I hate listening to you talk about Ben Simmons.

I'm tired of you repeating like you like.

No one knows that he's an elite defender.

Every damn body knows that.

Okay, we don't need to regurgitate that same comment.

It's a big wait a minute.

It's a big weight being quite well.

I said the greatest shooting, but I said, the greatest shooters since mankind.

That's what I said about Steph Curry.

Okay, that's why I don't know that's worth notice.

And what a lot of people don't think.

The greatest shooters since mankind.

I do.

But here's the deal.

Here's the thing.

Is the greatest shooting the game?

Probably ever.

Here's the deal.

Max Kellerman.

You're the guy that doesn't value the regular season.

Molly.

Correct me if I'm wrong, it's Max.

That doesn't bother holding.

Say, not only do you not value the regular season, you have sat up there and said, Excuse me.

I don't think the M V P should be about the regular season.

The M V P shouldn't be named until the post season is over, so let me get this straight.

You sat up there and said the regular season ain't about much and that the M V P shouldn't be granted until the post season is over.

But you're sitting up here and your anointing them when I got a sweep in the first round to fall back on and Oh, by the way, when you talk about what they were lacking in terms of, they didn't have the right coach, they didn't have the right role players.

I recall the season before last, Jimmy Butler being on that Philadelphia 76 teams, I recall a four bounce before dropping in by Kawai Leonard.

That is what it took to get.

The six is out of the playoffs against Toronto because they were in Game seven of the conference semifinals and about to go to the conference finals.

So when you talk about what they haven't accomplished, you're saying they didn't have enough.

You're implying they didn't have enough that year.

They did, but they didn't get it done because Ben Simmons, excuse me.

You've been watching a lot of basketball has not played like this.

No, he has.

So it's new.

This is something new.

No.

What is it?

What is it new is that Ben Simmons is doing what he's been doing.

He's been an elite defender.

He can't shoot, He wants you, that's it.

He can finish in the basket.

He can run a team.

He can play the point.

But he won't shoot and he's gonna have to give me more than 15 a game.

In order for the Philadelphia 76 is to get out of the Eastern Conference.

In my opinion, that's what I believe.

If Ben, that's fair.

I said, We'll find out in the playoffs.

They can't play the playoffs yet if Ben Simmons could shoot and beat and Simmons would be the best pair in the league period, even without him shooting there in low?

No.

Without it.

Listen, you're the guy I had to teach you this.

Janice is the best player in the world.

I was hoping you'd think, and then four days later, he's number five because I kept telling you, he can't shoot now.

This is a couple of years ago, and I'm telling you again, Ben Simmons.

If he doesn't shoot the ball from the perimeter, it's going to compromise the 70 Sixers, in my opinion, just just a little window into what it means to debate on this show I had to consider.

Do I bring up the fact that some of this is speculation that it backfired with Janice?

Nah, let him bring that up if he wants.

I'm not going to give that one to him, but that is absolutely true.

Some of this is speculation.

I don't know how how it works in the playoffs this year.

But let me tell you what I suspect because of Doc Rivers because of Seth Curry, because of the shooters that Daryl Morey put on this team, that the elite duo are going to look much better in the eyes of the public when the playoffs are over this year than they have in the past.

Molly, I go as far as to say this.

The Sixes are so talented, so exceptionally well coached and Beat is playing like the best player in the world right now.

Him and Harden alright, and Ben Simmons is no joke.

If the Philadelphia 76 is fall shy of the conference finals or lose to anyone other than Brooklyn in the post season, it will be a colossal disappointment.

There is no team.
