Reed Sheppard 19 years old 6-3 Combo Guard 53/52/83 scoring splits 2.5 SPG Lights out shooter Tough Defender Second coming of Stockton? Could be available with the 9th pick. Discuss.
I like that he seems to have that FVV toughness with better shooting and an extra 3 - 5 inches in height. FVV is really 5-10 or something I've heard. Plus, Fred would be the perfect player to mentor his game.
He and Knecht are the main two I am interested with the 9th pick, but I gotta say, Sheppard is the guy i'd choose if I had to pick between the two. Would love to have 2 high picks and get one of those bigs.
Rockets have no chance at him at the 9th pick. Dalton Knecht is more likely and probably will be a better player in year 1. That being said I'd love Reed Sheppard as a Jalen Green insurance policy and have them split time next year. FVV/Sheppard/Cam/Jabari rotating around SenHub? Yes please.
I think we’d have to move into the top 5 to have a chance at him. I think he’s a great fit. One of the few players worth moving up for. Let’s pray for the lotto balls to go our way.
I think Sheppard there at nine. I think he’s gonna fall a little. I see it as 4 guys that wont fall to 9. Sarr Topic Risacher Dillingham Other than that who knows.
Sheppard (6-3) 53/52/83 __ 2.5 SPG __ 28.9 MPG __ 19 yo McCain.... (6-3) 46/41/88 __ 1.1 SPG __ 31.6 MPG __ 20 yo I'll take Sheppard.
Oh don't take my word for anything, that's just the vibe that people around him are putting out. He's also just a kid, how many of us weren't dipsh!ts as a teenager?
There is a chance he is there at 9, if he is run to the podium and get that kid. He is perfect fit for the roster. I feel like we are finally going to get lucky with a lottery ball. The gods are ready to use Houston to punish the rest of the NBA.
I think he's a top 5 lock. Wouldn't be surprised to see him go top 3. But I do really want him. I would trade up quite a bit to get him. We badly need shooting, and you can never have too many good defenders.
I was a scholar and a gentleman. Just take my word for it. Don't even take the time to look at my posts from 2005-2006. Just trust me. I had wisdom and patience coming out my ass.
I think everyone is high on these Euros and most teams are still looking to add length. There is a good chance he slips.
