Tyler Herro Decided To Rub In His 6th Man Of The Year Award To Any Dummy Who Called Him 'Bubble Boy'

I'll always have a soft spot for Tyler Herro. Dude came to Kentucky after saying no to Wisconsin, turned himself into a first round pick and is hilarious. He has what you might call self-confidence. Not exactly shocking, any athlete should be overly confident like him. But he's also very online. He's aware of what people say about him, going back to the days he decommitted from Wisconsin and dealt with it during high school games. Still the funniest was when he remembered who was drafted in front of him as some sort of diss.

And now he's using the bubble for inspiration. I gotta admit though, that's a fire sweatshirt. Bubble Boy is a sick nickname - average movie though. He should embrace it. Herro went off in the bubble and helped the Heat get to the Finals. Had a whatever year last season and is now back to playing like the bubble. The fact he went out and had this made makes it even funnier. I'd love to know how that conversation went. He called his PR guy or someone like that and said he wanted and demanded a sweatshirt of himself as a Bubble Boy. No problem! 

The 6th Man of the Year award is always funny to me. Technically Herro is the 6th man. He comes off the bench. He also is third on the team in minutes played. He plays 32 minutes a game! I love seeing my guys win awards on technicality. It wasn't even close too. 

Just don't even dare call him Bubble Boy again. He will remember.
