...and yeah, as much grief as you all gave me for pretty much predicting this, I do kinda get to gloat a little bit.

Haha. What have you predicted?

I don't think anyone respects what you have to say.

You are way more emotionally invested in Ben Simmons than anyone that actually likes him.

It's effing hilarious and incredibly pathetic to watch.

You do you boo.

Well you're wrong.
I enjoy his insight, his highlight clips and his enthusiasm.
Would rather read his posts than your arrogant hypocrisy or repetitiveness 100 times out of 100. Can't believe you didn't somehow slip Tim Duncan into this post...

I will if you will...

Notice how many people have disagreed with you in quick succession? Nah, that would require taking your head out of your A....ustralia...

Thing is, you often have decent input. But most of the time you're just such a jerk about things/in your delivery. Daeve is a valuable member but because you disagree you have to lash out at him, so soft.

oh just the play he's now most known for in his career...

I've been repeating myself every year with the same scouting report that is accurate, whether you simmons stans like it or not. check the last paragraph

Unlike you, who clearly has a lot of time on their hands to break down a player that they don't even like, I am not reading your novel.

I would suggest you join Ben Simmons in seeing a shrink. Seriously it's like the movie fatal attraction.

Did you get pumped and dumped by Simmons by chance?

Anywhere other than the Raptors!

tjforce · 08-04-2021, 10:59 AM

Anyways... enough bickering....

Were back to the most important part of the year:

Ben posting himself hitting jumpers in the gym on Instagram!

cool, so no effort on your part aside from personal attacks. Proof is in the pudding. I nailed simmons to a T, and you're just talking out of your ass with bias - tried to give you a shot but guess I'll stick to debating people on my level.

I’ll own it. I was wrong about Ben. We can debate about how wrong it was or wasn’t in hindsight but he’s obviously not what I thought he would be

You were pretty wrong about him. But you didn't come from a bad place in doing that.

What's hilarious is that everyone else was wrong the other way. Saying he'd be a bust.

Tall Rondo
Beasley
Odom

I said it'd be a great success if he became a 1 time All Star and he's surpassed that easily.

Elite defender, rebounder and passer.

I do hope he can get better with his shot. How people forget that better players have crapped down their leg in bigger series than Ben did.

I think we'll always see a WBrook level of hatred from the plebs that have probably never put a ball in a hoop at any reasonable level before.

Your level! Debating!

Only debating you do is with yourself and starts with "mas"

I don't waste my time with people that have pitchforks out for a guy.

I'm not even a huge Simmons fan. I just think it's pathetic to watch people like yourself live in threads like this.

I’m sure you have me blocked because you can’t carry on a conversation without name calling and getting hostile, but this post must be a joke. I’d say at least 30% of your posts on here are hoping LeBron stubs his toe. So saying you don’t waste your time with people “that have pitchforks out for a guy” has to be one of the most ironic things I’ve ever seen typed on here.

Also he's "not even a huge Simmons fan" yet he erupts to defend him and praise his defence any time he can....

Join me as one of the 'plebs' he's too immature to take anything from. Funny that in two separate threads someone has tried discussing something with him and he's gone with "I'm not reading that". What a child.

Archangel1775 · 08-05-2021, 02:42 AM

Jeez, to think I put this guy on my All-Time NBA team....he still has the potential to be on the bench as the 10th man though.

Don't blame him for that... the whole organization threw him under the bus (right or wrong).

He needs a fresh start. The 76ers need a fresh start.

Yeah I have no idea why that's an issue.

Apparently it hurts a certain poster A LOT though.

Philly have treated him like garbage, starting with 16 turnovers in 2 games Embiid.

Doc is a pleb.

I think Simmons should force a trade at this point. See how they go without him. In the Playoffs they were a 1st round exit. During the season they played .500 ball.

I'm not sure what he actually wants, but I think he's happy to be out of Philly. Any up tempo team that loves a 3 should want him.

Current odds:
Portland: +150
Toronto: +250
Golden State: +300

Warriors moving up the list. I've been saying it for a year now, this would be a great match. Ben's biggest weakness is having to have the ball in his hands at the end of game. Guess what? If he's with with Warriors he won't need to touch the ball in crunch time unless its a rebound or he's inbounding the ball.
