Reggie Miller sounds off on Ben Simmons: ‘This dude has ZERO competitive fire’

When the Brooklyn Nets announced that Ben Simmons wouldn’t play in Game 4 as he’d planned, there was a lot to say. His return had been hyped for weeks, and after he woke up with back soreness Sunday, it all amounted to nothing. He wouldn’t be in the game to help the Nets try to come back from a 3-0 series deficit. He wouldn’t be making his Nets debut until likely October, eight months after he was traded.

Social media was brimming with people ready to torch Simmons. One of the most notable reactions was from broadcaster and Hall of Famer Reggie Miller, who didn’t appear to hold back a single one of his thoughts or emotions on the topic.

Cmon MAN!!! Out for Game 4 when it was rumored you were going to make your debut. This dude has ZERO competitive 🔥.. As small a chance as the Nets have to come back in this series, you still have KD and Kyrie, all you need is to win ONE game and take it from there.. #ManUp
