I've never seen a more incompetent player than herro. can this guy do one thing right??? can't defend, can't shoot, can't get to the line, can't defend, awful decision making, horrible when pressured, turnover prone even without pressure. and we all knew it and been saying it for years. only ones that can't see it are working for the Heat
