Ben Simmons’ back is 100% fine.
Here’s the truth: Ben Simmons is afraid of being embarrassed (that he can’t shoot at all).
His camp leaked that he wanted to play for a bad team where he would be the man. He wanted to play in a city that wasn’t as intense as Philadelphia. Instead he wound up with 2 star players in Brooklyn. The Nets are the worst team for Simmons’ “needs”, because they have proven stars that are much better than him, and NY is more-or-less the same as Philadelphia, but at a much larger scale.
Ben is scared to get boo’d by another city and he’s desperately trying to hold off on coming back until his jump shot is at least workable. I won’t be shocked if this “back injury” keeps Simmons out until after the season

He doesn’t even really have to take difficult shots, just defend hard in the paint at least!

Got a strong feeling the nets benching him, now because they know probably be a weak link, look what they did to blake, nets move at highend confident offensive play style if one guy second guessing himself can throw off the entire team.

Actually, it isn’t a law. City Council never voted on the mandates. It all came from an executive order from the previous mayor. The new mayor has already removed some of those requirements, like masking in schools and vaccine cards to go to a restaurant. Hopefully he’ll see that a workplace vaccine requirement makes no more sense than a restaurant vaccine requirement.
