Ben Simmons’ situation against Atlanta, reminds me of Nick Anderson in Game 1 of the 1995 Finals. Missed 4 FTs in the last minute as a 80% FT shooter. Orlando lost in O/T, never recovered and got swept. Nick was the 3rd offensive option for Orlando behind Shaq and Penny. Nick went from a 18-20 ppg guy which is like 23-24 ppg now, based on increased pace and 3s, to a scrub scared to shoot FTs. That moment killed his confidence and destroyed his career.

It just blows my mind that you can play basketball most of your life, high school, college, professionally, and never develop a jump shot…especially when you are bigger and stronger than most players on the court…Ben is a classic example of someone supremely talented, but with no drive or work ethic to get better. He has t changed at all since he was drafted. In fact he’s regressed in areas he use to excel at. And don’t let his assist numbers fool you. Half of them are just him passing up open shots and getting bailed out by teammates who are actually willing to drive to the basket or take a jumper. He is a garbage time player with garbage time stats at best when he is actually healthy. Dude would rather sit at home and play COD, which is fine, but a franchise is paying you millions to work on your game and body and be ready…it’s so frustrating to watch him squander his career. His mistake was leaving Philly. We all see now how Joel Embiid makes players around him better. Without him the 6ers look like a sub .500 team. And without Joel, Simmons looks like a player at the end of his career.

What kills me is that there are so many bad ft shooters in the nba. It’s the most basic shot in basketball. 10 year old kids can make 70% of their free throws. But there are a ton of players in the nba that can’t reach 70%. The league average should be at least 80%.

Ben Simmons is one of the worst players I’ve ever watched and his shoot percentage is the worst thing I’ve seen in his career. He was the most hated player in Philadelphia history, so he refused to play for the 76ers. He is the tallest point guard since Magic Johnson. He is a point guard/power forward who ain’t no LeBron James at all. He could’ve been better than LeBron, but he is not better than him at all. He has potential to play in the NBA, but he is a draft bust

The people closest around him probably failed him the most.. When he just needed someone to keep it real, his insiders would tell him he doesn't need to shoot, he just needs a team around him of shooters. His shooting coach has always been one of his family members, despite his shooting always being his worst attribute, he never changed coaches. When you are told your are perfect your whole life and anyone saying anything different is just a hater, so you are taught to ignore them,,,, then where will the motivation to get better come from? We never saw any genuine self reflection or accountability from him, so to me his issues started and will end with the people around him coddling him and never once telling it like it is... He was a sensational athlete, extremely talented, high IQ on the court, but every basketball player needs to develop, and after his rookie season, the league figured him out, and he didn't do a single thing to counter that... It's honestly a sad story when you talk of potential, and no single one thing explains his failure as an NBA player, but I believe the people around him and Ben for choosing to only listen to them, is why he is where he is now.

And I really think his hard workout and training mentality is for the women and looking good in clothes, not to be a better player. All those years and he didn’t develop a move to help him get to the basket easier, no aggression on scoring in the paint and not even so much as a floater or anything let alone a jump shot .

He somehow got paid. That’s the reality of most pro athletes. They just want to get paid. But at some point a contract should become null and void if you refuse to play. Dude was never seriously hurt and just sat the bench and collected those big checks.

I feel like these "How BAD is ____ Actually?" videos need to focus more on what the title says - how bad were these players? I understand covering some of their backstory, but this video is mostly just a retelling of his entire history, bit by bit. We need more stats, comparisons to others at the position, advanced analytics detailing how they rank in various categories, etc. Not trying to criticize too much, but it'd be nice to know how bad these players ACTUALLY are, if at they're "bad" at all.

He needs to understand that he's wasting his talent. He was talented enough to be picked no.1 overall. Playing in the NBA as a franchise player is any baller's dream let alone being no.1 overall pick and an allstar.

If you look back at Brick Simmons highlights coming out of LSU he rarely shot the ball 90% of his score came from layups/dunks. When he got drafted Tim Legler said he will be good but must work to develop shooting fast forward former 76ers coach Brett Brown moved Brick Simmons from PF to PG due to ball handle skills but was exposed for not being able to shoot, Brett Brown for years had PG like Lou Williams, Jrue Holiday etc and Brick Simmons played the PF position alongside Joel Embid. Brick Simmons downfall was he never developed a shoot and was exposed for the bum he is

Not necessarily. I've met right-handed people what were kicking ball with their left foot. And lefties kicking with their right. I would be classified as right-handed but there are tasks that I handle better with my left hand. Sometimes it just clicks and comes natural. And then you have players like Pat Venditte (switch pitcher, born righ-handed), but he actually trained his off-hand.
