Nah, there shouldn't be any slack for Doc Rivers. Literally the first year he leaves the Clippers they actually make it to their first ever WCF in franchise history is insane. Also, isn't this the same head coach that has worked with so many talented players and only has 1 ring to show for it? He still owns tons of blame.

Blame Doc all you want, he ain't going anywhere. He has contract for 5 years. If he is the blame, blame the organization for signing him for such a big and long contract. At least with Simmons, you can do something about it.

Ben has no confidence and almost looks like he has no passion for basketball, literally no drive to get better/improve. Look at Lonzo who has changed his jumper and made huge improvements since his rookie season, Or Tatum and the muscle he’s put on since his rookie season. Very disappointing that there is no effort given, there’s very short strides where he looks amazing, but it’s not consistent at all. This same guy was compared to LeBron Fucking James.
I still remember in a presser before his rookie season when he got his season ending injury that he didn't need to improve or change his game to be good in the NBA. Chickens come home to roost and so do dumb comments like that
Maybe because he probably never liked basketball and wanted to do something else but people kept convincing him to play basketball because of his height

Those shots of Simmons just literally standing there and making less than zero effort to box out or hit the boards are really shocking. The clip of him playing video games like a child are pretty rough too. What an embarrassment. But at least he can flex his wealth on Instagram.
This man is 6' 10, knows he has no jump shot, but he don't try to grab a board for a easy put back in a playoff game. Like who is stopping him down there? Dude has no motivation at all and just wants to be paid.

Attacking the rim with defenders all over doesn't always mean the ball will find the bottom of the basket. If you can't shoot free throws, then your possessions are meaningless, because you don't score 100% of the time at attacking the rim or shooting free throws.
Ngl I was impressed with Ben Simmons in his first two years in the league. But now, I hate Simmons for continuously regressing in his game; yes, he hit 3 or 4 threes, but he went back to his old self who is a scaredy-cat in terms of shooting. Simmons is clearly hurting his team’s full potential because of his lack of jump shot and 3-pt shooting. He can’t even make a free throw to save his life! IMO, Simmons does not belong in this league where offense is more dominant than defense. Simmons can play superstar all he wants, but if he doesn’t develop his game with a jump shot or 3-pt shot, he will NEVER become a champion, and possibly his career will end quickly because teams don’t want a point guard who can’t shoot threes, and does not want to develop at all.
@@TobiTobiTobi1Exactly. If you look at a player like Patrick Beverly, who is a competent 3pt shooter by league averages, what makes him as effective as he is despite only being 6'1 is that he shoots 80% from the line. He willingly takes contact against much larger defenders when he drives to the basket because of that. Ben could easily be scoring 16-18ppg if he had the aggression to drive to the basket and the competence to knock down his FTs.
@@jsb1585 I don't even give a shit about his freethrows. Miss em. But attack. Try to score, force the defense to react to you. They can't keep fouling you because they will always be in the penalty which is beneficial for your team in general. JUS ATAK!&!

He never should have been a PG!! I've said it since he got in the league, he's been overrated! He needs to move to SF/PF where he could be a Draymond Green type of player.
He's 6'10 and weighs around 240 but he doesn't play with force as this video has shown. John Collins is slightly smaller but he plays with so much force it made Simmons look like a big marshmallow.
@@soleil3gs 1. You’re acting like both of them are Simmons level shooters, when Lamelo is solid and Simmons would be playing center to minimize that issue. 2. In this scenario obviously Simmons wouldn’t handle the ball as much, that’s how players adjust when they play with each other. He would be more of a secondary ball handler and playmaker when it’s applicable
I legit said during the summer of 2018 that the Sixers should have traded Ben Simmons for Kemba Walker (before his knees started falling apart). Nowadays, dear God look at how times have changed.
