Halftime and Ben Simmons hasn’t attempted a shot

He’s scared- Barkley

He hasn't attempted a shot in the 4th quarter since Game 3.

Philly needs to move him. He's a good defender and playmaker but a horrible fit with Embiid.

Embiid or not it’s in his head. All the talent in the world but that don’t give you confidence

This just seems like a game the Sixers are scratching and clawing their way through and the only reason they aren’t getting destroyed is because Trae couldn’t hit water from a boat.

if the Hawks get even one mini spurt here, I don’t think the Sixers can counter. Tobias Harris just can’t be your second best scorer/player, especially when your second best player decides not to play at all on offense.

Sixers fans are dumb but they keep cheering for plays that have already ended

Man... Harris has just missed a lot of layups and dunks in this series.

now 2-16. They lose and this continues and he’s gonna be up there in John Starks territory for all-time Game 7 stinkers.

And yet the sixers can’t pull away. Says more about them if you ask me.

Until Simmons gets a jump shot nobody better call him an all star.

most overrated player in the league - by far. If I was a sixer fan all I would be thinking is we could have had harden for this loser.

yeah... neither of these teams are impressive in the least. But I’m happy just watching another tense showdown. The basketball might not be great, but the drama is.

Simmons just gave up a LAYUP for a pass to Theyble for a foul. And then Thyble misses a free throw. WOW.

I mean, that was AWFUL.

Simmons passes on the wide open dunk. He’s in his own head.

Doc is really panicking. He knows he is going to be unemployed tomorrow.

Simmons confidence is already gone. He should not be in the game. That alone should get doc fired.

Wow. I just got out of a meeting and looked at the Philly/ATL game. Two overtime games sevens. Just wow.
