Sheppard is getting hunted on defense. He even made a few threes and the Rockets were 13 points worse than Detroit in his minutes.
No, he’s not. The Pistons started doubling him as soon as he touched the ball midway through the fourth quarter. He made the good pass to Sengun...
I said nothing about Ime Udoka in that post. If I were to criticize him, it would be Okogie should have been glued to Cade Cunningham at all...
Kevin Durant had 37 points tonight. He wasn’t the reason the Rockets lost tonight or in Oklahoma City.
They miss VanVleet’s ability to run an offense along with his skill at guarding small, quick perimeter players.
While true, he has to stop looking for fouls in late game situations and play through contact.
Sengun has to stop looking for calls on drives and play through contact. Reed fouled him, but he can’t assume the referees will call it. Also,...
Pritchard isn’t a perfect fit at point guard for the Rockets. However, he is a physically mature, developed version of Reed Sheppard. He has the...
Quentin Grimes would be a terrible trade target for Tari Eason. Because Grimes signed the qualifying offer with the Sixers to end his restricted...
You’re not wrong. That should be closer to the trade deadline.
They were awarded a disabled player exception worth around 14M, but because their offseason spending hard caps them if they enter the first apron,...
The Rockets are hard capped at the first apron because of their offseason spending, and they are less than 1.5M from the first apron currently....
Of course, I do. Eason has more NBA tape showing he’s a good player than anyone on that list other than Pritchard. Even if he has a second...
Leading a team in assists doesn’t necessarily make someone a natural point guard. Both Sheppard and Dillingham are undersized combo guards....
I watched him play at Kentucky. He did not serve as their primary point guard nor consistently initiated their offense. Sheppard was a sniper who...
Fred VanVleet was asked by the Raptors to be a three-point specialist and bench scorer when he first got to Toronto. After a few years of...
Why this surprises people is beyond me. Reed Sheppard has never been a point guard. He was an elite shooter in college who had some play making...
We also do not know how much of the offer was guaranteed money. It may have been very incentive laden.
Perhaps. But, that illustrates why he needs to spend a ton of time in the weight room getting his lower half stronger.
Dort was holding and grabbing him the entire play. That’s why the steal occurred. Problem is, the refs give Dort the Draymond Green treatment, so...
