While Ben Simmons’ halfcourt offense remains a significant concern, he continues to be elite as a defender and rebounder.
10 boards tonight and a number of high-level defensive possessions.
His contributions in those areas are standing out with Claxton sidelined. – 10:25 PM

Ben Simmons did not want to go to the line. Was weird to see him still in for this last possession. Bulls almost stole one when he tipped it out. pic.twitter.com/dWA5I9aHr1 – 10:16 PM

Have absolutely no clue why Ben Simmons slapped that ball instead of grabbing it.
Near disaster for the Nets, but they escape with a win. – 10:15 PM

Ben Simmons finally takes it to the rim in transition, but again: fading.
Sarah Kustok nails it with the analysis. Can’t fade from the basket at 6’10”, 240 against Coby White.
The aggressive takes finishing toward the rim haven’t been there enough for Simmons through 5 games. pic.twitter.com/u3N65jKgvD – 9:25 PM

Dennis Smith Jr. and Day’Ron Sharpe are a rough halfcourt offensive duo.
DSJ looks much better when Nets are running with Ben Simmons. – 8:37 PM

Erik Slater: Ben Simmons when asked if he knows how the in-season tournament works: “Nah, all I know is whoever we play we gotta play and each game is very important. So that’s how I feel about every game we play.” -via Twitter @erikslater_ / November 4, 2023
Ben Simmons and the Brooklyn Nets will kick off the tournament Friday in Chicago. While the league is attempting to build intrigue around the regular season using the event, the three-time All-Star kept it real when asked about his feelings on the tournament. “At the end of the day, the championship is our goal,” Simmons said. “It would be nice to win the tournament, but at the end of the day, the major goal is to win the championship.” -via Clutch Points / November 4, 2023
