- Earning his place on the NBA's All Defensive 1st Team, Ben Simmons more than proved his worth to his team as the NBA's Steals leader for the 2019-20 NBA Season.
Becoming the tallest player in league history to finish as the league leader in the stat, Simmons averaged 2.1 steals per game as the 76er's finished with a record of 35-22 in the 57 games he played.
All video, sound, and images belongs the the National Basketball Association (NBA).

Great Barrier theif lol. Only reason why i clicked on this video
His reaction time, foot work and hand to eye coordination is impeccable
The issue with the game today is that because he isn't able to score at such a high rate and is solid in the fundamental department on the defensive end, it doesn't get into highlight reels.
If he is able to get back to this then he once again becomes an asset to any team.
Perception is 80% of it
That’s why he made the NBA defensive first team.
I've been saying he's the best defender in the NBA last year and now he gets his recognition
It is such a shame that he is in the situation he is in.
He needs to improve his support staff and the messaging he is getting. Once that changes, the results should return.
Simmons is too quick for even his own players.
And at his height with length to match it, it makes you wonder why the focus was never beyond just setting he and embiid up with shooters.
that’s an amazing nickname
The nickname "The Great Barrier Thief" garnered this video plenty of view.
When he comes back I believe he should develop his game but solely focus on his defense transitioning into offense this is his strong suit this is his game perfect for him its exciting, dominant, extremely effective and something he can make his own as far as record breaking and he should only pass if necessary and if it makes sense while in transition because alot of the passes were careless and sloppy because he's to fast but he's a really dope player with immense potential that can take over the league over night and can't wait to bare witness to the phenom
The issue I think that had the biggest impact on Simmons is the infatuation that the lead guard on the team must be able to shoot the long ball. Honestly if he can be a Draymond Green with a far more effective offensive game with all the other facets that he presents then there is no reason when healthy that he isn't All-NBA and All-Defensive. Time will tell.
That's a sick nickname. I hope it gets now traction lol
I've since changed it, but honestly it would be the best thing for him. Easy marketing right there lol
The 2020-21 season was kinda shaky but Simmons was still in the 90th percentile of players in terms of steals.
Simmons was one of the three best defenders in the league and easily the best perimeter defender in the game.
@@jay-bshighlightsandmixtapeagreed. It’s such bullshit that he didn’t win DPOY that season because the very next year Marcus Smart gets it over Gobert with the “perimeter defense is so much more valuable in today’s game” narrative. Yet the narrative between Gobert and Simmons was “Rim protection will always be more valuable because it’s the easiest shot in the game”. Either give the award to Gobert back to back or give it to Simmons in 2021.
Great defender, Great passer and a decent rebounder but people only want to talk about his shooting. He's a hall of Famer as is
FACTS! Basketball isn't all about shooting, it's about being a defensive player as well.
Can't say the man is a Hall of Famer as is, but certainly was on that trajectory. It will take a bit to get back to that from here.
He’s definitely got hall of fame talent, just has to put it together for another good 8 or so years. Somebody as well rounded as him who is at like an A- or above on everything except shooting is a generational talent. He’s Paolo Banchero with elite defense and court vision
this is
dead set has to be his nickname lol
The nickname I had for it certainly attracted a lot of views for the video.
it's sad he's not in defensive player of the year conversations.
Honestly the big thing that always seems to hurt him no matter what is the fact that people are still overshadowing his ability on the defensive end because he becomes liable offensively. At his best, there is an easy case that he's the best perimeter defender in the game.
I love that little Houdini trick that Embiid and Karl used at 12:43
"Now you see us..."
12:58 *"Now you don't!"*
Yeah look, I don't think two players with less of an intimidation factor to each other have ever tried to have a rivalry, but this is the world that we live in.
This is almost as long as the missed free throws video from this season would be...
Harsh but probably true. Unfortunately, it is that kind of oversight that has hurt him.
His a beast when healthy
People look too much on the offensive side of the ball to give anyone any credit on the defensive side of the ball when they are constantly making plays and putting in effort. It should be clear by now that he is not going to be a scoring player and that the best thing for him to do is to focus on facilitating and defending. Let him play free from there.
Man what happened to you Ben!
The internal battle with himself has clearly outweighed the battles he has taken part in on the hardwood.
His offense ruins all the highlights 😂
To be fair, it is mainly the lack of a jumper or free-throw conversion that hurts it. A lot of steals leaders that have a defensive-first mindset generate a fair chunk of points in transition one way or another.
Simmons always clamps the Celtics… good to know 😁
i was thinking the same
The one advantage that the Sixers did have in this time was the fact that they had both Simmons and Thybulle on the squad and could rotate them between Tatum and Brown.
🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate it! Keep an eye out throughout this year for more videos.
I steal, I dribble, I turnover...
ssssshh don't expose him like that 😌
Yet his effectiveness and recovery overall this season saw him as a genuine DPOY contender.
Is he poor at blocking in paint???
no he's decent at 0.8 or something. He plays pg so has to stay outside more but he's so big that he easily contest anyone from 1-5
If anybody's poor at blocking in the paint, it's Danny Green
It depends on what you are defining as blocking in the paint. As far as shot blocking for a guy who is on the perimeter all the time, he is passable. But if he was looking to just anchor the paint then he has some work to do.
His passing is so overrated
The thing that I don't get with Simmons is that if he was to just play the Draymond role in running the offense from the high post, setting screens, and focusing on his defense, then he would still be in Philadelphia (IMO).
He's not better than gobert after passing a dunk............
I don't think that Simmons was better than Gobert even before he did that. It has become a massive undoing for him which is unfortunate because he had a case as the best perimeter defender in the game when he was locked-in.
