Miami Heat: Tyler Herro Wants To Have That ‘Same Conversation’ Again

The Miami Heat are coming off a really good win for the ball club on Monday night and before you spill over in your seat, follow us here. They beat the Houston Rockets, yes, something they were supposed to do but it was about how it happened that made it “good”.

It was the day that saw the return of a guy that could be one of the biggest missing links, up until this point in the season, to what could amount to a Miami Heat title.

Victor Oladipo-Day was finally upon the Miami Heat fans and faithful.

Though the Heat made you sweat it out a bit in the first half of the game, they would eventually put themselves in cruise control as the second half got underway. And hey, Oladipo actually also had himself a good showing too.

He would finish with 11 points, a rebound, and four assists on the night on 4-7 shooting from the field and 2-3 from downtown in a restricted 15 minutes of action.

And for as great a feeling, showing, and occurrence as that was for the Miami Heat, it was almost overshadowed.

A man that has been killing the league this season, is well on his way to winning the NBA’s Sixth Man Of The Year award, and should be atop the list for the Most Improved Player award too, Tyler Herro continued to absolutely show his behind on Monday night.

Going for 31 in the game, that actually seems lackluster now and in the grand scheme of it all, especially considering that he went for 21 of those 31 points in the second period alone.

He continued to dig deep in his bag of tricks.

He made threes, he drove the lane, he hit you with the short jumpers, and everything else he wanted to do to the defense. The 35 footer at the end of the period was the icing on the cake.

The man was unbelievable. On a night where the Miami Heat looked like they could lose to a Houston team they had no business losing to, Herro became his namesake early in the game—a hero.

Miami Heat: Tyler Herro May Not Be In That Top Tier Yet, But He’s Climbing

Hey, but a showing like that brings up an interesting thought. Does anyone remember this conversation?

You have to remember this little thought from Herro that nearly broke the internet and made the rounds with the talking heads. Ok, here it is, to make it easy.

Ah, yes, this little comment caused so much chatter out there. Feeling as though his name should be mentioned with the Luka Doncics, Ja Morants, and Trae Youngs of the world, Herro said what he said and has now backed it up.

Listen, a top-25 (24) scorer in the league at this point in what is just his third year and 22nd year of existence on the earth, Herro might not be on the level of those guys yet, but is nipping right on their heels.

He is growing every night as a playmaker, other than lob passes (a hearty chuckle applies), while he is even showing capable of being your lead ball-handler or at least, one of them. Yes, he had a few costly late turnovers in their last game against Milwaukee, but those are things you trust him to clean up.

The man is a magician with the rock. He’s a freaking scorcerer.

So, again, while he still has a bit of work to do, he isn’t as far behind as most would like to imagine. If it’s not time already, Tyler Herro will be looking to revisit that “same conversation” again—and very soon.
