That might be a good observation in year 3 if they all still stink, but this is the norm for rookies. In years past, rookies have put up big numbers on bad teams but they were never good players

This year, every single team is trying to win so rookies aren't getting the minutes or the usage, so the raw numbers aren't as good.

right. this year is normal. last year, with so many rookies surprising with their play and potential ceiling, was abnormal. even then, most of last year's rookies weren't "good" players in the immediate sense

still high on Simmons and excited for him to play w/ Embiid. and i'd take Ingram and Brown over Hield every single time right now. i like what they have shown, even while recognizing they're still a couple of years out from being "good"

i like Bender. he doesn't have the ceiling of the other guys, but he does some nice things. Dunn is a rookie pg- rookie pgs struggle unless they are CP3 and even he had a mediocre 1st year

Nah, of course it will take time. But they've been under performing even by rookie standards imho
