Ive enjoyed watching the sixers recently but expecting ben to start shooting well at this point seems like a longshot. This will be his 5th year right? I know guys like jkidd have turned that part of their games around but this dude is nowhere close. I get why they had to give him the max but if they dont figure out how to use him correctly he will never be a factor late in big games. Right now i dont see anything better than a poor mans draymond which makes for a fine starter i guess but how far can they go with him as #2?
nah this is just going to be his third year...think he missed his first year and played the last 2...
