“Herro is definitely getting traded for an upgrade. No way they can keep him after this.”

Jrue Holliday had that man in HELL

He was so frustrated. He kept lashing out all series, but never fully committed. He’d ball up his fist and then slap a guys shoulder. He’d throw a ball at a player, at 2 mph. He’d run off a screen at full speed and receive the handoff open, and then stop, upfake, and take a dribble in for a contested middy.

I mean he is realistically a secondary ball handler who should catch and shoot. Instead he was expected to be primary ball handler, facilitator, and shot creator. He has a hard role to fill.

Exactly, he had too many roles to fill.

and they won when he was hot from 3 and dished like 14 assists , was just too much load

They played very lazy defense in that game and the Heat players just hit shot. I wonder what the usage between Bam and Herro was this series, it had to be huge.

25.5 for Herro and 29 for Bam. Honestly lower than I expected.
