0:08 Pau Gasol going to the Lakers in mid-season may have been “seamless”, but the Lakers still lost the Finals. A better example would be the Pistons, who had gone to game 7 of the Finals the previous year, trading away one of the all-time great scorers in mid-season– Adrian Dantley– and then winning the Finals in 4. THAT is “seamless”.

+King Maine interpretation ! He’s said simmons needs to learn to shoot twice this season for someone like Kobe im sure even when they win its hard to watch

who cares if you’re shooting 3’s or making Layups… ;
if u can drive & hit layups & floaters every time & nobody can stop you, it’s the SAME amount of points people… 😉
Work on a post up ‘hook shot’ & nobody will be able to stop u from scoring at will… ;
maybe he’s 1 of those cats who needs to switch ‘hands for his main shot…. there were times I’d get hot shooting left handed, even tho’ my strong hand is right… ;
he should try that.

Yo everybody knows how great Ben is. Everybody knows he’s gonna be the best. And in Simmons’ defense he could be a Blake Griffin type guy. Blake couldn’t shoot in L.A. and he could handle and was fast, but he was at the four. However, Ben IS a point guard. And he needs to be able to shoot, despite how great he is. Cause hell,we barely give Gainnis leeway and he’s an MVP caliber guy. At the end of the day Ben Simmons needs to learn to at least make sure guys aren’t standing at the FT line while he’s behind the arc. And NBA legends are legit offering to help anybody. So…get help. Become the face of the league.

Listen to me clearly if i was the 76 ers i would trade ben simmons for lonzo ball and Kyle kuzma. Or for devin booker anyday even a Bradley beal i would trade him for dame or kyrie without blinking

The most important part of their rotation is keeping Amir Johnson’s ass glued onto the bench

Somewhere in a basketball players life he MUST learn to play half court.Which means you need a jump shot!!! Coach Brown start 2 plays a game where Ben has a catch an shoot situation.Let him develop a hand eye coordination to catch and shoot first.Miss or make.Also tell him to bend his knees when shooting free throws.His upper body elbow flare will correct itself through repetition but bend those knees to get a rhythm of the shot swishing the net.Even on his makes, the shot his flat.I think so many telling him about hand and wrist action they neglect the obvious.After that correct his balance when picking up his dribble.

You can always tell the guy that wasn’t a player. He has the biggest mouth with the least experience. Look Ben is a good player who will get better. What he needs to do is get his mid range game together first. That’s there because he has nice first step an good handles. This will build his confidence in his shot. His main problem is his feet. If he can learn to get his feet together so he can take balanced shots. He’s always off balance because he has no confidence in what he is doing. I think he and Tibias have great chemistry. Can be a real dangerous combo

Tj and boban to float the big fella an easy bucket, Embiid and jj for and pick and pop or roll, tobias and jimmy creating together and drawing doubles and fouls, and ben driving to the basket and finding the open shooter like mike scott. Just a few ideas imo
