We need to stop collecting random players. We need a star player to build around. That's not Kuminga.

Did I miss it or had noone mentioned the Herro article on front page of this site from Sun Sentinel:

Tyler Herro will become eligible for a contract extension with the Miami Heat beginning on October 1st until October 20th. Herro projected optimism and motivation of coming to terms on a deal. Herro can sign for up to $150 million over three seasons.

“I expect to get something done,” said Herro.

But Herro referenced Jimmy Butler when talking about the possibility of a deal not being reached.


“I’m not going to lose my joy,” Herro said. "I ain't going to lose my joy."

During Butler's trade request saga, he talked about losing his joy with the Heat.

“It’s not as important as you all think, I will say that,” Herro said of potential final numbers.

“It’s not that important to me. Being here is important — but being here at a respectable number, I should say. And for me, I have a number in my mind, as I did on the last contract extension. And that’s why I didn’t accept the max, because I wasn’t pressed on it, and I’m not pressed on it now.

“And I feel like a lot of people have put out that it’s $50 million or nothing. And it’s not that. You know what I mean? And at the end of the day, I want to be here, as I’ve said. But it’s about respect at the end of the day. So we’ll see what happens.”



Herro and the Heat previously agreed to a four-year, $120 million extension in 2022. Herro is currently out for an extended period following his ankle surgery.


Sounds like $40+, but some acceptance early on of not 50.

40 is still a massive overpay for the 68th ranked player in the nba

Let him test free agency. No team in the league will offer 40 million. Only Andy has the audacity to overpay as he has had many times before.

Most recently almost overpaid caleb with a 65 million offer.. caleb rejects us and gets 35 million in the open market.. :crazy: we are always way off per the open market

I’m guessing the number he has in mind is 45 per maybe a bit more. Would absolutely let him test free agency and if he leaves then so be it. He’s too high risk of a player similar to Tua to give franchise player type money to

He's not the 68th ranked player in the NBA, that was some random person's rating. By stats, last year he was closer to top 25 than he was to 68.

As a fan, I actually like that he's trying to be the anti-Jimmy in a way, and saying that its not about the money and expressing more so his commitment to the team publicly. But I know his agent is probably losing it lol

I love how Tyler has improved every year, but he is definitely not a max level player. He is not a two way player, and the offense is not elite enough, ala Stephen Curry, where his defensive liability is overcome by his elite offense. He would be a number 3 or maybe number 2 option on a championship squad.

Tyler needs to show that he can generate offense against good defensive teams in the 4th quarter to be paid like a max player.

The Heat don't have a superstar player. They may have to go for a 2004 Piston's like build with the right pieces in the right places. To be frank, this is lightening in a bottle.

He is nowhere close to being 25. That is delusional

If you look at the 26-27 season, guys like Maxey, Lamelo, and Garland will all be making low $40s. Trae Young, Fox, J Murray are all around $48-50M, so I'd guess Herro wants something starting in between those ranges.

I said he was closer to it than being the 68th player in the league. And the stats back that up, regardless of the irrational hatred.
