Ben reminds me of the scammer dudes I used to work with at a unionized supermarket in Long Island

Dudes would sprain their ankle and be out like 3 months, full pay

Coming in the store with crutches and a walking cast talking about the doctor's still running test, docs think they might need platelet-rich therapy....but they gonna think about getting it, after they come back from their vaca in the DR

Demar was getting those bs calls in the first half last night lol
The calls this season don’t seem different to me because Zach literally got clubbed every drive every night last year & rarely got the whistle so a little bs in our favor is cool. Zach’s still getting clubbed with no whistle(maybe 3-4 times last night) he’s gonna get a tech in the Knicks game if it keeps up watch.

The lack of calls is def a thing. Harden only shooting like a ft per game. It prob won’t stay like this tho
 
Daryl Morey: Things Moving In Very Positive Direction With Ben Simmons

"Daryl Morey joined the Philadelphia 76ers pregame show on NBC Sports Philadelphia and gave an update on where things stand with Ben Simmons. Morey mentioned Simmons is dealing with both back soreness and personal things off the court. The Sixers President of Basketball Operations said the team takes both issues seriously.

Simmons recently returned to Philadelphia after a lengthy holdout. His initial days back with the team were tumultuous, as Doc Rivers kicked him out of his first full practice with the team. Simmons was suspended for the home opener, and then refused to do an individual workout when the rest of the team had an off day.

Simmons then spoke with his teammates and coaches and explained his not in the right space to fully return. Simmons was open that he's not mentally ready to play basketball at this time. Multiple teammates then came out in support of Simmons over the following days.

In recent days, the 76ers have stopped fining Simmons for sitting out. Morey said the team is working with Simmons, as opposed to the previous acrimonious days. Morey said, "And, you know, he spoke to his teammates, you know, things seem to be moving very much in a positive direction. We’re gonna provide all the resources, get Ben what he needs and get him out there as soon as we can."
