Jermaine O'Neal spent four years as a part time rotation player in Portland before finding his footing in the league, Kyle Lowry wasn't much more than a reserve for a lot of his early years, and Jimmy was just a defensive wing with no real offensive game and we all know how he's turned out.
I think it's fair to say that Tyler needs to really push himself to be better and that he's at a career crossroads, but I don't think it's fair to just assume he's a finished product. I also think he should be available in trade, along with Lowry's expiring contract, Jovic (only if need be) our 2023 first, 2028 first, and 2030 first for whatever star player we can get to put next to Jimmy and Bam...
My concern with Herro is he doesn't seem to have a knack for drawing fouls and consistently getting to the line. I am not asking him to average 10ftpg, but I think he has got to get around 5ftpg. He doesn't seem to be able to get to the bucket and get himself easy shots, and I am not sure either of these things is going to change.
The other thing is, I think Herro is a reasonably replaceable player. Is he really much better than, say, Jordan Clarkson, Buddy Hield, or Gary Trent?
I could see Herro getting traded in the summer for VanVleet. I would hope if Beal asked to be traded Miami would pass simply because of that insane contract. I doubt Lillard becomes available, but Riley would offer everything under the sun to get him.
Absolutely Herro has a leap in him where he can elevate his game further. If mental midget Bam can do it no doubt Tyler can. Again he needs to get stronger - W/ his elite footwork this will help him attack the basket easier & get to the line more. The only question is where will most of his focus be.....IG fame & sexing his IG model wife?
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade
