  1. Nah he don’t get a pass he don’t got that dawg in him Giannis gotten better every year not afraid to shoot and an alpha Ben just a beta plain and simple

  2. For the sixers and nets fans this IS personal!! This man has wasted our time and passion!!! These national media types do not seem to understand the damage "Ben, I just want the money, Simmons" is doing to fan enthusiasm for the NBA ITSELF! With all the issues of decreasing game quality (ex: load management) is this the sort of parasite an unhealthy NBA can afford?!!

  3. On everything I believe, I wish I had this man's life. All of this money – already – to play a game. But ALL of this money to WATCH a game ….. whew! I can only wish.

  4. OMG! He was such a key part to the team's success. I don't how they'll ever recover without him…………….

  5. Ben's demeanor on the court makes me think there's a method to his madness. Get him somewhere he wants to be and I think he'll be ok. Maybe he doesn't feel like he's being used correctly because it's almost like he's passively pouting. It just seems like he's trying to prove a point by not trying.

  6. Hope he saved his money cos his next contract will have lots of zero's

  7. Its sad that a top pick in the NBA that had so much potential, and doesn't do much to better himself, yet has not really done so, and in the process since his rookie year he has fallen off the map offensive, and still gets paid like a top shelf player getting hundreds of millions and do this to teams. Wasted talent and only to make excuses to teams that he's not himself or injured or whatever, and not produce as a top shelf player. And still get paid like a top shelf player. This seems awfully like Kwame Brown 2.0, a top shelf player, got paid like one and produce like a scrub and didn't care about improving himself at all, just wanted bag and do nothing to get better.
