    Reed shooting it anywhere is better than anytime Adams wide open from mid range.

    Who said anything about Adams or comparing him to anyone? This doesn’t mean Sheppard has no deficiencies

    Would you trade him for Austin Reaves?

    Didn't realize Reaves is 27 years old. I would rather have Reed just from the age difference

    Delusions of grandeur. Typical narcissist.

    Please, talk more basketball. It’s funny watching the idiocy

    No don’t play that card. Since when did critiquing or analyzing a player equates hate? There’s quite a stark difference. Fans including yourself are critical of players on a daily basis. If a player has deficiencies I’ll say they have deficiencies. Im glad the Rockets coaching staff likely doesn’t think like some of you people and sugar coat everything telling players they’re doing great when they’re not. It’s ridiculous to go after other fans who don’t agree with your assessment on a player just because you have an emotional attachment to that player.

    We do know. The narcissist in you can’t be honest.

    Please share more of your basketball takes. They’re extremely entertaining

    Because it’s such a bad take. Watch the games he’s the only who ever makes the extra swing pass for corner threes. Like tell me who on our team has good shot selection? Hell even Josh Okogie is passing up threes and barrelling into the paint and throwing up garbage.

    If Reed has bad shot selection what the hell was Jalen Green?

    But isn't that in character? It would be weird if someone named "Stephen_A" had a good take about anything....same as if we had someone here named "Skip_B".

    To me, it totally works.

    You’re not in a position to judge what a “bad take” is. Either agree or disagree. If you don’t agree then take the emotion out and respond in a civil manner and explain your logic and thinking. I would understand the emotion from you if I said Sheppard is trash, garbage, sucks, sorry, not good at basketball. But i did not use these terms unlike a lot of people on this site who uses this language against our other players.

    Why do you bring up Green? He doesn’t play for this team anymore. Why compare to other players? The topic is Reed Sheppard only. You see one thing and another may see something else. Both can be right. To get riled up over someone criticizing your beloved player is stupid. Real stupid
