Get well Ben. We need you. That’s all that matters. Next man up.

I donât know who is more irritated, Bens nerve or Nets fans?
Historical-Mud-1218
Have to take that at face value but I admit the doubts are there.
Ben has a redemption plan to uphold.
thefineart
Oh Ben, you almost had us.
Venez21
iâm sure his agent getting out in front of the team diagnosis and trying to downplay the severity is a great signâŠ
longPAAS
We have to do this for a whole another season? Really?
xjoke4
It is concerning how little Ben played before having to deal with another nerve related injury. Seems like he canât handle playing big minutes anymore
Kingtripz
Nerve issues are no joke, I had a pinched nerve in my back and it was nearly 2 years until it was mostly recovered, I say mostly because you can still get flare ups at anytime from any sort of movement.
PorZingUsForGiveUs
Maybe he should play every other game

Whereâs the guy who blocked me and called me a hater for being realistic ab Ben Simmons and not acting like this wasnât happening. Just a âhip injuryâ right? Totally nothing more. I mean how patient do we have to beâŠbefore we realize itâs Joever. Love, hate, Indifferent to BenâŠletâs just be realistic.
JurgenFlippers
I really like Ben but his body is just declining sadly. Still can be a good player for us but clearly not worth being any sort of future piece. Sad sad.
ArgentoVeta
I thought he had an abductor injury
Thatâs like 10x worse
FajitaTits
I don’t understand why this dude can’t get his body right. Is there another example in NBA history of someone so beset by injuries that they are repeatedly rehabbing from multiple diagnoses? I mean, fuck, we did not win that trade if this guy is never on the court. Marks should buy him out by the ASG and open up a roster spot at the very least if this is how it is.

Another season same story. Get him off the roster Sean.
ughwhateverman
Not great given his importance with creating fast break opportunities, rebounding, and defense
Hope he gets better soon but the nerve issues he continues to face is not great
BushidoBrowneII
Welp…there it is
cosbysweaterz
Just a sunk cost of the Harden trade
Traw33
Is this something that is definitely diagnosed or is it something that can’t be measured? IE what is the possibility that this is a psychosomatic injury or he’s just faking and they have to say something? Everytime he gets injured it’s always something vague that can’t be proven or disproven, some random soft tissue/ back/ nerve problem that you just have to trust him with. Simmons has no trust or goodwill to fallback on is the problem.

That man is made of glass
Winter-Relief-9496
Where’s the jackass that told me I was an idiot for knowing this was coming, smh. I don’t have any ill will towards Ben but we just can’t rely on him at all
JohnFish2734
This guy is done and sadly that means the team won’t be able to trade his expiring contract. Unless it’s for truly crap player.
Brooklyn917
Screw James Harden for forcing this broken player onto us đ
Electronic-Doctor110
How is he this injured at 26 years old. Youâd think he was 34
Snoo-1474
Welp that sucks
hushed-shush
Have to feel bad now. The games he has been playing actually seemed like he was moving well and not as stiff as last season. It’s probably best that the training staff is limiting him. One wrong move or one wrong blow to the back while trying to push through nerve pain might make things more complicated.

Ben will play again. Itâs mid November.
