In Game 1 of the playoff series, the Cleveland Cavaliers successfully limited Tyler Herro's offensive contributions, restricting him to 21 points with 38.9% shooting. The defensive pressure was intense, with ten of his 18 shot attempts being closely contested. Additionally, the Cavaliers targeted Herro on the defensive end, leading to a poor defensive rating for the Heat. His ability to adapt and the team's need to create space for him will be crucial as they prepare for Game 2.
"The Cavaliers made Herro work hard on the defensive end, hunting him relentlessly on their way to an elite offensive rating of 137.5 scored points per 100 possessions in Game 1."
"I've been getting guarded like this all season. We've figured it out already. So we'll be ready to go [Wednesday]."
