“People make comments saying I’m robbing. No. When I got that contract, I was playing at a super high level. Unfortunately, I had injuries. But for somebody to say that, it’s disrespectful. [But] people can say what they want to say. They’ve got to live with it. At the end of the day it all catches up with you.”

Yeah I gotta live with it and I’m not going to lose any sleep over saying Ben Simmons doesn’t deserve even a portion of his contract
It’s disrespectful to me that he gets paid that much for being a fucking loser. Please call out this comment specifically Ben Simmons
Well by all means, go out and actually play basketball and prove us wrong
Ron Howard voice It never did
From all 16 die hard nets fans I beg you ben simmons, Do not ruin our chance of a top 3 pick by actually playing 60 games this year and leading us to a 38 win season that misses playoffs and leads nowhere in the draft We need Cooper flagg or whatever other top notch player is coming out.
Dude is thief. Definition of thief.
I think it’s disrespectful to get paid 8 figure salaries to sit on the bench and not give a shit at all but that’s just me
Follow up question, Ben: this is the last year of your contract. Are you still experiencing issues that you’re willing to set aside and play through because a pay day might be in line if you do?
Even he was playing, the money hes making is robbery. Dude is a BUM
Is that a threat!?
It’s not disrespectful. The people saying this don’t get their full paychecks when they’re injured. If they’re unable to work at the factory / office / etc., they get disability, which is significantly less than full pay. They spend their hard-earned money to watch the best in the world play, not sit on benches in designer clothing.
Bro it’s your job if I suck at my job everyone would let me know
What’s disrespectful is that man’s attitude and work ethic
Narrator: They did not.
