That stat was: Miami is better when Herro is out. The Herro Hex is real.

Crazy that Bam's 3 point % after this last game has him shooting 35.7% from 3 on the year, which is the exact same % as the last two years.
Unrelated, but Kasparas is shooting 45.7% from three, on decent volume making exactly one three a game (16 threes in 16 games), while only playing 14.6 mins per game. But then he is shooting 12.5% on two point shots, and is now 3/24. He is also shooting 92.9% from free throws.

Since last seasons all star break Bam is now at 39% on 4 attempts a night, would like to sustain that getting up to 6 attempts
Kas will get better inside the arc as he gets a better feel for the game at this level, he’s a good mix of size speed and strength for a guard so it just seems like a matter of time. I’m more encouraged about his ability to knock down the 3 and hit free throws at a high rate with his good playmaking. Honestly feel like he and Pelle resemble each other a lot, each better than the other in certain areas but still

Kas should be the starting PG ROS if no deal for Morant.

I’m almost starting to buy into it (just kidding
Herro's on/off numbers this year are legitimately bad though. The team is a -5.34 Net Rating with him on the floor and -4.75 in the games he played.
It’s a small sample size, but that’s all the fuel fans need to validate their confirmation bias and it certainly is not a good trend
He’s arguably been one of the more underwhelming players this season (mostly because of injuries) and it’s hard to argue against narratives when the analytical profile this year looks like this, the 2nd part of the year might very well decide if he has a future in Miami

If we’re lucky, the last 7 years will have already decided his Heat future and he’ll finally be gone in the next 2-3 weeks when Giannis nuts up and asks out

We really need to find the next Strus/Duncan tbh, especially if we get Giannis. It’s no coincidence all of our deep playoff runs came by starting a specialist over a guy who thinks he’s in Luka’s tier

Tyler better sign whatever extension the Heat put in front of him. He came into the season with questions about his every day availability, and has done nothing but underline and highlight the issue.

“Sample size” has been your defense of Herro since the 2023 NBA playoffs.

I ran into this vid now… enough talking about kuminga.. the guy has never been a top player ans the trade rumor stories of him is a waste of time…
Yesterday i challenged anyone to find me a worst contract on the same tier of Jovic.. kuminga is a candidate, but jovic is still worse..

My spreadsheet still has a few rows left, he'll likely be fine
Regression to the mean isn't a suggestion, it's a mathematical inevitability
I’m fine to wait for the data and see how it plays out, but you apparently have a crystal ball and already know exactly who some players are and always will be
