Ben always been one of those dudes that's more about the lifestyle than improving his game. Can't blame that one on Rich.

Yup, he's been Hollywood since day 1. And I was telling my guys I never expected Ben to stay in Philly his whole career. But I didn't think it would end like this.

I believe in RJ. Keep RJ. Protect RJ.

Lakers really signed like 12 players this year for 2 McChickens and an 06 Corolla

 

[Moheezy]

Listen, man. We’re a few years removed from Aaron Mintz allegedly screwing over the Lakers with PG because he was upset about another client. This **** happens. There are a lot of egos and guys with power involved.

I’m also not going to believe at face value every rumor about a Black agent who skipped the line and quickly became the most powerful agent in the game. There’s a lot of people who are incentivized to bad mouth him in any way possible. Rich seems like a smart businessman by all accounts — this isn’t smart business. So I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt until more info comes out. The FO could be leaking this because they know Maxey would be a part of a Dame deal too.

Hopefully it's not true because it's screwing over another black player for the sake of politics which is never good business. It's the Maxey's of the world that really need their agents looking out for them. Not the Ben Simmons of the world. Max players will get paid regardless. Heck, Embiid negotiated his entire deal himself.

Maxey going to be alright as long as he keeps getting better. A few missed community service events won’t hurt his pockets.

Exactly . Most people in Philly don’t even know who the hell Maxey is.

Well said.

What ?
You crazy

 

[blakep267]

Seeing how Russell Westbrook gets it, those south Philly fans bout to go overboard with Ben

 

[dacomeup]

What ?
You crazy

You’re confusing your level of interest in the team with the broader city. Most people in Philadelphia don’t know who Tyrese Maxey is. That’s hardly a controversial statement.

are you kidding me? Every Sixers fan LOVES Maxey. Thybulle and Maxey are our beloved sons. Ben is the entitled spoiled brat while Fultz was the troubled child that we are happy he is recovering even if it’s with another team.

Cavs going for tallest team in the league

Sixers fans =/= people from Philly. Y’all letting your fandom cloud your reading comprehension. Talking about in the context of community service.

You'd be hard pressed to find a piece of Tyrese Maxey promo that the Sixers have done let's be serious

 

[blakep267]

Why y’all acting like the sixers fans wouldn’t turn on maxey if he continues to get torched by the opposing teams guards

 

[Based Jesus]

Tyrese Maxey is not a household name in any city in the state of Pennsylvania or the greater continental U.S. as a whole

Not true. I asked 100 people who Lebron James was and they were like LeWho? I then asked if they knew Tyrese Maxey and their eyes lit up upon immediate name recognition

Big Tyrese Maxey Thread

 

[ballinsam23]

Lot of negativity surrounding Rich Paul recently. His thought process as an agent is a bit different to say the least.

 

[wavycrocket]

Some NASTY propaganda
