Reed is going #1. We are gonna miss out on him like Paolo while dumb suckers here yearn for Jabari and Sarr. This fanbase has some of the dumbest fans in terms of talent scouting. Smokescreen over smokescreen.
Unlikely. Atlanta will draft Sarr, The WIzards could potentially take him #2, but probably won't. He's likely to be there at #3
This is such an extremely lucky bounce, we better not mess this up. Draft Sheppard. We will be so loaded.
Just saying that if we draft Reed, we have some absolute steal machines on the team in Tari, Amen, Reed, Fred, Alpi (yes, Alpi got the second most steals per game of all centers).
You are on crack cocaine if you think Reed Sheppard and all of his 3 points in his NCAA Tournament history is going 1 or 2. He’ll go between 7-9. I am friends with someone who played last year for Kentucky and he swears that Dillingham is the better of the two. If by chance we screw up and take him 3rd, I’ll enjoy the one aspect that he brings in threes, but just remember that will come at the expense of Cam’s playing time. We need to address the height issues this team has and not add an undersized one trick pony at number 3.
I mean it’s right there in our hands. The Rockets being complicated and trying to be cute with the pick is the only thing that will screw things up.
Sheppard stole a lot in NCAA but not sure he can do that in NBA with his T-Rex arms. Steal monsters tend to be guys like Jaden McDaniels and Trevor Ariza.
Highly unlikely. Almost certain at this point that Sarr and Risacher are going 1 & 2. Reed should be there at 3.
yes! this is exactly why the all time steals leader is.... john stockton?? who has a.... 6 ft wingspan??? wait i thought only long players can steal the ball... what?? how did cp3 lead the league in steals/game in 6 of the seasons that he's played? i've heard he's got a short wingspan too... hmm.. is it because steals has more to do with anticipation and bball iq?
Not necessarily. Chris Paul has led the league in steals 6 times, Allen Iverson 3 times, John Stockton twice, etc. CP3 has a 6'4 wingspan, Iverson a 6'3 wingpan, and Stockton had a 6'0 wingspan lol. Stockton's a great comp for Reed defensively actually. Stockton was 5x First Team Defense with those short arms. He had incredible anticipation though, much like Sheppard does, and he also just competed really hard and played his tail off defensively. He also took lots of charges, much like Sheppard does. Wouldn't at all be surprised if Reed Sheppard leads the league in Steals at least once in his career.
