I’m being generous giving him 6’ even with shoes.

And yea I’ve been lowkey about it. I had some insider info especially with Bud but it’s gonna be a whole different vibe with this new staff

Hollywood why would his height without shoes matter though? It's not like he's ever gonna play a game in his socks or barefoot :pachaha:

I didn't realize you did security though :salute:

Coach Pierce talking about scheme and the skills he expects players to have while talking about Heurter:

Hawks’ Kevin Huerter impresses, even with hand injury

Pierce, about to start his first season as Hawks head coach, wants players that come with three different skills – the ability to shoot stationary, in movement and off the dribble. He already knows Huerter possesses the first two characteristics. A player’s ability in movement will be key as a new scheme is implemented.

Said Pierce: “When you have a guy like (fellow draft pick) Trae (Young) who can facilitate. If you have a guy like Dennis (Schroder) who can facilitate. If you have a guy who has the defense constantly moving, that’s an added skill. It’s an added value. It’s what makes Golden State hard to guard because all those guys are moving, all those guys are shooting off the dribble and all those guys can catch-and-shoot. That is just from the 3-point line.

“It gives you that other layer of shooting. A lot of the league is just catch-and-shoot 3-pointers, specifically in the corners, but if you get a guy who is moving the defense and allows guys to attack and then when there is separation you are going to get free opportunities. He is an added weapon without the basketball.”
