1. Bet this bum still dont start reed smh

2. Spurs are disappointed that Ime didn’t benched Reed against them

3. Reed gets opens shots for teammates

4. Biggest enemy for Reed Sheppard is Ime Udoka.

5. The first half was rough. But dominated in the second half. Reed hit key shots. Team got the W🔥🔥✔️

6. Alpi played close to triple double, they are speaking what? Interesting!

7. "the offense is what it is, but he needs to step up defensively" was how Ime summed up Reed tonight. Unacceptable. His blind spot has and will continue to hurt the team. Reed didn't just contribute, he orchestrated a comeback, the biggest one of the season. The defensive liability narrative is trash.

8. It’s time for Udoka to destroy Reeds confidence again. You can’t have him playing better than all your turnover queens.

9. The defense is key…
   Spurs
   1st half–70 points
   2nd half–36 points

   Rockets went back to their roots & played locked down defense 🔒 in the 2nd half. It also helps when other players step up offensively to play as well…& not only KD. Good comeback win 🚀

10. Reed and Bari did a great job

11. It’s 100% true that Reeds biggest problem is his coach Udoka!! He has been getting 15, 18,19 and 16 minutes a game and that’s bullshit!!!! When the Rockets were playing the best was when Reed was getting more minutes and it’s obvious!! Either play him or trade him, don’t mess his confidence up by not playing him!!!?,😮

13. Guys are you joking? What confidence problem are you talking about Reed? He literally shoots every possession he takes as PG. He even throws from logo at most important times. Today he threw one from logo at 4th quarter and it hardly reached the rim. Reed even more confident than he supposed to be. Dude thinks he is Curry at his second year 😀

14. Let Reed start and play through his mistakes!! He plays fast n has no fear out there n I love it.

15. 4th quarter @2:40 off ball action with Amen and KD while Alp is in the block. Both movement and cut created space. That's what I like to see. Keep em busy while my dude Alp big fella go to work.

16. Adams injury gonna be a blessing in disguise.

17. The team play better if you put Reed as a starter

18. CC helped win the game as well .

19. Coach Ime Udoka should place Reed Sherppard in the shooting guard position, and play him at the start of the first half, because like a top shooter like Curry, the problem is that Houston players often rarely give him the ball to shoot, the other two players are busy with their individual actions to score two points, it must be combined with a three-point shoot, this is the solution, Reed Sherppard, next Curry or John Stockton

24. Ime hates Reed. Hella annoying!

25. Always talking defense. But offensive is best defense. If you have steady shot percentage, this player will be the best secret weapon

26. Bari was fantastic. He plays hard and really works at his game, you can tell, same for Reed. Great kids!! Really fun to root for, Amen too.

27. I believe he’s playing the right amount of minutes. There’s no denying he struggles on defense but hopefully get better.

28. You can tell he doesn’t like bragging too much on Reed for whatever reason.

29. 😊 I love that he is not feeding into the hype.

30. Udoka, i know you read these things. There is a strong indicator here: when everyone is desperate due to Wemby, they have to trust Alpi, result is incredible. İ think all your team needs finding the right balance with Alpi. His will to win, creativity, ability to organize the team cannot be underestimated. Check it, all team wants to idle around, Alpi wants them to make sprints, and they don't want it?! But he forces them "by inspiring them". So complicated to solve. But you are the Man, you are wise enough… And another puzzle: i don't think individual basketball of KD and Sheppard contributes to the teamplay. Maybe to the score, but not to the teamplay. Check their dominance and the winning streak…and the fast break of Reeds, where he was blocked. He could pass his teammate. He risked the score….on the other Side, no dimes for Reed and KD? Why? You must make numbers and pass on the right time. You cannot tell Reed and KD "get it and score, don't make me tired". You must also support them with all your power. They deserve that. Real dilemma…

31. Stop play amen for guard and also KD. and no Adams. and stop always say we were soft not tough enough. you should know many way to win a game not just play tough. trade ime soon
