Ben Simmons snubbed again

Playing devil's advocate then, if that truly IS the case, then don't the "SNUBBB!!111!!!" fans have a point? Surely he should be picked on entertainment value alone? Imagine him working with all those other all-stars? Jeez...

I don't subscribe to the "will have opportunities" line. No one can see into the future - if he's deserving this year he should be there, and he's deserving of it this year.

The "he has to earn it" line is just as flimsy.

The commissioner has been naming replacements based on the coaches votes.

It's based on the coach votes. Historically, coaches don't vote for rookies.

Can we all agree its part of the rookie/sophomore World v USA game getting more traction and not due to his stats.

There's clearly not much more he could do, thats indicated by The Process getting a game when he's not played as much and is on the same team w the same record.

Agreed... For every number to justify Walker, there's probably 3 or 4 to justify Ben being selected...

I've said it before, the basketball gods are just gunna keep taking players out until Simmons gets a spot. Divine intervention.

Isaac,

Have to agree - many more opportunities, Too many people are being precious believing that Ben must be in the game no matter what.

Walker: 22.6/3.4/5.8.
Simmons: 16.6/7.8/7.2

Simmons is a rookie and will have many opportunities ahead of him.
