Miami Heat: The Tyler Herro Disrespect Has To Stop

In Hollinger’s thoughts on the topic, he says that “the voting mindset for this award has become increasingly weird over the past several years, and it’s long past time to inject some rationality”. He also goes on to say that Kevin Love’s “return to being a floor-spacing, rebounding, out-letting menace is one of the biggest reasons the Cavs are a winning team again”.

Apparently, throwing long outlet passes twice a week is the main criterion for the award now and by the way, please don’t act as if Love is the rebounder now that he once was. Since the numbers are so important here, they actually may show that the Cavaliers are better without Love on the floor.

Hollinger also mentions Love shooting 38.5 percent from three while ignoring that Herro is currently shooting 39.8 percent. Also, he says that Love is “diming people up” with 4.8 assists per 100 possessions while, again, ignoring Herro recording six assists per 100.

It totally seems to fit his narrative though. This is the same guy who had Miami going 44-38 this season.

Your favorite part of that prediction should be the part where he said without Bam Adebayo for any length of time, they would be a “tragedy”. For clarity, Bam Adebayo missed twenty-two games this year and it wasn’t a “tragedy”—just a tragic take.
