The Nets, which have the Big Three, are out 4-0 in the playoffs against the Celtics, who didn't seem to be a favorite to win the title. Some people have even revisited some of the predictions before the start of the season, in which the Nets are seen as the biggest favorite to win the season, and the Lakers are no. 2. However, one of the two teams was eliminated from the playoffs, and the other did not make it to the playoffs at all.
Having traded Harden for 76ers core guard Ben Simmons, I don't know if this move is a blessing or a curse, but in terms of this season, the Nets are definitely losing. Aside from being younger than James Harden, the guard, who doesn't shoot three-pointers, has no ability to do more than Harden — even Harden, whose scoring ability has deteriorated badly.
In the first round of G4, Durant and Irving both played, and Ben Simmons, who was scheduled to play in G4, announced before the game that he would not play due to old injuries, which really surprised the Nets. As a result, the Nets without Bency are not opponents of the powerful Green Army at all, and although Durant has done his best, it is difficult to stop the Nets from losing. But if G4 Bency can play, the Nets may still have some chances to win.
Bency's "escape from the front" is incredible to many people, but some people also understand Ben Simmons, who is the former Houston Rockets forward who also has psychological problems - Reus White. Some new fans may not be impressed by the player, but the old Rockets fans should be familiar with him. White was a member of the Rockets when Harden led the team, but because of the fear of flying, White did not make a single appearance in the Rockets' rookie season - psychological problems made it difficult for White to adapt to the NBA's high-intensity games and frequent flights.
White didn't make one appearance for the Rockets that year, and only made three appearances in his career, except for the Rockets, White briefly played for the 76ers and Kings, and then left the NBA and never returned. However, when talking about Bency, who is "in pity with himself", White still expressed support and understanding.
White said: "I don't know what happened to Bency, but he obviously had something wrong. He's still young, and I believe he has enough time and ability to be a good NBA All-Star. But he must have such a will in his heart and mind. Now, he doesn't seem to have the will to do that, and I can't say anything because I don't think he is, but I'll say that if it were me, I'd be playing in G4. ”
In fact, Bency last season was very normal and willing to play for the 76ers. But after the playoffs, Bency was verbally criticized by his teammates and fans, and he stopped playing for the 76 team. But unexpectedly, after being transferred to the Nets, Bency's psychological problems have not been overcome, which requires him to be responsible. As netizens said, Royce White really has psychological problems, really dare not take a plane to the away field, but Bency is completely different, his psychological problems are completely self-inflicted.
The more you don't dare to play, the harder it is to get back to the NBA. If this continues, whether Ben Simmons's career can continue will be marked with a big question mark.
