    Can you imagine having both of them in a bunker with you??? You'd be firing all your weapons while they are both pissing their pants, scared shitless. If I'm Embiid this morning, I'm throwing Simmons off the Walt Whitman bridge.

    LOL. Mac, I’d have to go out in a blaze of glory if they were in my bunker. I won’t lie, I’d execute both of them and handle it myself. Only way out.

    I’m done with simmons too he bottled it, what a waste of athletic gifts with his size strength and quickness he could beat the smaller guards all the time but scared to drive because he might get fouled and have to shoot free throws

    The entire Philly team played scared. That has to be a coaching problem. Ben Simmons should have been benched also in that game 7. He was a liability on the floor and like a deer in headlights. Again another coaching problem.

Most of the kids today seem to blame everyone else and won't take individual responsibility. Hell, half the guys in the NBA today, don't lift weights. They don't see the need to work on their bodies and we wonder why so many are injured. Simmons has been told most of his life how special he is. He's had plenty of time to work on his jumper since LSU. He just doesn't seem to have that clutch gene. Also, being from Australia, basketball may not be his first love. I don't see him being determined/committed like Duncan, Magic and Dirk. He needs to prove the naysayers wrong and everyone is a naysayer today.

    Bottom line, the Sixers have to trade him. He needs a fresh start and the Sixers definitely need a new start. Embiid threw him under the bus too.
    Philly has been begging him to shoot for three years now and he stays the same every year. If this doesn’t jumpstart his ass nothing will. I know lebRon loves him so maybe we can trade him to the lakers for two of their scrubs like we usually do with trades. It is the same problem every year. When the fans know who to pick in a draft and the actual guys who get paid don’t, that tends to be an issue. I think the Sixers could win the title if they could just master that play throwing the ball to a tired Embid forty feet from the basket and see if their point guard /center can do something while the other four guys stand and watch.

    I remember the times i had to argue with guys telling me that they wouldn’t trade Simmons for Donovan Mitchell straight up.

    He can retire today and he has enough money to live a life time if he doesn't blow it on exotic cars, bling blind diamonds and gold jewelry, mansion, ho's, etc..

    He catching alot of media heat. Philly fans want him gone. That can't feel good as a player.

I can't wait to see him and hear his explanation.

    I can safely assume that is something that you personally don't worry about, with all of the crap that comes out of your mouth constantly. I still have no idea why everyone around here kisses your a$$
