    Vassel cant handle the ball or run the offense I doubt he would make a difference.

    Only because KD wouldn’t give it to him. Vassel had one bad game in the finals. 3pt % in the final 4 games: 42,75,62.5,40. Reed can’t handle the ball either or run the offense. His 3pt% in playoffs was 29%. Vassel is also a decent defender so would have been able to stay on the court and help with the incomparable, Marcus Smart.

    Well, he will be in Houston. FVV is done. He blew out his knee and they are not 100% sure he can start the season.

    Rockets need to unload their older players and Sengun.

    Evidenced by Reed busting his ass in practice even before the injury...
