Gif recommendation-Heat's 2019 draft as King Ghidorah in Godzilla King of the Monsters. One head is Herro, one head is Okpala, and the third head is Bol Bol (the one that gets bitten off by Godzilla).

I'm okay with Haslem playing till he's 40. Not so fond about some of our other 30 year olds....

Would love for Dragic, Hassan, and James Johnson to be playing elsewhere next season. I've said it for the past 4 years, we should not inhibit our youngsters, and should purge our roster of guys who will take their minutes. Having Dragic come in and win games, or having the other two take minutes away from our future is not the way to go. Dion too man.

We'd win 30 games, and have a high draft pick. We'd draft Theo Maledon and Neemias Queta. We'd sign Giannis and Gobert. We'd win games.


Out here selling and trading seconds left and right but have enough to afford UD a tour and a roster spot every fall, sheesh. If nothing else, it's annoying.

Down with selling Whiteside and Dragic for assets seasons ago, seasons ago. If we're not actively trying to trade those guys then I'm quite scared about what we are/have been doing. I've given them the benefit of the doubt on a lot of moves, but that discretion is dwindling after every subsequent move.

Of the moves that they've made that I didn't like, the Dion/JJ deals weren't one of them. JJ, of course, is overpaid, but I don't think he is by much; still a productive player. I would be happy to trade him now, given his age, if he was a positive asset but he isn't... We'd just be throwing good money after bad, that's a backward hustle.

Dion... I love Dion, and I hated him from the moment we signed him. The growth in his game has given me some faith in our team's intuition. I know you hate him; shame on you

Yeah man, those yearly post-draft media statements laughing off spending money on 2nd rounders...it's just ridiculous. Disrespectful even.

I would have sold high on Hassan and Dragic ASAP as well. It only made sense. High paid role players.

Dion....ugh. He's on my Eddie Curry list of unfavorable players. Hey, at least I'll admit Harden is pretty good at basketball. If he wasn't a flopping bitch and a matador on defense, I'd probably like him;)

He just isn't that good. Some here thought he would climb up to the top 15 and I have no idea what they were smoking. He just looks the part.

1.He got measured at least twice before the combine and UK measured him having a wingspan of 6-4.5 while his wingspan was measured to be 6-3.75 at a basketball minicamp in October of 2017.

2.His standing reach is 8-4.5 while Miye Oni's standing reach is also 8-4.5 and Oni's height is listed as being 6-5.75(with shoes) with a wingspan of 6-10.75.

3.That kind of height and wingspan difference is very rare.

My guess, Herro's wingspan is around 6-4.5.


I find it hard to believe his measurements at the combine to be less accurate than his measurements at UK. That's what the combine is for, they are measuring for every team in the NBA to have as a reference and would want to be as accurate as possible. Doing it at UK they probably were just lazy and measured it wrong.


Okpala is listed as being over 2 inches taller with shoes on...Also, we have 2 sources that say that Herro's measurements were wrong.


Fair enough, who are the sources? Can you post them?

Saying Luke Kennard defense is not making anyone feel better.


Kennard's defense is better than Bookers'...Why do you want Herro to be a bust so badly?


Did bust ever come out my mouth. You are just making bad arguments. Debating if his arms are 6'3" vs 6'4" is silly. Debating if his defense will be Eddie House or Kennard or Booker or Ellington is silly.


You dont have to directly say bust but when you do say our 13th pick is going to be Jason Kapono, we can read between the lines Twix. :lol:

We traded 3 SRPS for a great prospect. Great trade.

Herro is way more than just a shooter. He has extreme ball skills a typical white floor spacer doesn’t:



He kinda reminds me of Steph Currya little bit
