52% from 3 in college and 42 inch verticalโฆ. Bro is gonna be dangerous
-
reed is addressing the biggest shooting problem in rockets
-
I cant wait for Reed to show up and silence the haters for disrespecting him
-
Reed is going to bury the haters with 3 pointers, the future is bright in Houston!
-
Reed Sheppard = Mark Price...a former NBA All-Star & Olympian Gold Medalist. His game, size, demeanor, all reminds me of Mr. Price. Houston did great with this pick IMO.
-
We now found the best part time shooting coach for AP & Amen Thompson.
-
These comments are off the wall ๐ฎ As a rockets fan...we got a great pick need his shooting
-
In the interview, Reed did not directly compare himself to Chris Paul but he really likes his game and calls him a very smart player. It seems he might be wanting to take on similar role. Nothing flashy just get the job done. Good pick it seems with this mindset.
-
Reed wasn't on any draft boards 9 months ago. Now he's the 3rd overall pick, Reed Sheppard has to be on cloud 9 rn.
-
Rockets just got the NBA's next Chris Paul and/or John Stockton. This team's gonna be scary good next year. Their rotation could be 12-men deep (if you include Uncle Jeff) with no drop off in quality of play.
-
Rockets should keep The same starting lineup this upcoming season and then the following season. Put Thompson starting at pg and Whitmore at SF.With Shepard and Eason playing off the bench
-
The Rockets didn't need a long term potential superstar prospect. They already have 3 maybe 4 players you can make that argument for. Rockets desperately lack quality defined role guys and that's something Reed Sheppard brings.
-
I see him as John Stockton re incarcenated
-
He bout to SOAK ๐ up a lot of KNOWLEDGE behind FVV
-
The Divencenzo comp is probably the best Iโve heard for Sheppard.
-
Reed is the best shooter, but absolutely not the best perimeter defender. Castle, Holland, Carter etc are better.
-
A good Ceiling comp for Reed is Stockton + better D I absolutely love this pick. Strone Strikes Again :rocket-red-countdown-liftoff::rocket-red-countdown-liftoff::rocket-red-countdown-liftoff::rocket-red-countdown-liftoff::rocket-red-countdown-liftoff: <-- a 5 out of 5 rating
-
Hhhhhmmm, last time Houston picked a silent 3pt assassin.....Big Game Bob Horry And no, I'm not saying he's like that but....don't leave him open for a second.
-
Pairing him with Jalen Green, Amen Thompson and Alperin Senguin will be ๐ฅ. These guys are great at getting to the cup and when the double teams come Reed is going to make them pay. Give it 1 1-2 to 2 years and the Rockets will start to contend. ๐

It's an easy comp, Mark Price.
