See, the difference is that I can see why some people don't want him. I understand it. Hell, in some ways I agree with it, but I also see some reasons why we should take the chance. I have explained those reasons. If you have made up your mind, so be it, but at least recognize some of the reasons that people have for wanting him as being valid.

I don't need to. I simply don't care. You must need validation...

Don't come to me for that...

You can't possibly believe that CJ's coaches didn't want him to work on his defense...

Yes. Yes I do believe this.

Stotts did not coach D and again, CJ has always been a willing defender. So... Again with your false equivalences?

Weird debate tactic...

You do care or you wouldn't need to inject your opinion about Simmons literally everywhere that talks about him.

No, actually I don't care about what the Bensexuals think about his D. It is of no consequence to me.

I was never a fan of Stotts, but come on man...... You don't think Stotts coached ANY defense?

CJ is one of the laziest defenders on the team. Right up there with Melo. He was one of the worst offenders of giving up corner threes.

This is obvious to basically everyone but the CJ-Sexuals who don't want him traded for an All-NBA talent. I guess the Bensexuals are bi-coastal where as the CJ sexuals are just an Uber drive away...

I don't think Illmatic is condescending at all. He's one of the more mellow posters on here.

I haven't seen Illmatic condescend to anyone, other than those willfully not attempting to understand his points which are usually quite clear, even if I don't agree. My only beef with anyone has been an unwillingness to explain their "WHY" in a short summation despite innumerable comments that could fill a section of the Library of Congress. Once I understood the general points, all of which are boilerplate for the Ben haters, I had no more interest in engaging because I knew those points and disagree. I find you to be reasonable in your posts and even when you get heated it's clear what you mean. There's only one real troll around here who is just trying to stir shit, and no it's not Dviss he's just passionate about his position and I respect him I just was frustrated with his refusal to explain his position.

Now that I know it, and they are as I thought all points I've heard a million times and disagree with, I'm over it. The only time I see Ilmatic sound condescending is when he's explained himself ad nauseum and people continue to misrepresent or willfully fail to see his point. It's a common trait among sports fans. As they say, opinions are like assholes, we all got one and all sports fans kinda are one. :D

im not gonna rehash shit but not everyone is the same. Some people get the bulb turned on through a flick of the switch. Others need to change the bulb. Not everyone thinks alike. Ive just been in situations where it felt if i didn't understand or agree, im inferior. All good. Like i said. If i had a real issue id put him on ignore but i like many of his posts.

Yeah, I feel ya. I don't find most posters on here condescending, giant dicks sure, but not smug assholes. Well, with one exception.

This might be the contrast though from years of purgatory on LittleBitchEdge. There smug assholes are a dime a dozen. And its a bakers dozen too.

I JUST SAID I've watched him play since he was a Senior in HS. He has NEVER been able to shoot. He never even TAKES shots...

He does NOT shoot because he's afraid of the consequences. He's afraid to drive and be fouled because of the consequences.

All this came to a head in the PLAYOFF SERIES WHERE HE AVERAGED LESS THAN 10 PTS...

They lost to the fucking Hawks... Why does that not matter to y'all?? STOP acting like this doesn't matter! It does.

If CJ averaged 9 pts in a playoff series, y'all would hate him even more and be calling for his head.

Not if CJ were the best defender in the league.

Yes he doesn’t shoot jump shots but he can still score at a high level which is why people are interested at all.

If you go to the right there is a video of Fox sports Philadelphia bagging on Simmons and comparing him to a dumpster in a flood that smashes into a bridge. Thanks fox just helping bring Ben to Portland for CJ.
