With the absence of Kyrie Irving, due to his ongoing suspension, and the 2016 first-draft pick Ben Simmons due to his disappointing run so far, the team undoubtedly can’t rely on KD alone to get them out of this concerning situation.

Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons need to make a comeback soon

Talking about Ben Simmons who was dropped from the starting line-up and is now coming off the bench under Jacque T. Vaughn,?Charles Barkley seemed perplexed as to why Simmons was coming off the bench. When guys come off the bench, you want them to score. Simmons is strong at one-on-one play, but he couldn’t score points for the team. So far this season, in nine games, Simmons has averaged 5.2 points, 6.2 rebounds 5.9 assists. That’s certainly not what you expect from a number one overall draft pick.

On the other hand, Kyrie Irving has played eight games in the season so far averaging 26.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game. The difference is clear, Kevin Durant needs a backup who will contribute to the scoring end. On the other hand, Shaquille O’Neal feels like Ben Simmons should be more aggressive. There seems to be a talk on the internet that Simmons is scared to shoot. And Shaq gave a piece of advice to Simmons, telling him to be more aggressive and not worry about missing. “Go back to being aggressive,” Shaq added.
