Half of the problem is the media deeming this dude to be a superstar before he has done anything. I have never understood it

[Centure]

That’s Joel 100% 🤣🤣🤣 He figured out how to say it

[glh]

Philly employee needs to be fired. He singlehandedly lowered Ben’s trade value from 0 to -1.

[izzyizzy]

Ben treats pro ball like I treated working at McDonald’s in high school - “I’m not here to get better, I just need money for the weekend”

[Harlemkat]

Jimmy Butler said it years ago. Ben Simmons doesn’t like to be pushed. He is the reason Jimmy Butler is not a 76er

[abanks]

Didn't need a text from someone to see this. That's why Butler left because Ben is babied and doesn't work. Embid was upset Butler left thats why they're still friends today.

[stevetalon]

Remember when Jimmy Buckets left for Miami, saying that it was either him or Simmons?

Now ya know why.

[exillens]

Every off-season there's footage of Simmons hitting 3s in pickup games and y'all start saying "this the year"

[brotjack]

Clearly Simmons doesnt want to improve his offensive game. He just want to remain as an oversized point guard than can do power plays and penetration but severely lack range.

[hottakes]

Ben Simmons has been the exact same offensive player since his rookie season.

[TriniDB]

If this entire week of Ben Simmons hate doesn’t fuel him to get better this summer then idk what will. I’m rooting for the young brother. Use this as motivation 👑

[arianbegolli]

Stephen A : “I received a text someone very reliable”
Me: “who?”
Stephen A : “trust me bro”

[fackumean]

He's got $170 million contract for 5 years I don't think he really cares at this point.

[khoado]

media built this dude up to now destroy him. He's never been a superstar. His game is literally the same every year he has not improved one bit

[fredwong]

If any of you know Ben from high school AAU and college you would all know that the sources are 100% correct

[SLIGHTMARE]

“I’ve gotten a text from someone very close to the situation in philly”
-a janitor texting Stephen a smith after stopping and watching the practice for 5 minutes

[sqezest]

Stephen A. always conveniently just got a text message 😂😂😂

[jhankcean]

Ben Simmons after game 7:
“I am who I am. It is what it is.”

[TempK]

I like how he clarified "this is not me". Mommas cooking got em! 😂 😂

[Dẹ̀jì]

This is why jimmy dipped. He saw how he’s been babied, this is sad man .
