I think I’m back in on trading the **** for whatever they can get. Problem is they can't let him rot now because his agent found a way around it where he gets paid.

As long as we are winning, let him rot and hold him for as long as it takes to get good return. It gets the POS off my team. And let’s the rest of the team actually focus 100% on basketball instead of being constantly asked about Benjamina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he gets paid but if they wanted to they could just sit him and never allow him to actually play. Good luck with that next contract after four years of not playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't stop talking about Ben 🙄 Get your emotions out of it man! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are never going to get a good return, the longer he sits the more teams don't know what they are getting from him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways it's unrealistic to think they would let an asset sit that long pissing away their cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesnt want to be treated for a mental illness, then he shouldnt have the benefit of getting paid while missing games for a mental illness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again i think he’s a dope and so are the people guiding him through this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipples Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Serious question: If a player is injured, say with an ankle injury, and he refuses treatment that would let him get back on the court, can the team fine him or withhold pay? If so, how is this Ben thing any different? He’s claiming a mental health "Illness” and refusing treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipples Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Back to actually talking about basketball, though, big game tonight. Win over a hot Bulls team would be a nice statement that this team can get the job done without the mental midget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee the Sixers are documenting exactly this....we offered Ben this, we tried to send him here, we brought in this specialist....etc..etc...then they will say Ben refused treatment and fine his ass again or again send him away for conduct detrimental to the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walton already has them in playoff mode, playing only 8 games this early in the season. What a crap coach. Fox still can't shoot and looks like Haliburton has taken a step back so far. They have four guards that can play, but don't work well together unlike the Bulls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either he really seeks help like the others have (and legit diagnosis) or he will be exposed as a fraud using mental health as an excuse to get paid and still get his way. It'll piss off millenials and GenZ. You don't want to piss them off because they'll bury you online. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
