It’s amazing how soft mentally this team became once Danny green got hurt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost died on the Ben Simmons hill, but his play and mentality offensively is so egregious I can't defend him anymore. I'm not trying to go conspiracy here, but I really think there is something that motivates him about just being an "all-star." He elevates his play every season offensively for about 2 weeks before all-star votes come in, gets in, and then he completely shuts down in the playoffs.

You want a big time conspiracy theory my uncle thinks he wants out of Philly and is willing to keep playing the way he does so he forces their hand to trade him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He elevates his play for a little bit to sneak in to the game. And then immediately drops off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEW Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Well, Maxey finally getting minutes and helped stop the bleeding. Why is it I can sit on my couch drunk as crap and clearly see that Maxey should play but Doc will let a 25 point lead evaporate and refuse to play him? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxey being their best or second best bench piece kind of tells you everything you need to know about their bench. (I mean that simply cause he’s a rookie and usually title contenders have veteran benches better than what the sixers have) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hputenis Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 If this game is close, I'm interested to see Tobias in the 4th quarter. He didn't even move last game. He stood in a corner and hid from being seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
