The physicality adjustment has been tough on him. He’s skilled, just so young

Same issues he had last year. Not finishing well with contact. Can't get up and finish under the basket, and free throw shooting has been putrid.

5-15 last game and 1-4 shooting with most shots within 5 feet is bad. He's shrinks under the basket when he doesn't have a running start. Still doesn't know how to use his shoulders to create space.

Still doesn't have a good feel moving in space once the P&R action is neutralized. He's still all motor, effort, and instincts. Need his mental game to develop as well.

I feel pretty confident fears will be a starter in this league. It’s just how good he can get

It all comes down to the jumper. At his size, he has to become a serious threat from 3. That will also open up the whole floor for him because if teams have to close out hard to him then he can use his elite handle to attack the close out. Everything becomes so much tougher for him if he can’t shoot at a high level

Why isn't Brewer dialing up P&R actions with Fears and Shumate. He so damn athletic.

You overestimate our coaching staff. Borrego might be the only coach on our entire staff that the rest of the league respects. I don’t think any other coach on our staff would have an nba job if it weren’t for the Pels

Purposefully running stuff with a guy that may not even be in Birmingham would be dumb.

6 assists with 4+ minutes to go is not ideal

Queen is a really good rebounder. Once he get his conditioning right, I think you see more effort getting back on defense and closing out. His short area coverage were actually competent today. He has to get on their Naz Reid conditioning program.

Trouble with these young guys is they don't understand team ball. Queen slows the game down and won't pass same for Fears. They'll celebrate getting theirs all the while we're losing the game. I give this coaching staff 20 games before someone gets fired. I'm seeing the same junk as the past. Different players but the common denominator is the coaching staff.

Nobody here can tell me how Queen fits on this team. It makes zero sense, Queen defenders please enlighten me on how this guy fits our playstyle. This mofo ain’t running with Murray/poole/murph/zion/herb

Zero assists in a half. Corey Brewer probably needs to stick to player development.

Queen only makes sense with the idea that Zion is gone by next summer as well as a few other guys and you build the team around Herb/trey/fears/ queen

The whole coaching staff just needs to be fired. Worst staff in the league
