What Tyler Hero told his teammates as he dreams of ‘hitting 150’

MIAMI – After Miami Heat star Tyler Hero returns from injury on Monday in a win over the Dallas Mavericks and continued his process on the court in a 106-103 win over the Milwaukee Bucks, the offense fell off a bit. As Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra earned his 800th coaching victoryhe would dispel any notion that Hero was the sole reason for the offense’s performance in the last two games, while the star quarterback talked about the process at hand.

Although Miami has won its previous two games, they have been close games against middling opponents, first against a struggling Dallas team and Wednesday against Milwaukee without Giannis Antetokounmpo. However, it is not unusual for close games to occur in the league, even if on paper one team looks better than the other, it is the output of the offense that worries some.

Entering Monday’s season debut for Hero, Miami was averaging a league-high 124.9 points per game, although it has scored 106 in back-to-back attempts since the quarterback’s return. In addition to Hero, it was the first time the team was fully healthy with the return of Norman Powell and Andrew Wiggins, leading Spoelstra to experiment with lineups.

Herro told ClutchPoints the message he conveyed to his teammates about the desire to return to the transgression that was present before him.

“Yeah, hopefully short-term. I want to hit 150, too. That looked like fun,” Herry said. “I’m trying to make it work. I’m not here to take over the offense or do anything. I told all the guys to keep playing the same way and I’m going to find my spots and fit in as much as I can.”

Asked Tyler Hero about the offensive slump in the last two games:

“Hopefully it’s short-term, I want 150 as well. It looked fun from the bench… I’m not here to take over the attack. I told the guys to keep playing the same way…”

Heat’s Tyler Hero on new offense ‘work in progress’

With The Heat want to work Herro into the team’s new offense, there was a lot on the line for the team in Wednesday’s win over the Bucks, and Spoelstra and the coaching staff have come up with the best rotations now that they’re healthy. Especially when a powerful offensive guard is involved, it will be a “work in progress”, as Herro echoed the same sentiment.

“It’s going to be a work in progress,” Herro said. “You know, I haven’t had a training camp or preseason. I haven’t had anything with this team, you know, they just threw me right into the fire two days ago, and then, obviously, we have a full lineup healthy tonight. It’s the first game, and I want it to work, to do everything I can to make it work, and this is really exciting to see where it is on Saturday, another test.”

Tyler Herro talks about his back-to-back great games in his comeback, plus how much of this will be a “work in progress.”

Either way, Hero has been efficient, scoring 24 and 29 points respectively in each of the last two games and shooting 63.6 percent from the field so far. Hero’s next chance to get acclimated is Saturday against the Detroit Pistons, where Miami is looking for seven straight wins.
