Ben is saying that he wasn't there offensively and yeah, that's a problem but he really needs to get in the gym and work on this stuff.

He's a great passer and sees the court at an elite level but what good is that if he doesn't know how to score?

I knew it was over when he was at the run and he got around Gallo but kicked it to Thybull instead of going up because he didn't want to get fouled.

Fans are shytting on Ben Simmons, but Doc Rivers is the real problem. He can't develop any players at all. He's got no strategy every year. Sixers and Clippers were making playoffs before him already. Celtics rebuilt themselves really fast after Doc left them. Like how much more proof they need to realize he can't coach an NBA team.

Don't forget that fraud Daryl Morey, refusing to trade Tyrell Maxey and a 1st for Kyle Lowry

These cac writers love Daryl Morey even though he hasn't won anything and got lucky off the James Harden deal

Because he has a PG who can't shoot who defender can cheat or double team him at will. There are a ton of videos showing this shyt. He will put better numbers up once Simmons is outta there;.

When your “point guard”, cant score outside 4 feet and you want to get him going… kinda hard to plan a 7’2 big on the block clogging up the lane, right?
Yet he plays the same way when Simmons isn’t on the floor. Played the same way when Simmons was hurt and missed those games last year. He doesn’t play like that because of anyone else but himself. Y’all gotta stop letting that man slide. If it was Giannis, y’all wouldn’t.

You can't be serious... So it's Seth's fault that Simmons averaged 6 PPG in games 5, 6, and 7?

You cant blame a first year coach for a player going 0-0 in the 4th quarter in the last four games in a playoff series. Especially when said player is one of the deciding factors in the pace

Doc Rivers ain't shyt. Look at his track record: blown three 3-1 leads and three 3-2 leads, and now lost three home games to a weaker team. What's excuse for Doc Rivers next year then?

I'm not a Doc Rivers fan either but this is on Ben. Bruh didn't shoot the ball in the 4th quarter of the last 4 games. That says a lot for the guy that's supposed to the best or second best player on the team.

Ben was shooting decently in summer league when he was drafted. Then somehow someway he completely lost confidence. That is also on Sixers staff to figure out. Did they fukk up his jumpshot like they did to Fultz or what?

Doc has to bench him tho, at least late in the 4th quarter. Tough thing to do but it had to be done. The same thing with Trez getting torched by Jokic in the bubble every game last playoffs. We were one adjustment away from going head to head with the Lakers in the WCF but Doc refused to make the change cause Trez was his guy even if it was a detriment to the team

I will say this, the hawks are talking real spicy right now. How does their front office view this season? Overachieving? On track now after being presumably held back by Lloyd Pierce? Just curious as to how they approach their immediate future.

He should be, he's got new blood up in here. No outcomes are preordained for now. This has been great. If anyone said they had picked these conference finals beforehand, we'd all be calling them liars. shyt has been piff breh.

This ain't gonna pull in the casuals though, and prob not enough viewers to matter. It could've been worst - Utah & Denver could've been there, but from a business perspective, this is failure by all accounts.

Honestly, I'd say that Philly blew this series more than Atlanta won it. With that being said, they've achieved more than a lot of people thought they would this season. It's not mean to say, but it's the truth. Philly should have closed the series out games ago.

With that being said, Trey will get his max after the season, but what about everyone else? Determine the pieces you want for your core going forward and consolidate assets and players that you don't. You can't pay every young player with potential on the roster nor should you.

Hunter went out for surgery and Cam is not coming back even though he has been cleared by doctors because management said its all about the future, this year is just getting experience.
