    This has been the most entertaining Rockets game in about a month.

    Love how we’re playing with pace and moving the ball around.

    Bari looks great out there and Reed looks the best we’ve ever seen him.

    Bari covers so much more ground than Dillon could ever hope to on defense.

    I’m also noticing Bari and Reed are comfortable shooting in the mid range, the defense has to guard the whole court, not just the rim.

    Very exciting stuff.

    Reed should have been given the latitude to just suck as a rookie.. the leash was too short.

    Udoker finally read our threads and saw Reed Sheppard is indeed our franchise player.

    Expect 48 minutes tonight.

    Sorry this Nate Williams dude looks like the prototypical G-League stud who can't actually play.

    His b2b blocks (1st on Holmgren) was identical to how he protected the rim vs the Coogs. I didn't keep up with him but I was shocked a rim protector w/ his size took this long to get an opportunity.

    I'm not surprised by what he's doing. I'm just surprised it took him this long.
