Stop moving the goal posts to win on the internet jesus DM.
I start off by saying Simmons is soft for responding to random's all the time who criticize him.
You bring up Pop saying he's already elite.
I agree with you that he's elite and attempt to engage with you. Only adding that Simmons is certainly not living up to the hype... He wasn't billed as elite. He was billed as next best player in the league.
Then you go off saying how much he's accomplished. Like I'm saying he's trash.
.Jesus dude
Literally it's like talking to a lakers or raptors fan.
We haven't even seen what he will do in his prime years which won't be for a few more years...
I pointed out his accomplishments because he's on the same pace that many other greats were on their first few years (or even exceeding that). Yet you're talking about how he hasn't lived up to expectations?.was he supposed to be the best player in the league by the age of 23/24? LOL
At this stage he is living up to his hype every bit. Shit, he may even be exceeding it because while he was projected to have great defensive tools we didn't exactly expect him to be this great defensively. Yeah his jumper isn't there but he's as great in every other area of the game and he's the elite passer with elite court vision that he was projected to have.
He doesn't need to "get away from Embiid" lol they're having great success together on the floor. I mean they've had a lot of success in the past together, but this year more than ever before. Sixers just need to continue to build around them as Morey is doing and it's only year 1 with him.
