Yeah I was surprised. You may be right on his athleticism. Curious how well his lateral quickness is going to come out
Nice vert by Sheppard, damn
I'm not diametrically opposed to taking him, and if we do, I'll hope the shooting and defensive instincts are as advertised! Just think I'm in...
We talked earlier about this and his standing reach is like 3" shorter than Steph's. I'd also contest the idea that he's more athletic than...
It's 6'3" in shoes, sure, but the average wingspan and standing reach and so-so athleticism though...
I mean I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you--I'd actually say "FVV with (potentially) better shooting" is my comp for Reed's ceiling. But now...
One thing about all those guys except maybe Donte (who is much bigger than Sheppard) is that they're great passers. My understanding is that, as...
Curry does have an 8'1" standing reach to Sheppard's 7'9.5". Pretty major difference there
Like I'm legitimately taller/longer wingspan than Reed or Rob--I'm surprised at just how small they really are. FVV is able to be fairly...
Gimme Ayo Dosunmu instead of Caruso and I might do that
Yep yep yep. Knew it. So the only way they're taking a guy like Reed Sheppard is if they think he's legit the BPA. I feel like the Rockets'...

I can more easily see this FO picking Risacher, Cody Williams, or even Topic even though I personally don't think I'd go with the latter two for...
You are correct that Clingan is a Walker Kessler type, but that's this draft class for ya. Kessler outplayed his draft slot and is a solid...
Luka is pretty athletic actually--people think he's slow because he's a white boy He has Harden-ish sneaky athleticism Jokic is faster than Edey...
I think the Nets have been very clear that they're looking for a Gobert-like haul for Bridges, so I'm coming from the perspective of "what would...
I will say, whether he's the "correct" pick or not--I can see the argument both ways--I kind of doubt this front office picks Reed Sheppard at #3....
