On Friday evening, the Brooklyn Nets are playing the 76ers in Philadelphia.
During the first half, Ben Simmons missed a layup that got a lot of views on social media (h/t ML Basketball).
Many NBA fans reacted harshly to the blooper from Simmons.
@clay_c0le: “maybe ben simmons was right about not shooting that wide open layup against the hawks”
@SleazyEBurner: “Ben Simmons genuinely just smoked this layup.”
Kyle Neubeck: “The all-time Ben Simmons layup miss just dropped”
Jacob Moreno: “Ben Simmons smoking a layup at the same exact spot he passed up on one years ago is Shakespearean-level poetry.”
@__DeBe___: “Idk if anyone saw that Ben Simmons miss but I’m officially giving up on him man that’s the worst missed layup I’ve ever seen”
@tylerbritton_: “That Ben Simmons layup might’ve been the worst miss I’ve ever seen”
@meechone: “Ben Simmons literally has the lamest layup package of any player in the history of the NBA. Grade school intramural layup lines are all cleaner.”
@CH37H0LMGR3N: “Ben Simmons just missed literally a wide open layup how are these people employed in this league”
