Yes, I mean if the trade offer was Herro for Devin (and you project having to pay Devin 4/120).
I agree, that this team can easily afford them both *if they wanted*, and still have the flexibility needed for the future. I also agree that Herro and Devin could fit together just fine.
The cultural fit stuff is funny to me. Reminds me of the old ST topic around guys like SJax. But now we're talking about a White Boy from Wisconsin
Ultimately, the fact that Brooklyn doesn't seem willing to part with a frp for Herro gives me pause. If there's no market for him now, that doesn't bode well and we're trying to talk ourselves into something. Likley one of those potential mistakes that gums up possibilities later.
Cultural fit for me boils down to two things 1) playing in a team concept instead of playing hero ball and 2) his personality is just a little wierd.. it may not be a problem thoughYes, I mean if the trade offer was Herro for Devin (and you project having to pay Devin 4/120).

I'd expand on 2): I dont now much about him but it seems he has an instagram type lifestyle, girlfriend, South Beach desires. If he just wants to sit in and play basketball, that's one thing.
I feel like Herro and Sochan would fit right in. The team ball part... IDK... being able to thrive under Spo would suggest good things... your team still making the finals without you suggests bad things.
I was curious so I googled... yeah Tyler has a hot GF (but so does Tre Jones, well hot wife now), and they have two kids together... but I found this nugget: Before Tyler, she dated San Antonio's Austin Mahone. Tyler probably doesn't want to come here
The teams will probably take a tactical pause here soon unless Portland comes off their demands, at least that’s what I would do if I were Miami. I just don’t really see a robust market for Dame out there, or, put differently a willing offer that beats:
- 30M expiring
- salary dumping of an atrocious contract (tantamount to a FRP)
- two FRPs
- young flipable asset (even if they have to wait to do it later)
- potentially a sweetener like Jaquez or Jovic
POR is understandably aggrieved, much like the Spurs were in 2018. But like us then, PORs leverage isn’t what they feel it ought to be. I feel bad for their fanbase, but they should move to cut bait ASAP.
Uh... I finally looked it up. Keldon Johnson doesn't have to ask around his Kentucky pals about Tyler Herro when they played together for the Wildcats. I didn't really watch college ball that year.
Damian Lillard only wants to play for the Miami Heat - Per Shams
As others have already said here, Spurs were smoke and mirrors to begin with. Might have a chance at him maybe when he's like 42 years old. Eh, I'd rather see what we have with Keldon, Devin, etc anyways.
I wouldn't be surprised to win 50 games this season, but I've learned my lesson in not listening to people here who know more about basketball than I do, so maybe at BEST we can go something like 45-37.
Watching Austin Reaves’ footwork and unorthodox play I can’t help but admit that there is some Manu magic in him.

“Specifically, the Stepien Rule requires teams to have at least one future first-rounder in every other draft. Named after Ted Stepien, formerly of the Cleveland Cavaliers, the rule is to protect teams from trading themselves bare.”
why would the mavs want Herro?
Why would we want Nurkic's contract?
For those sweet sweet second rounders.
A first would be the real prize but the Heat can't trade any firsts until 2028, and they barely have enough assets to satisfy the Blazers without looping in other teams that would want assets of their own.
Evidently Dame only wants to go to Miami and other GMs are very hesitant to put together offers for him.

The most likely scenario is that the Blazers just get fleeced for 30 cents on the dollar (as Bill Simmons puts it) in a 2-team trade with Miami. Otherwise we could see a third team take on Herro, but a four-team monstrosity is extremely hard to coordinate and quite unlikely imo.Lillard has remained adamant about being traded only to the Heat. ESPN has reported that it will get “uncomfortable” if Portland tries to trade him elsewhere. It’s unclear what Lillard would do if faced with that cir stance.
upgrade over Hardaway jr
so make two of the picks a pick swap
Do we have to wait 30 days before Austin Reaves can be included in the trade?
what playing time and role for Herro (who would certainly expect his fair share as a primary ball handler) in a team with two of the biggest primary ball handlers in the NBA? You can be sure that one of Luka or Irving will almost always be on the floor for Dallas, when not the two of them, so what role for Herro? Playing off the ball?
why is tpark still being a in here? I thought you had that anger management figured out? when is the first Wemby Spurstalk get together? LMK
So the Spurs never had a chance at Dame or Reaves, the team has shown an amazing ability to find undrafted gems, but the Spurstalk ignorati are still wadpantied at the way the off season has gone.
I think hero goes to nets for Simmons. And nets add picks to that deal to send to blazers, allowing blazers to get more picks. That's my guess.
Miami can’t accept both Simmons and Dame’s contracts, sending out only Herro. Nobody wants their other awful contracts. , no one wants Herro.
Someone posted how Miami can absorb both Simmons and Lillard, I think with Lowry, Duncan Robinson, and maybe Caleb Mathin.
They'll probably have to do this if they want the Nets involved.
