Ben Simmons responded in Game 6 with aggression

After disappointing in Games 4 and 5 against the Toronto Raptors, all eyes were on Ben Simmons in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. With Joel Embiid less than 100% (not that he was on the injury report, but to anyone who watches this team with regularity, it’s obvious something isn’t quite right with Jo), Philly desperately needed Simmons to make an impact on the offensive end. Simmons answered the call, with 21 points on 9 of 13 shooting to go along with 8 rebounds (4 offensive) and 6 assists while avoiding turnovers entirely.
