did Herard replace his fingers with rocks?

He is a turnover monster

He’s definitely not playing as well as last year.

And he didn’t play all that well last year.

He had problems catching passes last year, but now he's consistently missing point-blank cleanup shots. Really not doing anything well right now. Not sure why he's in the rotation over Datcher right now, unless we're bringing Datcher back slowly from his injury. Herard also just seems anxious in general when he has the ball or is just near it. I hope he can find a way to improve his coordination and composure because he's the most physically talented big we have on the roster. Still has a chance to do that and have a good career for us; don't see it happening this season though.

He turned it over 1 time tonight. He may struggle to keep the ball from being swatted at, but 1 time in the game isnt worthy of starting this thread.

There are for sure more deserving games to criticize his turnovers.

Not sure we watched the same game. I think he has magnets implanted in each hand.

If he would have played more than 4 minutes, he would have had 10+ more bobbles. Watch the game, not the box score.

He played his best games in Jan last year. Hopefully he can turn a corner again.

He's great at this.

Didn't we use to send our post players to a big man school? Where is Mario Austin? Maybe would could bring him in to school our bigs.

Herard needs to scale a mountain with Batman and find a purple flower. His one tool is his size and he has no clue how to use it or be assertive at all.

I watched the game. Ive watched all the games. Same as last year.
Herard isnt good at handling the entry pass and when there is a loose ball scrum, its almost certain he will not come up with the ball. Totally agree that he doesnt have soft receptive hands.

Last game though- he just didnt turn the ball over enough for me to think a post declaring him a 'turnover monster' was warranted. After the 2nd game of the year where he turned it over 3 time for the second game in a row(so 6 in 2 games)- sure it makes sense to post he is a turnover monster.
But he has had 4 turnovers in the last 8 games. He has also played just 60min in those 8 games, but its been only 4 turnovers in 8 games spanning 4 weeks.

4 turnovers in the last 60min of play spanning 4 weeks. Hardly a 'turnover monster'.

Oh, and last game he played over double the minutes you claimed. Sure, you were just throwing out a small number, but its important because he actually did play more than you claimed and didnt have all the turnovers you claim.
