Ben Simmons got whistled for his fifth foul for a moving pick then got hit with technical from the bench. Seconds later he got ejected.
PHOENIX — On a maddening night for the Nets, one scene encapsulated their frustration better than words ever could.
The Nets were down 73-55, and though the clock read 8:47 left in the third quarter, this contest was long over. Ben Simmons exits the court after getting ejected in the third quarter of the Nets’ 117-112 loss to the Suns.“I’m 6-10, 240, and I’m guarding these guys. It is what it is. There’s obviously going to be certain calls you’ve got to make, but … I don’t know.”
“Just trying to take care of my body for a long term,” Irving said. He also had missed the Nets’ win over the Warriors with a similar injury, but said it wasn’t a nagging or reoccurring issue. “Taking care of my body for the long term. That’s all.”“It’s pretty much when an athlete comes to you and say they’re not feeling up to par and you listen to him, whether it was Joe at one point this season, whether it was Ben with the late scratch,” said Vaughn.
