NBA 2018/19 Ben Simmons is ROTY. MEGA THREAD!

So shouldnt be any more hack-a-ben
Ben now up to 15-29 from the line.

Brown kept Ben out there, but stuck him on the wing and nowhere near the action so he could get fouled again.

Youā€™d reckon other teams will employ this now.

Ben had 24 FTA in the 4th quarter.

All he has to do is start hitting them for that to stopā€¦

In other new Lamarcus Aldridge is on a tear

Saw an article labelling Simmons as ā€œa weaknessā€ for the 76ers after the hackenning.

Would be great to be a weakness with 31 and 18.

Article should state who won the game more

Glossed over it a bit didnā€™t it. Even included the fact that he broke the rookie rebound record in brackets.

Fukn Australian media. Gotta tear a guy down. Imagine if Hawthorn infringed deliberately against JoeDan all day because he was a poor set shot and he only ended up with 8 goals?

Hacked in your first year as a rookie

That is some serious respect

Shaq copped it throughout his whole career.
He used to say he never had a problem as long as heā€™s scoring 35 points and grabbing 15 boards.

As bad as Simmons was, his FT% is still better than Lonzo. Heck, Simmons has almost gotten to the free throw line more times in one game than Lonzo has all season.
