Simons -22 He has might have some potential, but man he is brutal on both ends of the court now.

 

[illmatic99]

take hassan off the floor please

 

[AldoTrapani]

I can’t stand Simons he’s so weak to me

He’s trash. Been like this for months now

 

[Scalma]

At least we should get some Wenyen!

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Problem with Simons is he doesn’t get any penetration. He is visibly weaker than his peers.

 

[twobullz]

Simons misses a shot and 4 blazers watch Hassan go against 3 mavs for the rebound. Crash the damn boards.

 

[rotary111]

I don't think Dallas wants Whiteside anymore.

 

[Scalma]

Problem with Simons is he doesn’t get any penetration. He is visibly weaker than his peers.

He ain’t ready. There are dudes in college with better bodies.

edit: high school

He’s garbage plain and simple

 

[DDolla]

It’s over folks

 

[julius]

I don't know whats more frustrating. The lack of rebounding by the team, or the lack of perspective by many posters.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Glad a lot of folks here are tired of Simons finally.

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Carmelo as bad as he is defensively looks like he tries... that’s all I’m asking for... effort

 

[illmatic99]

START COACHING YOU IDIOT

Do you fucking job and start benching lazy ass defenders.

 

[James lamphear]

If the starters going have no energy you mind as well play the young guys.

 

[DDolla]

Rest Dame now

 

[GhostOfPGA]

He ain’t ready. There are dudes in college with better bodies.

edit: high school

He needs to eat and lift weights with a strong man this summer.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

This is some of the worst defense I’ve ever seen

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Glad a lot of folks here are tired of Simons finally.

It’s not necessarily his fault, he’s playing earlier than he should. It’s more on Olshey for not having any contingency plans.

 

[DDolla]

Don’t hold on him Neil, get us some players for Simons

 

[wizenheimer]

I’m not saying get rid of Dame, I’m saying we need another guy like that WITH Dame:

I've been saying that for three years, but Blazer management settled on CJ as option 1b

 

[TBpup]

Perhaps Mrs. @THE HCP can help with some gentle training.

 

[BlazerRx]

He needs to eat and lift weights with a strong man this summer.

He is still really young and to his credit definitely put on some muscle since last year.

 

[B-Roy]

Get someone that actually understands defense. Whether it be a coach, player, fucking analyst I don't give a shit. This team has NO idea how to play defense.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Wow Doncic is fucking sick. Give me this type of player one day. This is the type of legendary player that you need to win in this league

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Perhaps Mrs. @THE HCP can help with some gentle training.

 

[A$AP Meyers]

At what point does Neil finally swallow his pride and blow it up

this is one of the more embarrassing blazer games I’ve seen in a long long while

 

[OneSport3]

Glad a lot of folks here are tired of Simons finally.

He’s 20 years old and this is his first full season playing meaningful minutes. Everyone knew he was a raw talent that needs time to develop.

What did you expect from him???

 

[Cugel]

call it what you want but this team is awful. the whole organization is bush league from soup to nuts. an embarrassing effort. again stotts should be axed if not oshley as well. garbage garage organization.
