      The gap is not massive, what this tells you is how stupid the Rockets coaching staff is for not giving him proper time. This moderator is an idiot who doesn't know any basketball for saying he is not a point guard.

      @@guillermobarzana3648 The Rockets are top three in the west and two years ago were a total disaster, this coaching staff is amazing. Sheppard will get his chance, he's only 20 there are vets ahead of him.
      And, yeah, deep bench NBA guys can go drop 50 balls in the G, the difference between the levels of the two leagues is hilariously big. Sorry.

      @CM-ft9ep The difference is opportunity. Sheppard is not going to score that much every time he is not that kind of player that is one game. He took 33 shots and 19 3's.

      While I agree there is a gap, you can't expect much from Reed playing 5 minutes here and there. You need consistent time to build confidence. Nobody expects Rockets to bench FV for Reed. So, playing at the G-league will help Reed's confidence level.

  • @jasonlindamood

    Sheppard's problem (according to Ime Udoka) is that he's so deferential to his teammates that he ceases to have that aggressiveness that other players (i.e. Cam Whitmore) naturally have. Reed is an extremely self-aware player who knows the pecking order of the team and wants to play "the right way", even to his own detriment. That was leading to sporadic minutes behind a group that includes Van Fleet, Jalen Green, Amen Thompson, and Dillon Brooks (when they move him to shooting guard at times...). He's supposed to have two more games this week before being called back up to Houston on Sunday (because the Vipers are off for seven days after that....). It'll be interesting to see how he pans out in the coming years. Houston was either going to draft Sheppard or Steph Castle last summer and they bet on Sheppard's shooting and ability to run the offense in the coming years after Van Fleet leaves (he has a team option for next year...). So we'll see...

    Udoka is a great coach and has done a fantastic job with the Rockets! However, Udoka has mis-handled Reed's development, maybe this 49 pt game will sound some alarm bells on the coaching staff.

    Just Make stronger more to solve the 1v1 defense. It can let him stay on the court. Then, scoring, make assist, call tactics. PG position need play more and more games. Reed enrough smart, so he can do more things when he solve 1v1 defense problem. Reed will be a great shooter in future, but he not only a great shooter yet.

    All the same things were said about Curry.
    He's too small, his ankles won't hold up, he can't guard bigger players. Not to say he's going to turn in to one of the greatest this league has ever seen, but he's also not the bust some people are calling him. There's not a doubt in my mind he's putting up 16-17 PPG on 40-45% from 3 on a bad team as the undisputed ROY.
    I genuinely hope the Kings are taking a long look. Expiring FVV contract (he has a team option for next season, not a player), Cam, Reed, 1 PHX pick for Fox.
    Cam could be a superstar in this league too. Could.
