    I like this, although there is no way Shepard is ahead of Whitmore on the depth chart.

    holy shite he said "they've got good young players," PLURAL . . . as if any of those other young players can sniff the same air as Alpi. REPORTED.

    You never know. He's not only a great shooter with 53.5 FG% and 51.7% 3PT%, but he's also great on defense.

    I think he has the potential of being a much better overall player than Jalen or Cam, and I really really really really want to draft this kid.

    Defensively he has been ridiculous at the point-of-attack, and has racked up a ton of steals this season as he’s averaging three steals per game. What makes Sheppard stand out, aside from his ludicrous efficiency, is how quickly he reads the floor. He is a reactive player, capable of making split-second choices without piling up mistakes. He doesn't predetermine. He doesn't let the defense dictate his decision-making. Sheppard is elite when it comes to taking what the defense gives him and operating selflessly to elevate the team around him.

    Do you realize you positioned your whole persona on this board for mere 3 people with 7 accounts around the world. You can be better, there are so many memes you are missing because of this act you fixated yourself, which became really stale at this point. We need more and versatile memes. (Which means boob in turkish btw LOL.)

    I would love for the Rockets to draft him as well. Doubtful he is going to be ahead of Cam in the rotation as a rookie if we do draft him, but if he manages to do it, it would be a good problem to have!

    Thanks, appreciate it. However even the best dish sucks after eating it 3 meals in a row.

    I've seen enough. Keep him in Houston until he retires.

    Already looking a lot better in his second game, thought it would take longer, encouraging.
