NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal made headlines last week for comments on Inside the NBA that were critical of 76ers All-Star Ben Simmons.
“I stay on big guys because I care about them. I want them to play a certain way; I want them to play at a certain level,” O'Neal said. The difference between [Joel Embiid] and his soft partner [Simmons] is [Embiid] can take criticism without being a crybaby, and he still wants to play,” O'Neal said.
O'Neal went on to add that he “didn't respect” Simmons.
