Once again, Ben Simmons falls just short of a triple-double. In case he hasn’t realized it yet, I’m going to tell him: this is the NBA. This isn’t LSU anymore, there’s no one to hold your hand and tell you when you need to start grabbing more rebounds. When you realize that you have over 10 assists, that’s when you need to get your butt in gear and start stealing rebounds from your teammates. You can’t just let them happen naturally. You can’t just hope they fall into your hands. You think Oscar Robertson let other people rebound when he needed a triple-double? Of course not! He was in there stealing all the boards he could get, and that’s what made him great. If Ben Simmons wants to be great, he needs to stop being a PUSSY and GRAB those BOARDS by the TITS!
Okay?