nicely done man, agreed completely on all points about ben.... also, one huge aspect many seem to be forgetting or overlooking concerning potential defensive loss in trading ben simmons, one of the best ways to play defense in the postseason, where the game slows and moves to a more half court set, is by playing a high level of offense, because it wears the other team's shooters down due to them having to play defense, they cant just lamp and kick it on the defensive end like galinari and trae young did when they were assigned to ben simmons... essentially they only had. to play half a basketball game because ben simmons refuses to play a. whole game on both sides of the court himself.... so by adding someone who can create for themselves, like d'lo... and yes, i absolutely would trade ben for d'lo, no question at all...i wanted them to do so last season, d'lo is almost a perfect fit for the type of pg to play with embiid. imagine d'lo on pick and rolls or pick and pops with embiid, or even dribble handoffs like he and jj used to run so successfully.... anyway, whoever is guarding d'lo from the other team is going to be much more worn out when they get down on the offensive side of tings, so his lack of defense compared to ben really doesnt look that bad when taken in the overall context of the game....anyway by making whoever is guarding russell actually have to play defense, they wont be as effective at the other end of the court... trae young and galinari will be more tired than they were just kicking it doing nothing when assigned to ben. so, even tho russel is a step down defensively, its more a wash overall than one would think when looked at in proper context.
Normally in basketball just about any opinion is up for debate....only occasionally do we ever see everyone have the same opinion about one particular player/event.. For this we must appreciate this mans existence..for doing what some consider impossible.. Getting basketball fans to unanimously agree on some shit
Sixers fan here… what a rough way to end a season we all had such high hopes for. A path to a title was laid out for us and we squandered the opportunity. Something must be done with Ben Simmons. If he’s not 1000% committed to improving his game the way embiid did this past season, he’s gotta go. Take picks if u can’t get a star.
I’m sorry but if you know that you have a glaring weak point (that teams will always exploit) then you have to work on it. I don’t wanna see Ben practicing floaters, he has to be practicing them free throws. He don’t want it
I havent watch basketball since the early 90s when I was in elementary school. I used to collect all the Topps basketball cards. But no matter where I go, I can't get away ANYWHERE, the fact I always hear Ben Simmons is just BAAAAAD
Your point about the 4th quarter lack of effort is a great point, and tbh, he’d be playable in the 4th IF HE COULD ONLY HIT FREE THROWS. They want him for his defense on the court in the 4th, but it’s pointless if you’re only gonna have a 4 on 5 on offense vs his defense, he’s literally unplayable at that point. And it doesn’t matter if he’s 2 feet from the basket or 20 feet from the basket, it doesn’t matter, his defender won’t care and will drop off of him, he clogs the lane regardless of where he’s at.
I think a lot of ben simmons problems is mental. The is 6'10 and weighs 240lbs but passed up a wide open dunk because he was afraid to get fouled. I think it's fixable if the right people help him out.
Om a huge Sixers fan since the days of Dr. J! Can o get an AMEN! You hit it right on the head, you're exactly right. Ben Simmon initials say everything about his contract extension, it's BS. You said everything I have been thinking. Great analysis.
Well I'm a sixers fan and I agree with everything you just said, cuz me & few others Philly fans has been saying this for the last 5 years now, so yeah it sucks but I'm not too surprised cuz here in Philly it really doesn't matter if you how good the team is are they'll find a way to screw things up, which is why I always keep my expectations very low.
I have to give some props to you. I bashed Ben Simmons myself in a video of my own but I forgot to address how he's a statue without the ball. But how he didn't even try to get the rebound, that's such a modern NBA thing. I really hate it about the modern NBA that no one even fights for rebounds anymore. This is not just Ben Simmons. I just wish this could change about the NBA in general. It's a problem that Ben Simmons is just part of when it comes to the modern NBA.
@@shumishu6019 ball has slightly improved sure. But they’re essentially the same player; tall pass first guards who are all nba level defenders. If you make lonzo taller and take away Lonzos shooting ability they are the same player.

@@stratosphere2323 he left because of Brett Brown
Just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos man.
Trae Young seeing that video of Ben trashing Atlanta … : “& i took that personal”
LOWkey I felt his demeanor & anger throughout the video cause it’s exactly how I felt after they lost ☠️🤦🏾♂️
Maybe Simmons is still tanking ..🤷🏾♂️.... maybe he dont know the tank is over🤔
your best video yet my guy
Another amazing video
Simmons is a glorified scrub. No cap 🧢
Sixers couldve traded Simmons for kawhi in 2019 too
Legend went OFF on this one 😂
Love the content bro 👊🏿
I respect you for this
I'm so glad the entire internet is straight bullying Ben Simmons lmao
He never should have been a PG!! I've said it since he got in the league, he's been overrated! He needs to move to SF/PF where he could be a Draymond Green type of player.
