There was a play last night where Simmons was heading towards the rim, the only man in his way was Aaron fukking Craft

As soon as Simmons saw him he did a got damn 180 towards the 3pt line and dished the ball off in a hurry

Unless Craft has a 78' vertical, then I'm pretty concerned with that from Ben

He's going to one up himself more than once tonight

Russell was killing from the post yesterday, straght up bullying the other guards. May need more looks there and it's why I'm not too against having him at SG if that's what he's trying to do and have Clarkson run at PG.

Simmons reluctance to shoot or look to score is kind of concerning.
That's what he's always been. If Embiid is ever healthy, I don't see how that pairing works (or any of the other centers). I wouldn't want Jojo parked on the perimeter shooting threes.

Russell can't get any separation without a ball screen :mjlol:

dude was struggling to bring the ball up without turning around 3 4 times. I give him credit tho, he has worked on his body but he still needs more work to do.

I think we can all back off Danny ainge on that rozier pick

Dude is nice, might be the Celtic I'm most excited about this upcoming season

I never questioned it. I saw one workout and I was sold

Been saying this since last draft. Clarkson, for better or worse, should be the PG of this team. :manny:

Clarkson has no vision and can't see the floor. He just relentlessly attacks, which is great, but you can't win games going forward with him being the primary shot taker of your team. @Gil Scott-Heroin just has a grudge against Russell because he wants to stand by his Mudiay chops.

Noel at the 5 is the best fit for Philly

Clarkson has the athleticism and quickness to get where he wants on the floor; Russell doesn't. This isn't a knock on Russell either. I've said all along his focus should be on scoring first, playmaking second.

Let summer league summer league sway your opinions of players brehs

I've been saying this for over a year.
