    I've been talking about Reed's handles really needing work still and people just keep comparing him to Nash and CP3 and Price. I thought maybe I was just missing something. Unfortunately it seems I wasn't being overly pessimistic. Looks like he's going to be mostly playing a backup SG role for this year, so hopefully Amen can take up backup PG duties when FVV's resting. Sheppard looked much more comfortable being a secondary playmaker with Cam in there drawing most of the attention.

    It's interesting that Reed isn't taking seemingly open 3's coming around picks. I wonder if that's part of what coaches want him to do.

    Is Minnesota willing to trade Nix for Sheppard?

    I'm scared that Reed will start shooting 30% when he steps on the Rockets court.

    When we said Reed is like Caitlin Clark, we didn’t mean the turnovers

    6 turnovers already? Seems like a rough start for Reed.
