    Some high praise coming from one of the top PGs back in the day.
    He talks about how as a coach, he gets his AAU kids to watch Sheppard.

    Rondo: Watch how Reed controls the game. He knows the game. He's always at the right spot. He's not the most athletic. He's not the fastest....

    Someone else: His IQ.

    Rondo: Bingo. His IQ. He's able to manipulate the game....That's all IQ. And obviously the way he's able to shoot the basketball.

    A lot of posters have no confidence in Shepherd. He is too slow. He is too small. He is not athletic. etc. For one, he is very young. He is bigger than many NBA legends. He can jump higher. Shoot better. Has more between the ears. I think he can be a star.

    Hope he is not used as part of a bigger trade. Would really like to see him backup FVV.

    Why I'm liking him now:
    1.Rondo praises his iq
    2.cp3 trained
    3.
    There's veterans that don't do drills? That's not a good example for the younger ones.

    My dream is that Reed Sheppard has a late growth spurt at the age of 20. It’s not too crazy, is it?

    I'm happy we drafted Reed. He will be a championship piece to the roster for sure.
