It seems like taking the fact that Reed performed so well and using it to as reason for the loss is missing the point. We lost that game for a variety of reasons that have been hashed and rehashed quite a bit.

It seems to me that the point was that Reed was the type of player you want, and honestly the type of player you need. A backup that's reliable and dependable, a guy that has the ability to show up and perform big when he's called upon (like in the playoffs.)
