Exactly. But the thing I love is that he wanted that challenge defensively. He wanted to guard the other team's best player. You don't see that often with high profile players. Usually you stick your best offensive weapon on the other teams worst player so they don't wear down. #5 didn't guard Herro all game. Herro can obviously fill it up, but you need that killer instinct and taking the challenge to be really special. Seems like he has that.He kept #5 who is smaller and quicker in front of him pretty well and challenged his jumpers but dude just made shots. Good offense beats good defense.
That's what zones are for.he looks great offensively.

What an excessive way to tap ones foot.
Colonel Angus approves.
Herro is nothing like Kennard or Jimmer. He and Allen are similar as both can really jump and handle the ball. He doesn't seem to be a douche nozel like Allen but thier games are similar and that has zero to do with skin color ( as comparing players due to skin color is absurd).Damn, those handles at 2:15..I don't think that's something guys like Allen/Jimmer/Kennard could pull off.
Sounds like Herro is primed for a jump in the rankings. What do some of recruiting gurus think of this?

Whether it's right or not, that's how he'll be compared in the media. All four of those guys are dead-eyes (Well maybe not Allen quite as much), and all four would probably struggle with next-level athleticism, speaking primarily of the NBA. The first 3 were sub-par defenders (at best), not sure how Herro would be, maybe someone can fill me in. They are all multi-year players.
Is it such a crime to say that there are sometimes patterns with the way certain players approach the game? Can we just agree that caucasians, for whatever reason, appear to be better shooters? Maybe because they work on it more, IDK.
I think you'd be more accurate to say that white guys are more singularly shooters, not better shooters. The contribution tree seems more narrow, and I think it's mostly about finding a role that fits your limitations. Not a lot of 6'3 shotblockers, etc.
Herro is more than just a shooter, kid has some Chapman in his game.
Uh, he's no worse defensively than the guards we've had the last few years.he looks great offensively.

When he gets to Kentucky he is going to be Blue. That is all that concerns me. People who are writing him off because he is white are probably the sons and daughters of the Kentucky fans who did not want Larry Bird here.Herro is nothing like Kennard or Jimmer.

I was talking about the post I quoted that referenced white players in general.[/QUOT
Don't matter if your black, white, green, from Mars or whatever. If you can play, you will be good. Most of the time it starts between the ears with how good you can be..

Looks like an x-ray of me when I am picking out a quick tune on the banjo.......What an excessive way to tap ones foot.

Excuse me who didn't want Larry Bird. Never heard that one before.When he gets to Kentucky he is going to be Blue. That is all that concerns me. People who are writing him off because he is white are probably the sons and daughters of the Kentucky fans who did not want Larry Bird here.

From what I've seen, he will need to improve on defense. But what do I know?
Joe B Hall for one, he thought he was too slow for college game, Bird wanted to come here but UK didn't want him.Excuse me who didn't want Larry Bird. Never heard that one before.
Thank you . Our younger posters have little or no knowledge of UK history. But we still love them because they careJoe B Hall for one, he thought he was too slow for college game, Bird wanted to come here but UK didn't want him.
He’ll get demolished defensively, Cal won’t tolerate it, he’ll get benched, and then he’ll transfer to a place like Michigan and be a star.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
I also don’t disagree that he looks really really good offensively.
