For responding positively to the criticism levied at him by Shaq and Barkley.

The guy has always cared and clearly now gets it. He got another active fan today.

True superstars react to criticism by busting their asses harder. Simmons should take his lead.

Brett Brown's seat became scorching. Again.

Yeah Brand is going to can him after this season if they don't make it to the NBA Finals. I'm a huge Embiid guy but he hasn't been dominating much this season. A year ago he would have taken that matchup with Jokic much more personally. There has been something off about him this. Year. Their criticism was spot on.
