Embiid pump fake, goes to the lane and Ben Simmons down there trying to post up with his defender right next to him :francis:

Ben needs to be an elite finisher for this to work.

Guys like Millsap, Horford, Bron, Giannis gone give him fits.

Hopefully Fultz remembers he is an elite pull up guy and overtakes him as the season wears.

I'm not liking the effect Ben Simmons has on Embiid and Fultz :ld:


His lack of a shot is killing the spacing for Embiid, and him being on the ball so much hurts Fultz.
I called it bron ball game 1, and thats precisely what it has become really.

the issue if he does overtake him as the majority floor general, Simmons aint shyt off ball. They can split it of course, but any possession where Bens the one holding it down is gonna tend to look stagnant without elite off ball movement and they just too young to know that aspect rn

I think it'll get better obviously, but he definitely needs to learn how to shoot and Brown has to do a better job of getting Ben and Embiid on opposite sides of the floor.

I also want to see a Fultz, TLC/Reddikk, Covington, Saric, Embiid lineup.

It's not so much Bron ball, he's not really calling for high screens like Bron does, he's just always on the ball.
