As a Rockets fan I'm beyond happy to have Reed. Sneakily athletic, has that hustle with no give up which perfectly matches the Rockets identity to a T. And then the shooting...the form is gorgeous. Just goes to show how deep we are the Reed can hardly hit the floor. I hope Amen eventually takes over at PG, after Fred leaves/is traded. That will open up the necessary minutes. But you said it best...he's still a rookie and he has to earn his time and put in his time. Loved the vid, cheers bro!
You are right on about that guide hand. Ant made the switch and it's paying off. His shot is looking super clean as a result and now has basically perfect backspin and arc. No deviations created by the guide hand was such a key for my own shot as well. I was in 10th grade when my coach threatened to bench me, despite being the best player on the team, because my guide hand was in the exact same place. I was at first incredulous and somewhat annoyed because I had just smoked him in a 3 point contest, but alas I quickly got over it as I almost immediately noticed a difference in how consistent arc and backspin was. I'm glad he forced the change as it really paid off. Hopefully the Rockets coaches can do the same with Reed.
@leonardomoore1868 what year did we decide that we give up on players a few months into their rookie years? Outside of superstars rarely do players thrive early 9n. He also was drafted into a team that set at the guard idk hy the rockets took him. I still stand by my point that he will be very successful. Even if hes able to be a career role player thats a succes. Not every can be a star nor do they need to be. Calm down
I’ll never forgive Calipari for wasting Reed’s and Dilly’s time and talent here last year at UK. No other coach would have had them both coming off the bench. Can’t Coach Cal’s ego was the reason UK wasn’t better or made a deep run in tournament. Reed is exactly what you said and legend here to us in Kentucky. Wish he was able to play in our new coach Popes system he would’ve thrived, he runs such a great modern motion offense and it’s so fun to watch. Anyway Reed will be ok he is to good not find more minutes. #BBN💙
You nailed this breakdown 6'3, 42in vert, high level 3pt shooter (52% in college insane) that can also finish in the paint with soft touch or above the rim, extremely quick hands on defense also a very willing defender. Then the genetics both parents Kentucky legends a basketball family he's a dog. His faults are just rookie mistakes more minutes would fix that immediately either they play him or trade him please houston dont waste his youth it's something about this kid I think could be very special.
This is precisely why I was glad Reed went to the Rockets. He doesn't have to play a lot early. Rookies thrown into 30 minutes a game are exposed and judged and often cast out after a year or two. Reed can take time to catch up with the speed of the game. He will be just fine and be a solid 15-20 minutes a game contributor by the end of the season.

Once the rockets get a little more momentum in win column, ime udoka will definitely switch up the rotation.. Reed will be playing big minutes soon enough. Amen Thompson got sent to the g league for a few weeks and got zero minutes for the first 20 games last season. Now he’s the leader of the bench brigade as well as playing the same amount of minutes as Dillon brooks the starting small forward.
Good Breakdown Coach, I see Reed Sheppard as a smaller Austin Reeves type of Player with a better 3 point shot, he can play! just hope his height doesn't affect him too much because he's 6'1 (1/2) 6'2, if he was 6'4-6'5 he'd be a problem right now.
Reed played 20 mins tonight… Fred played 25. Fred had 10 assists and Reed had zero. Hold your horses and your carriages. The #1 pick had 33 points tonight 😮
Thank yo for clearing this up. I am a Kentucky Fan and didn't like Cals coaching method his last 5-7 years. Love Reed and hope he can start seeing time!
Like you say, situation matters. i would like to see a Dalton Knecht scouting report because he is someone who was drafted in a situation where he can play to his strengths and is allowed to make mistakes and develop in the process
here after seeing fred vanvleet just got ruled out for an injury. time for reed to prove himself along with amen and show ime udoka who he truly is. glad i found your channel definitely subbed 🤘🏾🚀
@@dorianclark69 just heard hes been sent back to the g league cant believe it i hope its only to get his rhythm back then bring him back to houston cause no way
Great video!!! My only critique is that you dont think the Rocket's scouting department and Ime haven't seen all these videos you have? You think they haven't done all these same assessments based off the same observations? Udoka's philosophy is literally what you said, "KYP"!! They mapping this out for the long term. Trust he has a plan, lets just hope it works
@@clipcorleone_7thdayfamilia I talked to Udoka this summer. Like with 95% of people on basketball, the answer is No. Job Title doesn’t equate to Job Aptitude.
I’m from eastern Ky myself & some of this was hard to hear about my boy Reed…. @ the same time I hope he see this video and/or fixed this bullshit already
Mac mcClung I need to understand why he is not on an nba team.. he scores at will in the G League his passing this year has gotten a whole lot better this year.
Bro i watched last night's game, Reed played good offensively but what you didn't see is him getting scored on 4 times in a row. He's getting targeted consistently on defense
I can hear the veteran players saying we deserve to be out there cause we’ve paid our dues. And I’m saying you’re just thinking about yourself and not your team because you should want the best people out there on the floor. I’m just saying, could be selfishness.
Minutes are tough to get for the Rockets. They just got too many developing players. Reed might get more minutes if Rockets make a big trade and send away several guys for a star or a guy ahead of him flames out.
It's not good to throw rookies out there. They need to "ride the bench" for a big chuck of the time. Doesn't matter their background, especially undersized players.
Reed Sheppard repping my hometown of Kentucky! And I think his time is coming I expect Houston to make some trades and free up some space for Reed to get some playing time. Good luck Reed and go big blue nation!
Who do yall want me to breakdown next?

That block on the three was crazy wtf
Great video u just eat a new subscriber sir
i didn’t think he was better than Rob until i really saw the summer league and was like hm, what can’t he do on the court? Athletic Steve nash tbh
Like you say, situation matters. i would like to see a Dalton Knecht scouting report because he is someone who was drafted in a situation where he can play to his strengths and is allowed to make mistakes and develop in the process
those lil dribbles had u fooled huh
I really see some Mark Price in his game. He will be our lead guard next season.
here after seeing fred vanvleet just got ruled out for an injury. time for reed to prove himself along with amen and show ime udoka who he truly is. glad i found your channel definitely subbed 🤘🏾🚀
Nice one
Coach pls do a video on cam whitmore and what he needs to improve on
@@dorianclark69 just heard hes been sent back to the g league cant believe it i hope its only to get his rhythm back then bring him back to houston cause no way
Good college player. Reminds me of John Paxson success will be limited as he’s shorter than me at 6’2. Good shooter , with quick hands.
UA-cam isn't notifying the video, I always have to look for it😅
If y'all still didn't know, the plan is for Reed to take FVVs pg chores and next year is FVVs 3rd yr. option his last year.
Nah. Amen is way better for that job. it will be Amen, JG, Tari, Jabari, Sengun for the future, reed will be 6th man
Eli Ellis
I see him running the team at point guard real soon
Nah. Amen is miles better. Itll be Amen, JG, Tari, Jabari, Sengun for the future. Reed can come off the bench as 6th man
