The schedule got easier. It’s not just because of them. Last year the schedule was notoriously frontloaded with the toughest games. When they went on their 16 game win streak it was against mostly garbage teams. Also those guys play no defense. That’s ok against bad teams but their shooting isn’t that valuable when they get torched.
No coincidence the Sixers went on a run when these two joined the team last year.

They still beat Miami in 5. As much of a non shooter as Ben was coming out of college, wouldn't have expected him to completely refuse to improve or develop it. Disrespectful to his teammates to legit take the stance that he did not want to try in the summer to work on it. With all that being said, he's still not the root of the problem nor the only problem

Ben shooting at the slightest fixes a lot of things. Until he does, gonna be the same flawed team

Nah I think he would need more than just a slight improvement to "fix a lot of things", which is due to Fultz not being a shooter either. One of them needs to be a shooter
To blame one more than the other doesn't make any sense. Especially considering Ben was a non shooter and Fultz was a shooter his whole life. Especially since Fultz' strengths right now are exactly what Ben did well last season, except Ben did them even better

I have more faith in Fultz figuring it out sooner tho. Which is said since he forgot how to shoot
The one thing Fultz can do that Simmons can’t is run a legit PnR

Yes, I agree with you you're probably right that Fultz will figure his shot out much sooner than Ben. So why are you then blaming Ben for not shooting and being the root of their flawed team?
