This M'Fer you luv is AFRAID TO SHOOT! IN THE F'N NBA!

lol, jk, kind of, but ya get the point! (defends four positions with aplomb, DURING A SINGLE POSSESSION, pretty f'n close to eleeeeeeet, can count on my 12 fingers the number of pro's with the desire or court awareness to even try, don't make me bring the videotape)

** and i really would rather have Frank at 1.5 + RJ + Quickly + Mitch + Fournier + 4 first round picks + whoever else you throw into the mix to make the inevitable proposed Ben-to-the-Knicks trade package work..

**** the BEN-HEAD is clearly cracked, and once it's cracked ya never can tell where it all ends up, especially once you get Kardashians in the mix! Would not surprise me at all to have some kind of Lamar Odom situation on tap and our 40 Million Dollar Man ends up comatose in a skanky brothel.

40 Million Bucks for a guy who makes Frankie Smokes seem fresh, fly, wild and BOLD. As Don King says, "Only in America!"

really, when you see m'fer's with skillz like those, not get better at all, and start, in fact, to downslide, the next step is generally FURTHER DETERIORATION. History shows again and again how nature points out the folly of men, I'll keep the 40 million bucks, thanks, whichever way it goes!

Giannis Antetokounmpo

Same freakish size/skill proportions.  Gets better every year.  Put his team on his back in the playoffs.  A charismatic LEADER. 

Again, THAT'S who you give $33-40,000,000 to. 

Not to some sulky child who would rather have a Kardashian Sister sit on his face, than perfect a 12-15 foot jumper and work on his FTs. 

PS: Giannis goes to the FT line roughly 600 times a season.  Ben in the nabe of 300, though injuries played a part the past two seasons. 

PPS: Thank God training camp is just around the corner.  My LAST post on this petulant pup.

3-5   W-L series

22-22   W-L games



That is GIANNIS - up til this year - age 19-25 - SEVEN seasons, 1 conference finals


And this year his playoff free throw percentage was actually LOWER than across the other seven combined.


Yes, he is great, of course.  And now, finally a champion.  And with his original team, who did not give up on him when he lost game 7 at home or lose 4 straight after a 2-0 lead.

Simmons is being treated awfully - by an awful coach and a feed-frenzy press.  I think he will survive - but no Giannis story to be had - Doc made sure of it.

Re Ben

I don't blame him for being pissed. He got thrown under the bus by Doc and Embiid.

There's gotta be a whole lotta making up to heal his wounds.

But there is no escaping the inescapable, he disappeared in the play-offs.

Maybe he was under the team bus talking to the team shrink.

Great talent, but he's gotta address his shooting phobia which he turned into a mountain of a problem.

You can't have a guy who makes close to $40MM a year be afraid to shoot. 

And for the next 4 years.

He might be worth trading for and giving up decent value for if it was a 1 year deal, but 4 years at close to $40MM per, can screw-up a team.

I can't see giving player(s) AND the basket of 1s that Philly wanted for a 4-year hi-risk gamble.

He's their problem, and unless he's available at a big discount, I'd let Philly twist in wind with Ben.

Yossi Gozlan: Robinson is currently eligible for an extension worth up to $55.6 million over four years. Since the Knicks exercised his team option for this season, he will become an unrestricted free agent in 2022. This could incentivize them to extend him before the end of the season. A two-year deal that aligns his contract with the rest of the core could make sense.

Re  Ben and the playoff loss

Sure - he played sub par

But if you watch the final games there were plays NOT MADE by others in Sixer unis at key times.

Re  Ben and the playoff loss

This was not sub par.
Sub par was Julius' series against the Hawks.

This was a HISTORIC, ALL-TIME cowardly catastrophe.
The m'fer became the worst free throw shooter in the entire entirety of NBA playoff history.
The m'fer didn't take a 4th quarter shot in 5 of 7 games.

Not one......single....shot.

lol....subpar my fat ass, lol, lol, lol


*** threw Ben under a bus? lmao..they were way too polite, wtf you gonna say about that *ish when asked

Ben's FGA per 100 possessions OR per 36 minutes in these playoffs? Lower than Frank "afraid to shoot" Ntilikina's at any time in his career, rofl...subpar, you wanna call that subpar?

His refusal to even attempt to play basketball cost the Sixers a spot in the ECF, it's that simple.

Teammates failed in key spots

Dont make me pull up the game log

And dont deny Doc's plan was to run things through Joel.  He CASTRATED his PG then destroyed him (or attempted to).  Now Rivers wants to keep his NBA head man job so he is trying to rescue Simmons for the Sixers.

Dude - here's a fucking clue - apologize publicly.
