C'mon man... Muggsy Bogues and Earl Boykins managed to finish in traffic at the rim. Has nothing to do with generational talent.

You are talking about some of the quickest people in the league.

Quickness gets you past your primary defender. Quickness is irrelevant when it comes to finishing at the rim, over the length of help defenders, when you're tiny with short arms.

Steph has a 6'3.5 wingspan and he's not much worse.
So now Herro got quickness and ball handling like Kyrie? Herro is morphing into an elite talent day by day

Twix, Why all the Hate on T-Rex Tyler ?

Poor kid hasn’t even played 1 NBA game yet , give the kid a chance. Maybe this wingspan talk won’t even bother his nba career

Let’s not compare him to anyone anymore and let the kid do his thing


Ok ok I will shake Herro hand and call it day.Image

Herro looks like Booker already IMO. And, he’s even slightly quicker. The only thing is, that he will be used here as an Ellington. He can space the floor well, plays smart and is a decent passer. I ultimately see him as potentially a number 2 option on a championship contender.

I hear you. It's precisely why I've not made any direct player comparisons.

None of us know what this kid is yet. A handful of poorly edited youtube clips isn't going to give any insight. We'll start to get an idea once we actually see him on the court, in real game action, within the next few days.

I just find this short-armed echo chamber, that people have recently gotten trapped in, to be frustratingly lazy.

That's fair, I don't think Doc meant it as a pejorative when he called em' T-Rex, Twix definitely did tho

I don't have as much of an issue with his wingspan, my concerns are mostly on how his athleticism will translate, which we'll see soon in a couple months

If Langford and Grant Williams reach their potentials Celtic's will still be perennial contenders even after all the schadenfreude :nonono:

Honestly think this is a kneejerk reaction from the C's and a bad move. Kemba isnt particularly young - and I don't like the fit.
