Ben Simmons' return to Philadelphia for the first time since being sent to the Nets before the trade deadline has become a hot topic of discussion among fans, of course, Ben Simmons, who is plagued by a back injury, will not play in this game, but he will reportedly sit on the bench to cheer on the Nets teammates, and this is naturally an opportunity for 76ers fans to "face the line" of the former 76ers player.
Considering ben Simmons leaving the 76ers in an unpleasant way, it also made the feud between him and the 76ers fans a big reason for the soaring tickets for this game.
According to CBS Sports, even the cheapest tickets to the 76ers' home game against the Nets have exceeded $100, and there are no seats for the "mountain ticket":
"The current situation is that the cheapest ticket is $125, and it's a stand-up ticket, and if you have enough money, the sideline seats can be bought on StubHub for more than $10,000."
Even if Ben Simmons is not yet able to play for the Nets, it is estimated that 76ers fans will not suppress hostility, not to mention that Simmons has been on social media with 76ers fans before this game.
Barstool Philly, a local fan, said on social media that "I can't wait for Ben Simmons to arrive", and Simmons himself responded in the post:
"Me too," Simmons responded.
From this point of view, Ben Simmons is expected to receive treatment similar to leBron James's return to the Cavaliers in 2010 and Vince Carter's return to the Raptors in 2006.