Nah f that just don’t play him
He's 6'10 and weighs around 240 but he doesn't play with force as this video has shown. John Collins is slightly smaller but he plays with so much force it made Simmons look like a big marshmallow.
He not that either he literally a Point Center
Thank you L.O.W I’m a Sixers fan and thank u for opening the other sixers fans eyes that don’t see a problem in our team
Great video bro 👍
Doc bring his choking Pandemic disease by transforming Embiid and Simmon to become next Pandemic duo, Kovid Simmon and pandemic Embiid.
Bendemic Simmons* Joel Coviid*
sinus simmons and epidemic embiid
@@SuperMaine850 That was good
@@angeldeleon7121 thank you kindly, sir.
@@SuperMaine850 👍👍
As a Sixers fan, this shatters my heart, but then again, failing in perfect situations is kind of our thing. Plz trade Ben
I see you with the edits. Boy been workin in that dungeon 👀👀
low is absolutely fed up. and i’m here for it
Never forget that at the beginning of the year, they signed him to a Max Contact when everyone thought that he should be traded.
Once again L.O.W Hit the nail right on the head beautiful absolutely beautiful 100% correct
as a die hard sixers fan…i completely agree with everything you said. well done my friend
As someone that doenst know much about NBA is always interesting to watch all the drama unfold
sixers fan here. nahh this is on ben. sixers are forced to play 4 on 5 basketball every time they play offense
It’s not all on Ben, Doc and Tobias needa do better in their fields.
@@mosescuriel6497 Tobias showed up last 3 games Ben didn’t
It's on Doc, too. He has no strategy and his rotations suck.
His playoff record (aside from 08) speaks for itself.
I'm mad you think us sixers fans would defend Ben Simmons in this situation 😡
Low back at it again with a banger
Well said man.
I honestly wanna see Simmons in Charlotte playing Center alongside Lamelo, I feel like that could be amazing
That’s a terrible idea. They’re both ball handlers and both of them aren’t the best shooters. Terrible pairing
Ben Simmons isn’t aggressive enough to play center
@@soleil3gs 1. You’re acting like both of them are Simmons level shooters, when Lamelo is solid and Simmons would be playing center to minimize that issue. 2. In this scenario obviously Simmons wouldn’t handle the ball as much, that’s how players adjust when they play with each other. He would be more of a secondary ball handler and playmaker when it’s applicable
I legit said during the summer of 2018 that the Sixers should have traded Ben Simmons for Kemba Walker (before his knees started falling apart). Nowadays, dear God look at how times have changed.
@@nbabackcourtmedia Simmons is too scared in the paint small forward is his place and that’s all
Doc rivers should be banned from coaching, he really ruined many talented players career
That’s interesting
Like who?
Sizers fan here what you just said is absolutely correct and many sixes fans be saying this for a while now
nicely done man, agreed completely on all points about ben....
also, one huge aspect many seem to be forgetting or overlooking concerning potential defensive loss in trading ben simmons, one of the best ways to play defense in the postseason, where the game slows and moves to a more half court set, is by playing a high level of offense, because it wears the other team's shooters down due to them having to play defense, they cant just lamp and kick it on the defensive end like galinari and trae young did when they were assigned to ben simmons... essentially they only had. to play half a basketball game because ben simmons refuses to play a. whole game on both sides of the court himself.... so by adding someone who can create for themselves, like d'lo... and yes, i absolutely would trade ben for d'lo, no question at all...i wanted them to do so last season, d'lo is almost a perfect fit for the type of pg to play with embiid. imagine d'lo on pick and rolls or pick and pops with embiid, or even dribble handoffs like he and jj used to run so successfully.... anyway, whoever is guarding d'lo from the other team is going to be much more worn out when they get down on the offensive side of tings, so his lack of defense compared to ben really doesnt look that bad when taken in the overall context of the game....anyway by making whoever is guarding russell actually have to play defense, they wont be as effective at the other end of the court... trae young and galinari will be more tired than they were just kicking it doing nothing when assigned to ben. so, even tho russel is a step down defensively, its more a wash overall than one would think when looked at in proper context.
Was I the only one waiting for this one ⚡🔥
This just makes me appreciate seeing my Raptors win in 2019 so much more.
Look at Boston and Philadelphia as reasons why you should take the allstar/superstar player.
