After a spectacular showing in the playoffs as a rookie, Tyler Herro has become one of the most hated players in the NBA. It’s fair to say that not only is he hated by other fanbases, but by a good percentage of Heat-Nation. When rumors swirled around the Heat’s interest in James Harden early in the season, much of the fanbase was relieved when Herro didn’t end up in Houston. When Herro started to struggle, however, Miami’s decision not to include him in trade became a meme or at least the go-to argument for the casual NBA fan.
It’s almost as if a 21-year-old sophomore guard isn’t ready to play at an MVP level, imagine that?
