Ben Simmons would be like Giannis except he is scared of failure, whereas Giannis is not. Giannis keeps trying to shoot free throws and threes even though his percentage is below average. Sometimes I feel Ben Simmons is criticized too much but then I remember he got a max contract. I watched your Giannis Antetokounmpo video which was very good and so is this one. Also the one on Jokic. I like your style. ☺️

It’s so amazing to see actual polar opposites of players in the NBA. What I mean is Ben Simmons came into the league with all the hype, all the talent, son of professional basketball player and a great life. Winning rookie of the year his second year and viewed as the next big thing. On the flip side you have a Giannis who came in unknown, passed over, humbling tough upbringing and no talent. Yet he worked and worked his tail off and look where he is now. Ben folds under criticism while Giannis perseveres through it. Great video man, definitely had to sub.

Funny thing is if you can get your ft% that high, you'll usually also develop the shooting touch to do some midrange, close range fadeaways, and close up floaters. Giannis demonstrated it a little bit in the playoffs.

It's over for ben
Ben doesn’t even need to form a three point shot. All he had to do was practice free throws so his fouls wouldn’t be a complete waste and strategy for opponents. Any kid can practice free throws and get pretty damn consistent with them as long as you try and put effort into it. Even I went from throwing the ball behind my head as a kid until I decided to form a proper shooting form and went to my local park every day and practiced proper free throws until I became a pretty damn good shooter now and I’m not getting paid millions of dollar to do so but did it just so I played the game of basketball the proper way which baffles me that a number one pick point guard in Ben Simmons refuses to put in the time to do the same. Shooting is all mentality and Ben Simmons exposed himself so badly this playoff that until he gets a shot I doubt he’ll ever be viewed as an all star player cuz opponents are going to use that against him so much and we saw that with the hack a Ben Simmons this year

It’s also the same reason why catchers and pitchers aren’t great hitters in baseball.

As an Aussie speaking here. Ben missed a huge chance to play for the Boomers this Olympics and get involved with the positive culture of the team led by Patty Mills, Joe Ingles and many. Positive energy is all Ben needs right now, he has achieved so much and just needs a refresh. The talent is there and the best is yet to come in him. Matisse is a proper legend. My big hope is for these fellas to join together, fire up and start producing some of the best in the NBA. Rock it lads and let it rip. Full respect, go smash it!

You have a point, he needed a refresh from new teammates and new environment plus him representing his country might add up some motivation and pride while playing. But a part of me felt that he's too ashamed to face team usa and all after what happened. It's fine if he can't win in the Olympics but the lessons he can pick up on that experience could really help him redeem himself. Such a missed opportunity.

Lol no this is the nba
Have a lot of die hard Philly fans friends and that was one thing they called out early: his position adjustment left him with very odd matchups which were uniquely conducive to rebounds. Notice his triple doubles were rarely eye watering in their dominance with a lot of spot jump shot kick out assists thanks to his bringing the ball up and embiid option. When he’s forced to create from a positional that’s technically not natural to him, it’s no wonder. He built his entire game and confidence on one style. When shit hit the fan, he couldn’t fall back on perimeter play but had to double down as a point guard. Can you imagine how foreign that’s gotta feel
Ben Simmons’ problem is that he has never had to struggle for his success. He’s always been miles above his teammates and opponents and that’s his downfall. Its just like the “gifted” kid in school who was knocking out 10 books a week and didn’t have to study only for college to absolutely destroy them. Any new activity that isn’t immediately mastered gets cast aside because they’re afraid of failure and not being the dominant person they’re used to. Simply put Ben has been spoiled by his own God given talents.

Perception is def different from the reality of things. In that Raps/Sixers series Jimmy Buckets was the only one getting scores because Marc kept up with Embiid and the Raps didn't care much about Simmons' impact. The year after the Sixers weakness for not having a perimeter scorer/shooter showed up again when outside of Embiid playing bully ball inside, it was very predictable to keep up with their offense.
This video aged well
I been telling all my friends…the absolute worst thing to happen to Ben was becoming an all-star without expanding his game. No sense of urgency until now, he can’t “I’m an all-star” his way out of this. Time to face the music.
Great vid! In my opinion the problem is definitely not with his jumpshot itself, but with psychology. Would be useful to add number of Ben's midrange and 3point attempts (and percentage) for each season, during your storytelling.

He doesn't necessarily need a 3 pt. shot now but his mid range (10-15 ft.) and free throws .72% or better are a must now. He can develop a 3 shot later. He has to give the Sixers 20/10 and defense every night. I'm very hopeful and want to see him play better and want him to win.

