What a line from Ben Simmons after his first game in almost three months:

Ben Simmons:

“As soon as I checked in, I told them, ‘You know what time it is.’”

Don’t tell Ben about the NBA’s offensive explosion while he sat out 38 games.

Kinker and I could average 10/8/11 in today’s NBA:

Welcome back Ben Simmons 👏

I strive to one day have this type of delusional confidence in every thing I do. This is dangerous. You could conquer the world with this type of conviction. Imagine walking into work after missing four months, answer some emails, take four bathroom breaks, go to the break room three times, walk around the floor to talk to co-workers, leave at 3:30, and still get pats on the back by your boss for a great day. Oh and the company is hemorrhaging money and might be delisted from the stock exchange while you’re the highest paid employee. That’s the world Ben Simmons is living in. It’s hard to hate it. We should all aspire to grift like this. Work hard for four years, get paid, and have enough money for generations.
