    In the playoffs Simmons and Embiid are proven bums. Brooklyn with the sweep.

    Could be looking at a sweep.. Philly looked just awful.

    Ben Simmons was a no show, Embid thought he was Step Curry shooting 3's all game, I don't think he made one 3 point make.. Just bricks..

    This Philly team just sucks.. Jimmy Butler is their only player that showed up..

    simmon is trash.. dude only got one thing for him and that is height and maybe some speed.. other than that, the rest of his skills are average at best, nothing solid.

    Good thread. Very disappointing player. Most of it because he can't shoot -even coming in to set a screen for Embiid when he's driving rather than get the penetrate out of his way! Also, he's too cool -cool players don't fare well in the playoffs.

    And he didn't seem to work on it in the off-season. The facts are the facts. Sixers were also out coached the entire game massively.

    Simmons has been phenomenal the last two games. What a response!

    Not a big fan as at some point you’d think he’d develop at the very least a 15’ shot. Not many 6’11 guys have his ability though. Seems to have worked on his FT’s.

    The kid woke up.. Not trash anymore.. Be something really special if he ever learned how to shoot the ball from distance. He's just a slasher right now that can finish around the rim...

    Simmons did improve his post play from last year, people don't realize he's only in his second year, his shooting should still be an issue late in games, but we won't likely see that until the second round.

    obviously a definite stud so what he isnt a good jump shooter now neither was jason kidd nor magic early on they didnt get berated like this. just think he "cant shoot" and without that he's still a force, does about everything else well. noticed these days you can do a hundred things well and people only want to talk about the one thing you arnt great at its gotten pretty sick these days. he was shooting some mid range in college I remember just needs a boost of confidence. I noticed on his ft's if you watch him when they are showing the ft from under the basket mid way through his shot his left arm kicks out and you can tell thats what makes his shot bad there should be coaches to correct that but they havent bad on them for at least not addressing that

    Damn give the kid some time, not like he been around for years. Id think he prob work on his shot next few off-seasons and improve it some. Unless he lazy? I dunno anything bout his work ethic or lack there of. Some guys are content being who they are and being paid, the great ones fix the flaws in their games by working their asses off.

    Agreed banker. We forget he’s 22. Embiid only 25