Normally in basketball just about any opinion is up for debate....only occasionally do we ever see everyone have the same opinion about one particular player/event..
For this we must appreciate this mans existence..for doing what some consider impossible..
Getting basketball fans to unanimously agree on some shit
You went off LOW and I loved every minute of it! Your speaking the truth and Ben needs to go. Point blank period.
Daryl Morrey he's great at building teams that collapse 🤣🤣🤣
I was waiting on this vid since low announced it on p2p 😂
The only mistake you made in this video was expecting Philly fans to defend him lol. Excellent video as always.
Sixers fan here… what a rough way to end a season we all had such high hopes for. A path to a title was laid out for us and we squandered the opportunity. Something must be done with Ben Simmons. If he’s not 1000% committed to improving his game the way embiid did this past season, he’s gotta go. Take picks if u can’t get a star.
I’m sorry but if you know that you have a glaring weak point (that teams will always exploit) then you have to work on it. I don’t wanna see Ben practicing floaters, he has to be practicing them free throws. He don’t want it
The footage of Simmons standing still in the 4th is eye-opening
I havent watch basketball since the early 90s when I was in elementary school. I used to collect all the Topps basketball cards.
But no matter where I go, I can't get away ANYWHERE, the fact I always hear Ben Simmons is just BAAAAAD
I started yelling at my phone the second you brought up dame you got me fucked up
Stop talking about the next Lebron like that 🤣🤣
Yoooo I almost forgot about doc saying that about Ben Simmons he tried to embarrassed the reporter well guess the joke is on you 🤣
Loool doc is the most overrated coach in nba history
Spot on as always! Nice video. To think they could of had harden! Hahaha
Your point about the 4th quarter lack of effort is a great point, and tbh, he’d be playable in the 4th IF HE COULD ONLY HIT FREE THROWS. They want him for his defense on the court in the 4th, but it’s pointless if you’re only gonna have a 4 on 5 on offense vs his defense, he’s literally unplayable at that point. And it doesn’t matter if he’s 2 feet from the basket or 20 feet from the basket, it doesn’t matter, his defender won’t care and will drop off of him, he clogs the lane regardless of where he’s at.
As an Australian. I'm glad he isn't going to stink up our national team at the olympics with his no shooting backside.
A lot of players now don’t want it like they wanted it back in the day
I think a lot of ben simmons problems is mental. The is 6'10 and weighs 240lbs but passed up a wide open dunk because he was afraid to get fouled. I think it's fixable if the right people help him out.
Om a huge Sixers fan since the days of Dr. J! Can o get an AMEN! You hit it right on the head, you're exactly right. Ben Simmon initials say everything about his contract extension, it's BS. You said everything I have been thinking. Great analysis.
He just takes up space inside which Embid would benefit from
If you wanna know what Philly fans really think watch any Philly sports podcast channel on CZcams, they've been flaming Simmons like crazy
Well I'm a sixers fan and I agree with everything you just said, cuz me & few others Philly fans has been saying this for the last 5 years now, so yeah it sucks but I'm not too surprised cuz here in Philly it really doesn't matter if you how good the team is are they'll find a way to screw things up, which is why I always keep my expectations very low.
I have to give some props to you. I bashed Ben Simmons myself in a video of my own but I forgot to address how he's a statue without the ball. But how he didn't even try to get the rebound, that's such a modern NBA thing. I really hate it about the modern NBA that no one even fights for rebounds anymore. This is not just Ben Simmons. I just wish this could change about the NBA in general. It's a problem that Ben Simmons is just part of when it comes to the modern NBA.
Whoever said Simmons > Tatum in the past needs to be put on death penalty for horrible takes
Well in the past Simmons WAS better than Tatum. Hindsight is an amazing thing
Ben Simmons is just a 6’10 Lonzo Ball.
That’s a insult to Lonzo
At least Lonzo improves a little bit every year…
ye bruh lonzo can shoot tho
Yea this is disrespectful to Lonzo. At least he’s improving (albeit a little bit, yet Improving)
@@shumishu6019 ball has slightly improved sure. But they’re essentially the same player; tall pass first guards who are all nba level defenders. If you make lonzo taller and take away Lonzos shooting ability they are the same player.
@1:30 Simmons truly has a “pass first” mentality. 😂 😆
LOW knows what he’s talking about 💯
