    I've never been so excited to watch our bench and third string. Very deep squad

    I have zero doubt that he is going to be a very good player. So do NBA GMs did you not see who they picked to be the best player from this class.

    I'm really impressed with Thompson. He reminds me of 94-95 Drexler with his coast-to-coast finishing.

    He could definitely be a good player down the road but people told me he could be an instant contributor and is gonna be the best shooter from day 1.

    Cam can’t look like he doesn’t want to be out there if he wants to earn more minutes, a little kpj flashback

    He’d better check in. From what I see, with a healthy squad, his playing time will be damned near nonexistent.

    Watched him play in high school and college of course. He's a really good player. That said, RS is a really good player as well. Poor night but he'll be fine. EVERYONE has a bad night...no exceptions. Shouldn't we at least let the season start before we declare him a bust ? My goodness.

    Second game in a row that he has looked completely disinterested in garbage time. Starting to feel like if he is going to break out, it won't be in a Rockets uniform

    Nobody is declaring him a bust I'm just saying all those Reedsters need a reality check these gusy were telling me Sheppard will turn Green to a bench player this year.

    Good game to exercise the will to win . Last season games to Brooklyn, Chicago and the Raptors were lost because they didn't take them seriously. Played lazy.

    Reed is very obviously going to be the back up pg and the first guard off the bench from day 1, so yes he will be an instant contributor.

    Dante is going to have a hard time in the league if he can't put the ball down in those high post situations to find an open shooter

    Nah the first guard off the bench is Amen Thompson. if Reed keeps shooting 25% he will lose his spot to Holiday.
