Ben Simmons finally got what he wanted – to get out of Philly, a city that began to hate him with the bottom of their heart. The Australian star has now joined the Brooklyn Nets teaming him up with global superstars in Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving.
Adding Simmons, Drummond to the roster, the Nets definitely become better in terms of the extra defensive depth KD and co. desperately needed. Not to mention, the Nets even gained valuable future assets in the 2 first-round picks the Sixers provided them with.
It is already visible that “Ben 10” is happier in Brooklyn. He seems to be enjoying his practice sessions and is even making an effort to fix his shooting form. Recently, a video of Simmons working on his shooting action with Nets’ player development coach Kyle Korver, went viral on social media.

I don’t know how much $$$ Kyle Korver makes a year with the Nets… but if he can make Ben Simmons a respectable shooter he will be the most underpaid person on the planet

It’ll be more than interesting to see what Ben can bring to the table for the Nets. Without a doubt, Simmons’ debut will be the most highly-anticipated one this season.
