He shoots in practice. He is not bad. Maybe the fans were the mental block?

I genuinely wonder if certain players will shoot better without crowd presence

Like you see guys like Dwight Howard making 90% of free throws in practice & draining 3s like Curry but in games he can't shoot to save his life

I sure hope not. If you're a professional and the fans are a mental block, you've already lost.

Some people thought young Dwight was going to play like KG on offense when he came into the league. I think it's because he got overly jacked. It probably makes it hard to shoot consistently.

I consider Ben Simmons the biggest mental midget ever to wear a uniform..

Possibly.

I think if he is playing off ball at PF it will be more of a contributing factor to the likelihood of him shooting threes.

The physical intensity of the game is way, way more important than any crowd impact.

But that’s just my theory we’ll see.

Simmons starting at power forward alongside Embiid against the Grizzlies, as Brett Brown said.

Start of the 3rd quarter and he is already 1 from 2 from 3....

If the presence of fans is his downfall he should just retire immediately. What a mental midget.
