Ben Simmons so far this season is averaging 6 points and 6 rebounds a game lol.
This guy is definitely a bust. Bad attitude, no goal to improve, very sensitive to any criticism. Great trade Nets! He goes along perfectly with Kyrie
I don’t think he really likes basketball. If you look at his Instagram it is just pictures of him walking into the stadium in different outfits. I think he just wanted to be a celebrity and play video games. Except most NBA players work very and if you are not trying to improve you are going to just get worse over time. It appears that is what has happened.
I agree. I don't think he likes it. In that sense, I feel for him. He's talented at it, and is doing it because he's supposed to. But he clearly doesn't work on his game -- he was the same player at the end of his fifth season as he was his one year of college. We've seen how much work Tatum and Brown put in every offseason to keep adding to their games. He doesn't. And now it's year 7, and he's still the same player, but has also taken a year off and has had injuries, and now that innate ability might not be enough.
I wouldn't be surprised if he's on his last contract. He's got his money -- it's time for him to go do what he wants with his life.
