rockets are lucky to have 3 freaking high IQ basketball players in Amen, Sengun and Reed
Playmakers
Lucky they fell to us but great drafting and scouting to pick them. I love high IQ guys and hustle guys. These 3 plus Tari and Cam are very exciting.
For sure Mr Robert have always been big on Reed. few days to draft day something change for me and jumped on Reed boat. For me reed is clearly the best player in this draft class.Welcome to Houston Reed Sheppard
This guy is a marksman. He is more athletic than Brunson or Reddick. He has a crossover pull up 3. Shoot in the face. Shooting off screens. Step backs.
Ok; you’re going off the rails. Brunson has game - this kid is a one trick pony.
@@taharqa332 always someone who says who is what before you even see them in the league. Sane people saying things about Curry, Brunson, and others too.
Reed has to prove he can even stay on the court defensively
Love the Reed selection.
I'd be willing to trade Jalen green for booker next year.
Excellent 3rd round pick ❤
Reed's efficiency and production will translate in the NBA. His shot is perfect in form and release timing. He very rarely gets blocked because he almost always makes the right play, almost to a fault. Rockets fans prepare to wonder why he doesnt shoot more. He is an ultimate locker room and glue guy because he is all about doing everything for the team.
just want him to eventually replace fred
Love to hear it!
I love it. This was a great need and a great pick. Proud of the rockets front office.
Thx for the take!
Congratulations on getting the player you wanted.🫡🫡🫡🫡 A hybrid of Jimmer Fredette & Doug McDermott. Can’t wait to hear all of the excuses from the Reed-fanboy section when he’s not living up to what you all hyped him up to be…just like with Jabari.
@@slickrick8046 Well, it’s nice to hear from you again. I really didn’t think I would being that you kept saying and talking about math and logic.

Stone has been subpar with his top picks, so I shouldn’t be surprised he drafted Reed. 🤦 Fortunately the Rockets future doesn’t hinge on this pick.
@@slickrick8046 No it doesn’t hinge on this pick, but you have to start somewhere and we just happened to address a need. Surely you can agree with that.
It's something about Reed Sheppard that makes me think John Stockton. I think he's going to be a gritty, physical, smart player and I'm also hoping Amen Thompson is spending time to improve his 3 point shooting because of how much it will help the team. If he can make opponents respect his outside shooting they won't be able to double other players.
Great pod guys. I agree with you the Rockets made the right pick
Thx for the kindness
The problem is that next year draft is loaded. It’s not just Flagg. I would trade Jalen for a top 15 pick in 2025 maybe even Jabari. And I like both. So people saying it’s only 8 or 6% are not even looking at the bigger picture.
Also Stone should have at least gotten 1 more pick or swap out of the 2025 swap.
Another point is that the trade happened bc we gave them the picks. But we also heard that Mikal was gonna force his way out and go the Knicks. So Nets wouldn’t have gotten all that package and they would be begging us to give them those picks.
That’s why a lot of fans didn’t like that trade. We let the Nets off the hook instead of squeezing them with 1 or more picks.
I've followed the NBA for 44 yrs. No draft is 15 deep. Even if you get a player who turns into a Superstar next yr, it's not like stars happen in their rookie season. I'm glad you can wait for some star who may or may not develop 5 yrs from now but you can't blame for Tillman to wanna be playing for Championship in 2 or 3 yrs after he's sat thru a painful 4 yr rebuild so far. There's tons of talent on this team. Enjoy it
The Tax Man cometh, H-Town!
Great to have the IRS on our side. 😄
Reed took a very limited amount of shots in college on a stacked team. He shot around 35% from 3P range in high school with more volume, so what he did at Kentucky was more than likely an anomaly. Everyone fell for the same thing with Jabari by ignoring his high school shooting numbers. This was a very risky pick and the Rockets haven’t been doing to well when it comes to the top picks they drafted.
Complete fake news.
Zach might be strong and long, but he's slow. People underestimate Alpi's quickness compared to most centers
Agreed!
Usman Garuba wasn't really productive in Europe. He played off the bench and produced less than 5 ppg.
So Jalen Brunson but gets more steals and doesn't dribble the ball out of the air?
Jalen's pretty strong & stout. Not sure Sheppard can quite get to that - but Brunson should tell people small guys who can shoot still are dangerous & practical. Thx for the take
Nao entendi nada do que você disse , mas VAMOS FOGUETES 🟥⬛⬜🚀🚀🚀🇧🇷
prediction/hope: shephard will explode and jalen green will be traded for somebody actually can be useful.
Wasted pick will be out of the league in 2 years.
