We are about to become the greatest team ever based on hype. We have: Jalen Green - mix between Kobe and Jordan Sengun - Jokic with better mobility Jabari - mix between KD and KG Amen - TMac with a good back Tari - Crash Wallace with good knees Sheppard - Curry with Nash’s playmaking Brooks - Black Shane Battier FVV - Black CP3 with range We might never lose a game again.
If the Chasedown fastbreak rejection is a LeBron, Sheppard's closeout on a 3 will need to be an H&R Block. And when he gets a 2s+teal, 2+block, 2+ assist, 2+ rebound, 2+ 3PT-make game, he's diversifying his portfolio.
Reed should immediately get Aaron Holiday level minutes…I expect that to be his place in the rotation to start out main 2 things I’ll be watching like a hawk to start the season are Jalen Green improvement/consistency and if Jabari makes a leap…after that, it would probably be if Amen’s jumper shows any sort of pulse
We ran FVV too hard last year. We needed a well-rounded 1 to give him some rest. If he gets 10-15 minutes to start that give Fred some rest and gets Shep some experience running the team.
For years we have been b****ing about the Rockets not signing/drafting actual shooters and they finally do it and this board is a wine fest.
Missed the start of the draft and catching up now. Cool that they did end up getting Reed. I was on that bandwagon 6 months ago, and while I would have liked a lot of guys (especially if future assets were coming), I'm definitely excited with this pick.
