2704320, The Every 3 Ben Simmons Hits Post Posted by bshelly, Wed Oct-09-19 05:06 AM
We have entered a brave new world, so let’s have some fun. This post will commemorate every 3 pointer Ben Simmons ever makes.
Hopefully, he will hit so many that this needs to be a group project. If you beat me to it, please feel free to post the date, number of 3s hit, and the opponent in a reply to this post.
More likely, there will be 2 replies per season, and you will make fun of me.

Dude is a beast in the paint so why bother. Yet, there are times when you want to shout at the TV - "SHOOT!!!!".

dude is super cocky but he doesn't have the guts to take a 12 foot jumper.
|
2707508, Me too Posted by Vector, Wed Nov-20-19 09:37 AM
There was a good Ringer podcast the other day and dude was talking about how Giannis was the same but worked on his 3s and now he's knocking them down.
Simmons needs to see a sports therapist.
|
2707540, Same Posted by bshelly, Wed Nov-20-19 03:10 PM
I’m starting to ask myself about realistic trade proposals. Could we get McCollum for him? Maybe even Shai? Would I do those?
To me he’s a long way from untouchable at this point.

2707556, Noooo, myyyy brothaaaa (c)80's record commercial... Posted by Dstl1, Wed Nov-20-19 07:15 PM
just gone head and take Shai off that wish list. No thanks.

2708886, LOL: Celtics nickname rookie "Ben Simmons" Posted by Castro, Tue Dec-10-19 10:13 PM
https://sports.yahoo.com/jaylen-brown-celtics-nicknamed-grant-233552237.html
Celtics rookie Grant Williams on 3-pointers in his first 20 games: 0-for-25.
0-for-25!
Nobody else has ever started a season that cold.
Of everyone else to attempt at least 25 3-pointers in their first 20 games, nobody made fewer than two. Of everyone else to miss all their 3-pointers in their first 20 games, nobody attempted more than 17.
Finally, Williams made a 3-pointer in Boston’s win over the Cavaliers yesterday.
Celtics forward Jaylen Brown, via NBC Sports Boston:
We were calling him Ben Simmons for the longest. But he knocked one down, and knocked them down, too. So, shoutout to both of those guys.
Yes, 76ers guard Ben Simmons barely shoots, let alone makes, 3-pointers. But it seems as if Brown realized mid-answer he shouldn’t provide bulletin-board material to a rival.
Too late.
Simmons has gotten called a coward numerous times by people in Boston due to his refusal to shoot 3s. Becoming the butt of the joke with fellow NBA players? That’s something else entirely.
We’ll see how Simmons responds, but many around him – including Philadelphia coach Brett Brown – have been urging him to hoist more 3s. It’s hard to see this inspiring Simmons to actually change his game.