When I look at the difference between Mitchell and Simmons since their ROTY race, I think a big difference was Donovan being unafraid to be vulnerable. He constantly changes his form, his playstyle and his routines such as before free throws in order to find what works whereas it seems Ben tries one or two things at the start of the year then regresses back to same old Ben. I routed against Ben a lot in the early years, being a Jazz fan. But since his recent fiascos and complete battle with is own city, I've started hoping that he can find some solid ground again. It looks really difficult to be him right now and I think he deserves a fresh start and a chance to quietly build back up without all the bright lights on him.
you do this insanely well dylan
Honestly didn’t think much of this video but your commentary is legit and got me watching the whole thing. The research is on point !

Really good video. I think another point people don't talk about is he chose to play for LSU because the coach was a family friend, and Brett Brown was also close with his Ben's dad when he was the assistant coach of Melbourne Tigers back in the late 80s. These complex long-time relationships would've been a factor in how he was coached in his most pivotal years.

Here's my problem with that: He has rejected opportunities to play for your country three different times since turning pro. Once in 2016, when he wanted to concentrate on preparing for his rookie year, 2019 because of "professional obligations", and finally 2021, where he wanted to work his shoo-absolute horses***. He didn't want to show his face anywhere after the embarrassment in the playoffs that year, but ironically, rejected a route that might have helped people to forget about it.

My guess is that Ben Simmons has an extremely big ego. That's where it all starts. He's a bad shooter and the only way to fix that is to shoot more. Instead, his ego won't allow him to go through that struggle so he's just dug in his heels and refused to work on his garbage J

Wow amazing content and great channel you got my sub
Love that icytwat instrumental in the intro
he's like all the others who showed what they truly are when they get the bag. once he did get paid, he knew he had nothing left to prove and just slacked off.
Phenomenal video, Simmons in the 3 seems like an obvious choice to me as his shooting is just no where near an NBA pg. That might give Philly a poorly formed team but I don't think Simmons is entirely to blame. Putting him on a team with a strong outside. But no doubt he is afraid of making improvements to his offense game

Precisely. The onslaught against him appears to be an attempt to white wash the failure of Sixers as a team & organization & to protect Rivers, Embiid & others. Embiid being always injured seems to be more of a factor in playoffs.

No Simmons need to be a 4. Small forward have to be able to shoot from all three levels, Ben can guard 1-4 on defense
Amazing content. Wow.. u deserved my subscribe
Great video
Damn im not even a Jazz fan but i feel bad for Mitchell when someone mentions Ben Simmons as the rookie of the year😆

At the same time Mitchell's impact on his team is much higher. Especially in recent playoffs where him going nuclear and scoring toe to toe with another playoff scoring volcano in Jamal Murray is what kept his team in.
As a Philly fan I really hope he manages to gain the same confidence he had earlier in his career. If he gets traded (which is almost a sure thing at this point) I hope he goes to a team where he is supported and can play aggressive again!

He's to much of a potential liability. He could just sit and say, you knew about my issues when you signed me. Who needs that. He's a bum.
Quality content. i have no reason not to sub. thanks for the vid!
Great Video! You have a new subscriber here!
Shout out to Markelle Fultz for the following year going #1 despite being on a team that finished bottom of their conference and didn’t even win 5 games. I don’t know why during that period everyone just ignored winning and fell in love with pure stats.
It’s pretty much impossible for me to not sub after watching this
Great video, wow

Ben Simmons is my current favorite player. I really like your content, keep it up. Be Legendary

The problem is people were sold on Wiggins' flashes of brilliance but not believing his ability to consistently bring it out. He's never had that so consistently at best he's a good third player in a winning team. But he's never going to be the number one guy in a winning chip caliber team ever.

@@t4d0W also he’s never been able to shoot consistently which was the case when he went 1, i hate how the narrative w picks like that are always he failed to live up to expectations instead of he should’ve never went 1 in the first place
i see what you did at the end 💀 great analysis!
i know great vids when i see em! Fire!
Hope he can actually get better. I was hyping him up heavy until 2 years ago. The fact that him and KAT both streamed video games and haven't improved like everyone expected really doesn't help me explain my hobby 🤣
He got paid and quit lol very evident

I totally agree with you, but, if I may, there's one thing I wanna add: can we all agree that Doc Rivers is the most overrated coach of all time ? How can you, year after year, blow all of these leads?
