Herro Rumors

[infection]

If we dump picks for Herro, then I really wish our overall strategy was a little more cohesive.

1. Offload really good players for picks.
2. Make draft selections and logjam them.
3. Cash in picks for middling talent, further fueling 2.

They want as much as they can get. If Miami could get that for Herro they'd have 4-5 firsts they can offer plus Jovic and Jaquez. None of us know what Portland wants but that is a good haul for Dame. There is a report that Miami doesn't even know what it will take because Portland hasn't told them... they just want all of everything possible. Whether its prospects or picks.

If I had to guess at what the sticking points are it would be Portland trying to stick Nurkic's deal in the trade and finding a good return for Herro that returns stuff that Portland wants.

Picks aren't all created equal.

Picks aren't all created equal.

And your point is? I understand this... I do not believe a team out there is offering two legit future firsts plus no bad salary for Herro.

So you think we should pony up 2+ of our premium picks and Sexton (plus a matching salary in THT or KO) for Herro? If so, I pass.

I think in that churn you find keepers but yeah... its a bit unconventional.

I think Ainge is a value hunter and if we do pull the trigger on a Herro trade it will be because we got a good deal. I would seem that we have a ready, fire, fire, fire, fire type strategy and need to mix in a little more aim.

No, I'd keep THT at all cost.

No, I'd keep THT at all cost.

At all costs? That sounds awful dramatic.

Let's say Sexton is in the trade vs THT

Clarkson, sexton, George, Dunn
Herro, agbaji, tht

That is a lot of guards. ThT is not going to get playing time. With his expiring contract and youth he has a decent trade value.

THT can play 1-3, Ochai can play 2-3. Dunn is gone in a year. It's not a lot of guards.

Before Herro was out during the playoffs, the heat were an 8th seed and mediocre at best. Herro got injured and the heat went to the finals.

That alone brought up his value down and give him the appearance of an overpaid, minus value, volume shooter.

Herro for Sexton, cqp flexibility, and a couple of 2nd rounders feels like a decent deal for Miami... should they come away with Damian, it feels like the right thing to do.

As for me, I NEED Herro. And I'm willing to hold out for Herro 'til the end of the night BUT he's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast. And he's gotta be fresh from the fight.
I'm holding out for Herro 'til the morning light. He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life

Larger than life

Ooh ooh ooh oooooh! Ah Ah!

Oh lord have mercy!! Trading for Herro would be a huge mistake!!! I still don’t understand the Collins trade and this would be even more idiotic. Why can’t the jazz just build slow for once? We are just making the same mistakes. Grabbing high usage bucket getters to sacrifice defense. I wasn’t a fan of the Hendricks pick or any of the picks last draft, but at least with Hendricks we were adding defense, but then we add Collins to keep Hendricks on the bench and now we are rumored to want Herro to add to Clarkson and blocking Agbaji who has potential as a really good 3&D. Sometimes when thinking about this rebuild I get the 3 blind mice song running in my head. This damn org has 3 blind mice in charge it feels like some times.

I don't think trading for Herro if it is at a low price is crazy but I agree about wanting to build this slow or at least make sure that we are in a position to get our draft picks consistent minutes. As it stands right now we already have a serious minutes crunch and will have a very difficult time finding Hendricks and George consistent minutes.
