I seem to be in the minority but I actually like Tyler Herro. It makes sense that the blazers wouldn't value him real high though with Sharpe looking like a star at the 2 spot to finish the season.

If Jazz move KO then they need to find another backup center
If so they should have kept D Jones

I would be shocked if the heat give up more than 2 picks and one swap.

Backup centers are a dime a dozen. Also Collins is probably best suited at the center position against most teams.

I think it only happens if it’s essentially free… like no picks… just assume the contract type of thing. I like Simons more than Herro but think he might have some pg abilities. I’d want to move Sexton somewhere if we did get in these deals.

I think Brooklyn makes sense by throwing in Ben Simmons and a couple picks for Herro or Simons. I have a feeling Herro and Ant are closer to neutral value than super positive.

I like both Herro and Simons. If they’re free you take them and run. I doubt that’s the case with either but sure.

Not sure why we would do it or why we would facilitate it. I think we WOULD be interested in some of the Nets assets should they get involved.

I don't see the value in Herro based on his contract. The Heat were an 8th seed and arguably were better when he wasn't available.

Simons is undersized for his position and we like positional size. He is a bit of a chucker even if he is a good one. Not the worst contract.

probably right… just don’t think it’s quite worth a good first unless we are dumping some long term salary.
