I wanna blame Doc

But I can’t

This falls on Ben Simmons, not just tonight but a lot of this series

Doc needs to trade his arse this off season

But tonight was on Simmons

They tried to trade him for harden. They tried to trade for Lowry too. They knew they had to upgrade there. It takes two teams to make a deal.

Prime Ben Simmons isn’t a thing

Dude hasn’t improved at all since coming into the league

Seems like it’d be more realistic at the deadline next year given his value right now.

It ain't like he's gonna come out next season knocking down perimeter shots to up his value. The book is out on him now. Not to mention the risk of running it back for half a season with the stank of this egg laying hanging over them.

And that was idiotic IMO, if Houston wanted him, then give him to them. You're getting Harden in return, a much better player than a Simmons who could take you to the next level with an Embiid. Just a royal screwup on the part of Philly's front office.

HOU turned down the deal, not Philly. Tillman didn’t want to give harden to morey after morey had just quit and gone to PHI.

I like Doc Rivers….. always has been a standup kinda guy to me…. But man he can blow it when it matters most…. BUT I don’t blame him for the loss to the Hawks…. That’s ALL on Ben Simmons……..

As I've said earlier, Rivers can only coach'em up, it's up to them to go out on the court and play, execute and take care of business. A HC can't do it all for them.
