Congratulations to Ben Simmons on finally doing something literally every other point guard from the age of 12 up can do and even quite a few 7 foot centers can too.

Way to earn that ridiculous contract.

Was just about to post about this....lol

Seriously, if that fucker can hit those at a decent clip...

I mean...even 30%.....

Whose gonna beat them?

I can see him starting if he keeps this up. Maybe not from day 1 but eventually. Look exactly how he did in summer league

Could see them going with a starting lineup of Winslow, Butler, Herro, who cares, and Bam at C

You do realize he was a top 20 player without a jump shot right? A consistent mid range shot and the ability to hit the 3 ball makes him a top 10 player IMO

OKC roster isn't bad if they stick together. Borderline .500 team with this group but that's assuming no trades are made

I never realized Ben Simmons hasn't made a single 3 pointer yet in the regular season or postseason. 0-17 I believe.

Rumor has it they're shopping Adams around. They want a bit too much for him though. He's a good player and all but OKCs desperation is showing.

Nobody wants that CP3 contract however.

But he doesn’t have a consistent mid range shot. In fact he’s pretty bad at those. And he has made exactly one career 3 in a game that doesn’t even count. He also only hits like 55% of his free throws.

He’s not in my top 10. He’s not in my top 20 either.

I hope he does learn to shoot consistently. Philly will be fun to watch if that’s the case. One three in an exhibition game isn’t enough to convince me that he can be worth $170 million though.

Impossible that a guy entering his 3rd season can improve?

Not impossible. If anything everyone should be demanding he improve.

He has put in the work all summer. This will be his best seasonn

and who could blame 'em...?

aging point guard at THAT price...?

LMAO this is ridiculous

 

[trojanfan12]

Bridge to far for me to agree on Davis taking them farther.

But.....

Without the usual hedging on injury history, I'd take Davis over Giannis, but it's close.

One thing is sure and that's AD is a more developed player. So he would have presented more problems for the Raptors than Giannis did.

I don't know if it's enough to get them to the finals though.

Who cares. Boban hit a 3 tonight. The league is screwed. All hail King Boban
