Happy birthday to the gawd

 

[Suckio Andretti]

I was gonna say Ben Simmons is the better player than Russ but I was driving

Mister got me though

 

[Suckio Andretti]

Guys guys! I hate Simmons as much as anybody but he’s a top 3 defender in the league

For his career he averages 16, 8 and 8 (rounded) on top of being an elite defender

I know he’s mentally weak and a fuckboy but let’s stop scoffing at his ability for what he does give you

I mean. You are what you give regardless of what you can do.

I just told you what he gives

I wasn't so much knocking him as I was wondering if most can agree to this

This made my skin itch.

Go see your physician then.

But fam, factor in turning down an open dunk in a critical point of must win playoff game.

Simmons on paper is an elite ass player.

But his weaknesses end up costing you games at critical junctions.

Idk how to rate to Ben.

Wouldn’t most player’s weaknesses cost you games at a critical junction? Like the guy below Ben on that list for example?

I knew you were gonna say that, but not all weaknesses are as bad as eachother imo.

I dont think shooting too many 3s when you are a horrible 3 point shooter is as bad as onlt taking 4 shots in a playoff game and passing up open dunks.

ehh weaknesses are weaknesses I don’t see the point of comparing them when they are both detrimental

Also acting like Ben is going to do exactly that every time though is…unfair

Wait what are we debating here? Lol

 

[AZTG]

Speaking strictly from good or bad bets.

The over on the Knicks, Charlotte, Bucks, Utah and grizz are good bets imo.

The under on the heat, hawks and mavs are good bets

I dont think weaknesses are weaknesses fam. I think the fear of shooting being so bad that you are refusing to go up for an open dunk is worse than almost all other weaknesses.

I dont think we debating, just talking

 

[AZTG]

Lmaaooo. @silverfoxx bout to be mad at mfers having meaningful nuanced basketball conversations and ask why we aint do the same for the Josh Hart contract

Dude had 6 games in one playoff series with less than 4 points in the 4th quarter and 4 of those 6 he had 0

Like yiu said. All weaknesses ain’t created equal.

So you’re saying Ben’s weakness is greater than russ’ weakness?

Okay but I’m asking what is you’re overarching point? That because of this Russ is better or that despite what Ben gives you his weakness cancels it out or something?
