Sixers: Brett Brown was never a problem

To say the least, this man needs to go. Ben Simmons scored eight points on four shots in the Sixers‘ Game 5 collapse. He didn’t touch the ball down the stretch, and missed 10 of his 14 free-throw attempts.

Then there’s Tobias Harris. 180 million dollars for 2-of-11 shooting and four points. Listen, bad nights happen to the best of em, but there is one problem: Tobias Harris isn’t part of that group. The only person he’s better than is Ben Simmons, who doubled Tobias in points on Wednesday night. Harris was irrelevant the entirety of the game. When the Hawks started to creep back, he didn’t try to take over one time. He simply sat and watched the Sixers collapse with the rest of us.

Seth Curry and Joel Embiid were the only two Sixers to make a field goal in the second half. Boy do we miss Danny Green. One of the few NBA talents we have on this joke of a roster. Shake Milton, Tyrese Maxey, and George Hill look like lost dogs. Dwight Howard — eight minutes, zero points. Furkan Korkmaz starts, but Doc finishes the game with Matisse Thybulle. Basically, a dumpster fire. That’s all this is. For you Ben riders, open your eyes or stop watching the sport. He is downright embarrassing, pathetic, and a mockery to the game.

The Sixers used Brett Brown as a scapegoat, and now the same problems are bearing ugly fruit in 2021.

Brett Brown was the “problem”. Blowing big leads in the playoffs and getting bounced in the second round. When, in reality, fake superstars Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris, along with the Sixers’ bench production, were always the problem. Brett Brown did nothing in this city none of us wouldn’t have done. He developed players into NBA talent. He made Jimmy Butler and Joel Embiid the closers since they are real NBA talent. Doc Rivers is dealing with the same broken records. Embiid not being 100 percent, Ben having zero offensive game. Harris getting paid an arm and a leg when all of us could score more than he did with one arm. Mike Scott still on the roster playing center when Embiid is out. It’s all pathetic. Blow it up.

Joel Hans Embiid, I am sorry.

You are the greatest center — player — we will ever have the pleasure of rooting for. Dropping 40 night in and night out on one leg. I’m sorry we couldn’t surround you with talent.

Demand a trade if you ever want to win.

Process that.
