It was 60% Ben, 30% Harris (who had 4 points on a $180,000,000 contract), and 10% everyone else (0% Embiid or Curry).
For people that don't watch the Sixers, you might think that Ben Simmons is good. Let me inform you: he is not. He's a point guard that doesn't distribute the ball and refuses to shoot. He's shooting 31% from the free throw line. 31%! The Hawks were deliberately fouling him down 20 in the first half because he refuses to practice shooting in the off season. This is not hyperbole; I am a better shooter than Ben Simmons.
Why do the Sixers collapse late in games? Because they have a PG that can't touch the ball in the half court offense because he can't shoot and can't pass. Every possession he stands at the baseline in the dunker position while Curry and Embiid work the pick and role. And Ben refuses to work on the most fundamental skills he needs to have to be good at his profession. It's professional malpractice that he can't shoot after 4 years as a pro player; he swears every year he's going to get better at shooting and he's actually gotten worse.
The Sixers need to trade Ben in the offseason. Take whatever you can get. Send him and whatever you need to package him with to get Dame Lilliard. But you're never getting out of the second round with a PG that's so offensively anemic that he can't be permitted to touch the ball in the 4th quarter.
