People should have paid more attention to him at LSU. He was just way better than everyone so his attitude got overlooked. He’s been like this since he’s been in the spotlight.
Exactly they had notes on his personality flaws in high school so his background is documented but it's been ignored cuz of the potential he had until recent years.Dude been egotistical and full of himself basketball is too much of a get rich quick scheme and not enough of a genuine love for him to go above and beyond
Because he has all the physical tools to be lebron-like. But he's missing that thing in his chest that all the great ones have. If he did then he would be at least giannis level right now.
A lot of people said that. Try being Colin Cowherd who said in 2015-2016 “Lebron you’re still great but basketball is okay now because Ben Simmons is coming. Lebron you can keep playing if you want but we are all good you can go now cause Ben is gonna take over”
He might end up being the most disappointing number 1 pick of all time. His ceiling is Lebron, with his floor being Giannis. That’s how much physical potential Ben Simmons has. He’s a 6’10, 230 pound PG that can pass, defend, is fast, athletic, and can guard all positions. It’s not even that he’s a bad shooter, his brain won’t let him shoot. If he could devote himself to the game and get out of his own head, he could be the best player in the league. That’s why it’s sad and frustrating seeing things play out this way. He should be dominating.
NBA players make too much money too early. When you have generational wealth at 23 years old you have to love the game to much to still working hard every single day. Many players just don’t have that love for the game.
you'd go out of business as other league's poach the best basketball talent, its an international game now. Emotional pocket watching and wanting low ball contracts off one dude.
He was soft at LSU. And he's soft now. Not everyone is meant to be a professional. He isn't being a professional. When this contract ends, he needs to dropped and blackballed from the NBA.
At this point, I am convinced that Ben Simmons has somatoform disorder. This is when your mind becomes extremely stressed that you start having symptoms of physical illness. We saw it happen right in front of our eyes. Ben developed a phobia about shooting the basketball during NBA games. This phobia cost his team a real chance at an NBA Finals appearance. The World came down on him, and suddenly, he started having physical illnesses severe enough to prevent him from playing NBA basketball.
The media/league was touting Ben as the Next LBJ (if he learned to shoot) and now look at him. He can’t be the best if he’s not willing to put in the work like the best. LBJ’s play this year alone has shown us that.
If you're legitimately clinically depressed, you lose interest in almost everything. You won't care about money or anything else or even want to get out of bed. A guy who claims that but still is trying to wring all his money out is not to be trusted.
the crazy thing is that Ben literally has a back issue, MRI's has proven that fact, but for some reason the media won't except it, they throw out a lot of rec spec because he doesn't talk to them, and as someone who has and still deals with back issues you never know what's it's gonna be like day to day surgery or not, and they act like they've never seen this before, Steve Nash and Dwight Howard's career's drastically changed once their backs started acting up this is not new.
Yea these people act like he walked into the doctors office and asked for 2 epidurals. Doctors don’t give you that shot unless you need it. He got 2 of them
Go into your office and tell your boss to ignore another coworker’s doctor’s note and see their face. Shut up promoting being uncaring for medical conditions, it’s a ridiculous hill to get exhausted climbing.
SAS spoke nothing but facts, Simmons had years to work on his mental health and get the best treatment . He’s a great player but what is going on with bro gahdam when you gonna be healthy.
Says they should've never been playing together. Ben has had back problems since he's been traded. Has nothing to do with Philly or Embiid. Stop listening to people like SAS being dramatic and emotional for clicks.
Ben Simmons is mentally weak. It’s that simple. If he can overcome that, he can become a passable shooter and more importantly, a great player. But he’s afraid to do anything he doesn’t feel comfortable with. Like missing some shots.

It’s a mental issue … the mind believes everything you feed it
I don’t even know what team Ben Simmons plays for anymore because he never plays.
He got his money. and now he is done
Ben Simmons… all-time great NBA “steals” leader.
No one has stolen more owner money than him. 😅😂
Why we just now uploading this when the championship game was a few days ago??
Forgot All About Dude.
I was like... " oh yea"
He's like who is this dude lol
Guy should come to Serbia, Partizan, like Dante Exum did and get resurrected as a basketball player. NBA is circus and it failed in many projected superstars. League is also mentally destroying young unprepared players. If you are not developed to peak level, better go overseas as soon as possible, because there you have normal chance to practice and grow as a player, also many levels of competition
Not a bad idea or go home to Australia
Ben doesn’t have the mentality to grind from the bottom. He’s way too entitled
At this point Ben Simmons is an afterthought hopefully he can be a pleasant surprise one day
Simmons used mental health as an excuse to not do anything let’s be honest … we’ve seen guys who’s gone through worse and come back and balled out man , Simmons doesn’t convince me
Who has played through a messed up back
