Paulo Alves

Maybe he did play that high of minutes in that game.

He had a red-hot start.

Hit his first two threes, started the game.

Matter of fact, that was funny.

The Rockets jumped out of the gate 14-4 in this game.

They hit eight of their first ten shots, looked like world beaters.

Then that 11-2 kind of Shungun defensive run that the Miami went on, and then, like I said, 37-14 overall run.

but Reed looked really good.

He ended up hitting four of his first six.

Then he missed his final five.

And it was interesting because he, he may did rest him early in the fourth.

And you could see that this was setting up for Reed to close.

And he did, he missed some threes down the stretch rockets.

Again, it wasn't on Reed.

I'm not blaming Reed, but he played and the, the, the lead widened for Miami during that stretch.

So,

you know, five of 14 overall four of 11 from three.

I think you got to keep playing him.

Even if he's coming off the bench, you got to keep doing it.

You know, Ben and you and I have talked about this, like a man and read, like we want to see these guys develop, especially, you know, for this year for the playoffs, but also for next year.
