Alexey Shved to Rockets

Thank goodness you are not the damn GM! That's way too much that we are giving up! Just go to sleep man.

 

I saw some more of his recent Philly highlights. It seems to me that he should be instructed to pass first,shoot second. Otherwise, he will end up taking bad shots.

I am sure many people know a lot more about him than me, and I appreciate their comments.

 

exactly my sentiments... and he always torchs me in nba2k..i love this addition as much as brewers and as much as i hate deletion of trey...hope muray brings him back sometimes in the f

 

im not going to put too much stock in that sub 30% 3pt shooting. Remember Kyle Lowry wasnt a good shooter when we traded for him. Maybe he plays out of his mind...morey has a way of finding gold in a pile of trash. Let's see what transpires next.

 

his moves (plus body type and face) reminds me a lot of Tony Kukoc

 

This is such a low risk, high reward move. Shved has shown that he can score in this league quickly. He put up a bunch of points in a limited amount of minutes in Philadelphia. I only question his heart. With rumors swirling that he's leaning towards returning to Europe after this season, ya gotta wonder if he's putting everything he has into this year. I'm banking on him being rejuvenated by joining the bestimate basketball team he's ever played for.

Hopefully he plays well, garners some nice value and is flipped for Gogi

 

I got a gut feeling he could pan out to be another Dragic-type. He's long enough to play d on other PG's (like Rondo). He is Russian, so he is cold as hell and don't back down from noone (replaces Frisco's stare defense), and he can shoot free throws. What's not to like.

 

Well, he will be surrounded by Kpap, Dmo, Capella, - enough Euro for you?

 

Good pickup! Shved is a high IQ guy, if you like Big Papa then you will like Shved.

 

Interesting note on Shved....his wingspan is shorter than his height. Rare for a NBA player.

 

Eye-opening

I stay steal, Alexey Shved is a pickup and as another poster said, it is a low-risk high reward move. We get a solid backup for Harden who provides instant offense, one thing I'd like to note is that Shved is a good PNR player, he can draw the defense and pass it out to other players just like DMo and Kpap, having those three on the floor playing off each other will result in some beautiful offensive sequences.

 

Where's Luis Scola's "He look ok" when you need it.

 

Shveddy balls just can't be beat!

 

Any shvof sightings?

 

Have we had any reaction from the trade from him?

 

b/c of his very narrow frame….otherwise his arm length and standing reach aren't bad

 

I don't know about you, but his playing style reminds me of Dragic. Not as good of course, but the attacking style, ballhandling and passing. We get Dragic's game even without Dragic.

 

isnt shved just here to fill the rest of the trade exception for february?
