re: Pels Talk Draft Thread 2025

Fears is 18 years old. He should have just graduated high school. The guy crushed it and was by far the best player as a freshmen in the SEC for Oklahoma. Excellent ball handler first and foremost, and a real gamer. Grew an inch and 15 pounds in last year. Like Lillard going 6th(after multiple years of college), I think very early Fears will be the guy you look back and wonder how he went so low.

I think you all got a great pick. Keep in mind he only played one season at OU but even bigger is he had reclassed from 25 to 24.
Technically he would have just graduated HS last month. He has so much upside and will grow and learn. Good character person too.
If your team has some patience he’ll grow into a core team player. He is so young and can learn to overcome his shortcomings.
I think if this thread is revisited in 3 years you’ll all be happy you drafted him.

We just became an even softer team.

Pels Talk Draft Thread 2025by MacintoshFears reminds me of Nembhard. I don’t think that’s a ceiling but I feel comfortable he can at least be that caliber of player
I don’t think they’re similar at all lol
Nembhard wins with strength and smarts, Fears is explosive as hell

Isn’t he like 6’4 with shoes?

Lewis is not like Fears at all. Kira has 1 speed, no clue how to attack angles, change speeds, or control tempo. He is very bad in traffic and after contact. Doesnt have an in between game and doesn't know how to set up defenders especially in the paint.
Fears can do a lot more even though he needs refinement.

Yeah Fears needs weight more than height. He’s 6’4 in shoes. Not bad. But he needs to add a ton of weight.

You want some arrogance in your PG. He’s confident of his ability but needs to be in the gym this summer shooting the 3.

Agreed. Best case scenario for us. I think a good big man will slip down to us like last year.

Does the NBA still do the stupid thing where the wrong team drafts the player after a trade is agreed to?

I’m sure we’re making calls trying to move up for Queen

Yeah that's what I'm still wondering..

It takes all the fun out of the draft. Like our Hawnits had Kobe. We HAD him.

Not everyone has to be curry, lets just put shooters around him.

Another guy who can’t shoot from 3 for Toronto

Not about being Curry. Just the modern NBA. Need to be a threat from outside in this league these days
Posted on 6/25/25 at 8:13 pm to Macintosh
Is it confirmed we are keeping him?
I know the NBA draft is weird with trades and when they are announced.
