Eddie Intervention Needed

Simons for his career shoots:

FG%: 56%

FT%: 59.7%

3pt%: 14.7%

I think his FT shooting has been worse in the playoffs. But there's no way anything can touch his 3pt %.

I don't like him because he is Ben Simmons

He wasn't a rookie...

Yes, but he didn’t decide he was eligible right?

gwill

He lobbied for it, just like he did DPOY this year. That was and is annoying.

He's not a likeable player.

But there are several players that are not likable. So is the attention to this

I don't think many people care about the ROY thing anymore. He's more than

I don't like those other unlikeable players either. So...

Yeah, but would anyone care that much if he didn’t win ROY or say he should be

Pretty sure I would still dislike him.

Eddie

Pretty sure Philly fans are the only ones who like him. He’s incredibly arrogant

Duke Silver

Started with that, but found he’s just an unlikeable dude in general

Springirl

He made dumb comments about DM and Rudy, plus he is so smug for dude that can't make a 7ft shot to save his life.

Is it just that some people can't learn to shoot? or he isn't trying? I've always wondered about born shooters vs

There are naturally talented guys and those who can learn. If you are playing

Who knows... I'd assume not everybody can become a Steph Curry regardless of the hours you put in, but people should get

Was the dumb comment about Rudy that he thought he should be DPOY?

gwill

I don't remember the exact quote, but yes I believe that is correct.

He's a self-centered, arrogant jerk. He constantly gives new reasons to hate him

He's just incredibly irritating. He's that kid in high school we all knew who

I get that but there are lots of players like that...it’s the NBA

gwill

6/16/21 4:31pm

He's more like that than other players. That's all there is to it.

yerromnitsuj

He's a very unlikeable person

The Jazz aren't my #1 team and I think Simmons is an annoying yewt. Should have never won ROTY over Spider

Has he made a 3 pointer yet?

BYUBandfan

So - is Simmons more likely to hit a 3, or make 3 "the old fashioned way"?

Eddie

6/16/21 8:05pm

Sounds like the fans are going nuts if he makes a FT, so pretty low, I imagine.
