    Just live with the ups and downs of a smart, calm, tough and above all, really really talented guy, you will reap the gains.

    When Reed gets a chance to play, he makes a difference, ALWAYS.
    Even if his shot isn’t falling, the threat of his shot opens up everyone else, and he’s getting better and better at getting to the rim.
    The play where he froze Cade was so nasty.

    I hope Ime trusts him to play through mistakes and keeps him on the floor in crunch time, as he did against Detroit. He, Reed and we, will benefit from it.

    Reed Sheppard is quite good at putting the orange ball inside of the basket in various ways.

    Reed Sheppards skills for a rookie are just insane. The way he froze cade… Good lord he’s gonna be a problem when he’s 25.

    High basketball IQ and great natural instinct. He knows what moves to do at the right time and he sees the floor so well. He just needs minutes because he's a known commodity at this point. Teams are afraid of his shot. It's a crime he isnt in the starting line up.

    Calling a 2nd year player a rookie is a mental illness at this point.

    He’s a rookie. First year of consistent minutes.

    Reeds Sheppard is largely responsible for our largest wins for you into:
    Vs GSW w no Durant
    Vs Denver with 28
    Vs Lakers he has a good spark when they were coming back
    Vs Spurs led us to our comeback
    Vs Suns 3rd game it was his spacing which allowed jabari and durant to hit massive shots

    Reed IS the franchise player. Reed Sheppard will get better and udoka, please thrust him.
