Whose fault is that 🙄
Nick: You guys had a lot of success when you were there. How would you describe that relationship now?
Simmons: I don’t think there was really a relationship there. Like in terms of a friendship? You can try as hard as you want to try to be close to somebody, be their friend, whatever it is, but everyone is different as people, so for me, it’s never personal. I don’t have any anger or hate towards him. He is who he is and I am who I am. And we’ve got our personal lives. And work is basketball, so in that moment, my goal is to win and I got to win with Jo. He’s a great player, we just didn’t get it done.

“Jo likes being a dad, I like playing video games, driving sports cars, and drinking wine”
Dude’s such a lil bitch
Not a big deal. I mean, are we supposed to be friends with our bosses and coworkers? It’s nice if that’s the case but it’s not a necessity. All that matters is if they can work together. Ben and Jo couldn’t that’s all.
I don’t mind this. I’d be annoyed if everyone wanted me to be friends with every coworker
Harden clicks with Embiid, Jimmy loved Embiid. I don’t think Joel is the problem here.
