Jim Gardner Posterizes Ben Simmons
Published:
Ben Simmons is no longer a Sixer, but here’s Jim Gardner telling him not to let the door hit him on the way out:
“The man who refused to make a layup and then refused to play a season is now a Brooklyn Net. And one of the NBA’s best shooters … EVER … is now a Philadelphia 76er.”

“The man who refused to make a layup, and then refused to play a season, is now a Brooklyn Net.”
Jim Gardner is retiring at the end of the year and completely out of fucks to give. He ran out several months ago, and started dunking on random Twitter followers. He’s more opinionated now, and we like this side of Jim Gardner. Perhaps he’s got sports analyst written in his future.
If you’re keeping track, Ben Simmons has now been posterized by Jim Gardner and Glenn Schwartz, so the rule is that he now has to retire. When Hurricane throws one down on your head, your career is over. There’s no recovering from this:
