Very interesting thread over on the Rockets message board. They love the selection. 463 Houston fans weighed in and 426 love the pick.

That's a surprisingly high number. I would've thought it'd be a lot closer to 50ish. I hope they got a steal at #3.

...or, he struggles a bit, they trade him to the Pacers, and then he blossoms into an All-Star. Either one.

Reed was the logical pick, they needed shooting and he’s the best shooter in the draft. Should form a nice pick and pop duo with Jabari Smith.

He's a hard kid NOT to like.

Sheppard is basically living the role of me in the first act of every wetdream I had when I was 12-14 years old.

I think the only ones who didn't like the trade, would have just rather moved the 3rd overall pick in attempt to get an established star. Not many Houston fans would have preferred someone different

The Hawks could have made the headlines taking him overall #1.

Instead, they take a maybe type player. But it's the Hawks.
