.
Is it inconceivable that he does practice shooting but it remains a weakness anyway? Shaq worked on free-throws... It's totally possible to make an effort and still be bad at something.
he is worst wasted talent in the NBA history! Seriously, he is stronger and faster than everyone you can see he can effortlessly run full court, can shoot left or right hand, can dribble, can pass. He got all the tools!
He cant dribble in the harcourt because he holds the ball to far away from his hip at a standstill.Thats why a lot of smaller guards get deflections on him in the half court.In the full court he can push pace because he is going down hill and his height can advance the ball ahead.But ultimately basketball is played in the half court and thats why he hurts your team with no offensive agrression.

Awesome video and title is on point. Ben is a great team player, unselfish and high IQ on and off the court. Humble.. a quiet guy that surely has valid reasons for what he's coming through. Great to see him finding himself in new ways. Sad to see all the hate he's gotten as potentially the most hated player of a generation. Sometimes humans can really suck.
I think the system failed ben So much like harden ben decided to fail it. They kept trying to make him something hes not rather than build something that works with what he is. All tf he needed was shooters to surround him. Let him slash and pass like shaq said. And a staff that builds his confidence rather than break it. Man was better off somewhere other than philly that also made it worse. In reality ben lacked the heart and no ones gonna baby you its the NBA. But it still could of gone so much differently
lol cope much? Even when he played that year in college Ben never could be fucked making the extra effort for team success. He was perfectly happy to give up and not listen to constructive criticism because he knew he'd be #1 in the draft. Some people pointed this out, but most got distracted by the fact that he was the best prospect since Lebron. He's never improved since then and coasted on the fact that he is indeed a semi-generational talent. And LMAO at Philly staff being mean to him. Imagine how long he'd last in San Antonio before he threw a hissy fit and forced his way out. Dude is a hell of a telent, and I don't have any ill-will to him personally, but seems pretty aparent that he like the fame and lifestyle and the thots a lot more than he likes the actual game.
@Kagemusha08 nah no coping im not a ben Simmons fan at all. Hes never done me no favors. Never even played for a team i even mildly care about. Facts are facts tho going to assume your a philly fan? Lmaoooooo Your surroundings contribute a lot to a players development. Even if he never made any growth he was dpy instantly. Man can contribute to anywhere even if hes never gonna achieve a higher ceiling. Plus hes mentally weak so this just makes what was said even more relevant. And yeah i could only imagine san Antonio made derozan suicidal lol. Hed rather move to the murder capital in the usa and that says something.

@@stopabledu found who doesn't play sports. Stop projecting
I'm actually rooting for this guy to break through his mental blocks and be great again.
It's his vaginal block that's the issue.
He simply is immature in my opinion. Also the dude had a 1.5 GPA. What I'm trying to say is that he doesn't work hard to be the best.
He was never great! His highest avg points a game is 16!!!!
Why? It's not like he's a former great or even a nice person.
He's getting serious again because payday is coming up
Simmons will go down as the king of the triple single, an elite defender, and a career role player. He will likely never be great but consistently very good for a long time.

He's a power forward who can pass.

9:45 he was saying run Ben. It is like his Forrest Gump scene where he wants to run away from the game.
As long as he better his teammates and does rebounds i think his lack of points should be ok i guess. Ge can slowly gain confidence
I want this man to be back so bad. He's only weakness is jumpshot, and that's so easy to practice
Yah praising this guy like he’s done something 😂
Big props to Ben for not taking bait from Stephen A type remarks.
Hes not weird or anything like that.. he's just doing what the team wants him to do.. Make plays / Rebound /Get steals / Guard the best player / and whatever else. If you wanna score then score. But that's not your main role as the leading point guard.
Him loose his confidence but he will be back
WAIT UNTIL THE NETS MAKE IT TO THE PLAYOFFS YOU'LL SEE THE PLAYOFF BEN!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
dang ben, u gotta be more confident
I don’t like him giving Stephen A Smith a pass. That guy is a vulture who’s got no business talking about sports.
Sas is right tho
This might be good enough but it's gonna get exposed HARD if they make it to the playoffs
Lamelo n Ben would be cwazy
Fast paced ball guards who got vision. Ben play points n lamelo shoot. That would be him
When he was on the sixers we just wanted him to shoot the ball get out of Embids way clogging the lane
Why shoot 2 when you can set a 3.
Lotta baby'n for a max money player. I know ppl are low-key tired of it
all on a max contract.....he is a mentally broken player.....that being said, he isnt a scrub, he would work any of us regular joes
I still see the scared puppy in his eyes
What's so curious? The dude sucks and is afraid to shoot. He can rebound and pass and set screens. But that is it! He should play power forward

Aside from the bullshit every team needs a Dreymond Green type player . Theres a reason why The Warrior's have 4 rings.
It's not bullshit tho
I’d take Taj gibson and carlos boozer over dremond green
@@basketballboygeniusDraymond absolutely doesn't want to shoot, even when he's left wide open. He's openly talked about losing confidence in shooting.
Draymond, Rodman, Ben Wallace, etc are/were not pussies. That's why they each have multiple rings as the main defensive cogs on their dynasties.
Ben Simmons is better then micheal Beasley as a playmaker but worse shooter. They’re the same player otherwise
