What makes Ben mentally unstable?

Man won’t shoot the ball and is afraid of the free throw line. His basketball mental is unstable

 

[VARNELL HILL]

For Philly, it's a perfect basketball fit, but why would they go from one nut job to the other?
Wouldn't they rather go after someone more mentally stable?
Going from Ben to Qyrie is such a headache.

Sign me up for the headache that’s going to run an unstoppable pick and roll with my franchise player.

The Iverson parallel would be there too. It’s a match made in heaven.

One can say those are fixable problems. And he's only 25. Meanwhile with Kyrie, you never know if he'll take a game or two off just because he feels like it.

 

[WASHED KING]

Don't want to see Kyrie in Philly. He needs a nice red state. How about Orlando? Pair him with Brother Issac.

Match made in right wing heaven.

Jaden McDaniels and Malik Beasley are more "mentally stable" (Malik questionable).

See if that gets the Sixers any further than Kyrie 13 X Allah.

Isn't Pennsylvania just east Texas North outside of Philly and Pittsburg?

I like Ben on the Nets. He will be on the court most of the time with 2 all time shot makers, he doesn't have to shoot outside of 8 feet. Just set some picks, roll, lob threat, offensive board, get back on D, invert the pick and roll and let Benjamin handle. In the 4th maybe you have to offense/defense sub him so he doesn't end up having to shoot fts.

Myrie doesn’t miss playoff games, unless he’s hurt. He’s not going 2-4 in a game 7. He’s not afraid of the moment. I personally don’t care if he sits 20 meaningless regular season games. Embiid going to miss some time too.

Fultz + Ross for Kyrie. Numbers work.

Kyrie is really the face of the NBA Right Wing now

 

[datznasty]

You couldn't do it until Dec 15, but does Kyrie respect MJ?

Oubre, Plumlee, Washington-Renner, - is only like 26M so you need more salary I guess to get within 15% of Kyrie's 35 so maybe take Rozier. You could go straight up for Hayward as well.

What was the rumored proposed Indiana one?

Lol John Wall makes so much you have to add filler salary to Kyrie to make it work. His agent should get a Nobel Peace Prize. I

This is obviously a joke but I’m confused is he supposed to be (eventually) good or is he a meme player? lol
I remember seeing his name posted a lot last year

7’0” guard so some are legitimately intrigued. Doesn’t look like much to me but he’s only 19

Poku has bottom five shot selection in the league.

Unicorn potential.

Supposed to be unicorn potential but I recall an article saying he basically had the worst rookie season of all time or close to it. He’s still very young though.

 

[pums]

unique skill set basically a tall guy who can play in the perimeter comfortably but is just so raw.

Acts like a shooter but cant shoot

I’m gonna be punching air if Ben Simmons ends up on the Raptors

 

[WASHED KING]

Hearing Bron say that would do something crazy to me too.....Y'all think Melo recorded the audio to that phone call?

Wild that people like Travis who have been consistently and objectively wrong on their COVID takes since the pandemic started are totally comfortable continuing to spew idiocy.
