Fire Notes: People are overreacting to Shepard G1. He is only 21 years old and needs to be given some time.

October 23rd, in the NBA regular season opener, the Rockets lost to the Thunder 124-125 in double overtime.

In this campaign, Sheppard played 28 minutes, scoring 9 points on 3-of-11 shooting, 2 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal, 1 block and 2 turnovers. His performance obviously could not match the intensity of this game. He made no achievements in passing and controlling, and his defense was passed by many times.

In this regard, Rockets reporter Bradeaux hopes that the outside world will encourage him. He wrote: "I think people are overreacting to Shepard's performance last night. His performance was indeed poor, but it was actually the first time in his career that he played in a game. More than 20 minutes of important games. He is only 21 years old. We need to give him some time. I believe that if he continues to struggle, the Rockets will make a move at the appropriate time, but I guarantee you that it is only the first of 82 games and it is far from time to panic."
