Bell Ringer Pod: It might be time for Sixers to fix things with Ben Simmons

The Bell Ringer Podcast discusses if it is time for the Philadelphia 76ers to fix things with Ben Simmons to get him back on the floor.

The Philadelphia 76ers are off to a 16-15 start to the 2021-22 season ad they have dealt with a lot of adversity that they have been hit with. The Sixers have been dealing with the Ben Simmons saga and it might be time to put it to an end.

“The Bell Ringer” podcast hosted by Sixers Wire editor Ky Carlin welcomes Nick Friar of DraftKings to discuss whether it is time for the Sixers to just mend the fences with Simmons and bring him back. Philadelphia has maintained that they want a top 25 player in return for Simmons, but at this point, the Sixers might have to just swallow their pride and bring him back.

The Sixers are in need of his elite play on both ends and it might be time to just get over all of that and bring him back. Let bygones be bygones and move forward as a unit.

Bell Ringer Pod: Sixers should focus on Tyrese Maxey, not Ben Simmons

The Bell Ringer Podcast returns to discuss why the Philadelphia 76ers should be focused more on Tyrese Maxey rather than Ben Simmons.

The Philadelphia 76ers are at the beginning of a 6-game road trip that will take them to the West coast starting on Tuesday against the Utah Jazz and that means it’s time for another edition of “The Bell Ringer” podcast hosted by Sixers Wire.

Hosted by Sixers Wire editor Ky Carlin, “The Bell Ringer” will tackle one interesting question: should the Sixers cater to Ben Simmons or Tyrese Maxey? The Sixers have long maintained that they want Simmons back out on the floor for the team, but with the way Maxey is playing, why would they? Austin Krell of The Painted Lines joins Ky to discuss this as well as the play of guys like Andre Drummond and Georges Niang and whether Seth Curry can keep up his current efficient shooting at the moment.

The “Bell Ringer Podcast” hosted by Sixers Wire editor Ky Carlin returns on Wednesday to discuss all things Philadelphia 76ers and happenings around the NBA.

The two of them break down how Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid can be most effective against the Wizards and their defense and who the X-Factors are in this series for Philadelphia. Also, how can the Sixers slow down Russell Westbrook and Bradley Beal? All of that and more in Friday’s episode.

Bell Ringer Podcast: What can we take from 3 Sixers vs. Nets games?

The Bell Ringer Podcast returns to discuss what can be learned from the season series between the Philadelphia 76ers and the Brooklyn Nets.

The Bell Ringer Podcast returns on Thursday to discuss everything surrounding the Philadelphia 76ers. Host and site editor Ky Carlin welcomes Draft Kings writer and former Nets Wire editor Nick Friar on with him to discuss what everybody can take from the three matchups with the Brooklyn Nets.

The Sixers were able to knock off the Nets on Wednesday 123-117 thanks to another big night from Joel Embiid, but it seems that there are more questions than answers. The Nets seemed to not bother too much with Ben Simmons on the offensive end as they completely sagged off of him in order to defend Embiid and it makes sense as to why they would do that. How will that affect a potential series in the playoffs?

Other topics discussed include the struggles of Seth Curry, the questions of who defends Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving in the playoffs, as well as the importance of the No. 1 seed to the Sixers, compared to the Nets.

Bell Ringer Podcast: Sixers rookie Isaiah Joe discusses NBA life, hobbies

Philadelphia 76ers rookie Isaiah Joe joins The Bell Ringer Podcast to discuss his rookie season and life in the NBA.

The “Bell Ringer” podcast returns on Wednesday as host Ky Carlin welcomes Philadelphia 76ers rookie Isaiah Joe onto the podcast as the second-round shooter from Arkansas gets set to lead the Delaware Blue Coats into the G League final on Thursday.

Joe was the 49th pick of the 2020 NBA draft, and he has played 20 games for the Sixers this season, averaging 4.3 points and shooting 38.3% from deep over that span. The Sixers then sent him down to the G League just before the All-Star break in order to get the necessary court time to get the development he needs.

He joins the podcast to discuss his draft process as well as his adjustment of moving from Arkansas to Philadelphia along with some of his favorite hobbies and his rookie season as a whole. He also needs help choosing a cheesesteak spot, so Sixers fans will have to help him there with suggestions.
