The other thing is that i think Tyler herro needs to bulk up a little bit being 195 at his position is not strong enough to bully his opponent. I had to looked up Devin Boolker weight since Devin Booker is Tyler Herro’s favorite player and Booker weighted at 205 pounds and at that weight it help Booker not to be pushed around too easily. Kobe Bryant was 210. Ray Allen was 205. Adding a couple of weight I think would benefits Herro when tries to drive to the rim


He looks like a child out there at times. He definitely needs to add some weight.

Mind you it wasn’t an issue when he was playing well in November/December. But he (and the team) have been poor in January.

He was taking all the shots he wanted early on (picking what he wanted and didn't want), he's not a dominate scorer where you give him a role like that for a good team, it's why the scoring 6th man role would fit him better because he'd have more freedom offensively for a large part of the game.

Simple answer is he’s just not very good. There’s a league full of Herros.

Long term if Tyler wants to remain a starter he needs to learn to play the point full time, both offensively and defensively, cause on offense he just isn't dominant enough to justify 15-20 shots a game and defensively its the only position he won't be undersized at.

In the short term, yeah he probably does need to go back to being a 6th man.

Thank god for Poole and Kuzma without them no way the Heat win, I have not been impressed by the Rozier/Herro backcourt at all thus far. If Jimmy is not getting to line like 10 times a game Heat are struggling to beat anyone.

He'll get torched by any skilled offensive player.

He simply doesn't have the IQ to be a PG. Also doesn't have the shake to his game to create on his own.
He's a limited SG, not a PG. sadly.

We need to stop the PG/SG and starter/6th man talk by just trading the dude for a position of need!!

the only thing that i dont understand is the constant samba music in the background. as i understand there are more musical styles in the country. at any rate, its all beautiful down there :rockon:


It's history. Samba was prohibited music, and so is an expression of repression of the African diaspora. Carnaval is a samba party. And, yes, there are plenty of musical styles here, but Carnval is equated strongly with samba.
