Series Thread: Eastern Conference Finals: Boston Celtics vs Miami Heat

He's only 20 but Jayson Tatum would have also have been a senior at Duke this year.

Can't compare him to Magic Johnson...

I can be your Herro baby!
I can kiss away the pain!

Miami 22-81 in the last 2 games.

Have to think they're due for a big 3 point night in game 5

Has anybody seen @WiggyRuss?

Asking for a friend. We might need to put his pic on a milk carton, I'm a little concerned to be honest.

We're 1 Heat win, and two Lakers wins from his nightmare scenario - Heat Lakers Finals. I'm here for it.

 

[Heatles84]

Herro's on his way to becoming the next Wade. His legend status is growing faster than Amazon stock's did.

Herro offensively is looking like Klay in this series

and somewhere, in a dilapidated old apartment, is our resident "lawyer" crying into his pillow every night...
"no....no no no no no no no no noooo..."

I like watching Herro but wow. This is my own rule. I never compare rookies to a first ballot HOFer. It's not fair.

No he's not. Stop that. In the ECF he's 12-35 (.343) from downtown.

Now wait a minute. If it's a Heat/Lakers Finals it's a win/win for wiggy. One team will lose. So he can't either bash LeBron for being past his prime. Or he can bash Riley for being the clueless GM he is.

I don't either. But he's growing in terms of his game and confidence, quickly. I make that comparison simply based on likeability in South Florida. If you're a winner and produce, you'll be loved down there.

lol, you got me there. the miserable little coward's no doubt waiting to shit on one team or the other...

Klay is only a 3 pt shooter. He can't do anything else on offense?

kid was a steal, and i'm talking on a grand larceny level...

I'll say it again. boy, if Pat Slick still had his fastball...

Going back to that argument - Miami has plucked Herro and Bam with picks in the teens. Getting a top 5 pick is overrated if your organization knows how to identify and develop talent. Bam just made an all-star game in year 3. Herro's already on his way.

I could see Miami losing to the Lakers in 6 if they met in the Finals (still need to get one win from a very deep Boston team). I wouldn't put it past Wiggy, but I'd be absolutely floored if he tried talking shit about the Heat if we lost in that scenario - 2 wins from a title.

You mentioned nothing about likeability. You said he's on his way to become Wade. Next time be a little more clear. I can see him growing in popularity in Miami. But skill set he's not close to Wade right now.

Klay's likely going to the HOF. And like I already said I don't compare rookies to HOFers. The only thing he has in common with Klay right now is they're both SG's.

I thought Redd was a good comparison for Herro.
