“Where’s the Popcorn?”- Twitter reacts to Tyler Herro and Jusuf Nurkic Swinging Arms at each other in Heats vs Trail Blazers
Tyler Herro and Jusuf Nurkic exchanged some hefty arm swinging on the court during the Heat vs Trail Blazers’ showdown.
Miami Heat is surely one of the hottest teams this season, with a score of 24-15, they occupy 4th place in the Eastern Conference. After a disappointing 2020-2021 season, the Heats are adamant to turn the tides in their favor this season. They have registered 12 wins in 16 of their matches at home till now.
The Heats haven’t won a single title since 2013 when the four-time MVP and the former Heats player LeBron James led them to their 2nd Consecutive NBA title after crushing the 2012 NBA Finals but since then no title. We can say that the Post-LeBron era might have hit the Heats quite hard but you gotta do what you gotta go.
With some splashing changes, the Heats entered this season but other than Jimmy Butler’s impeccable performance the Heats have been picking quite a lot of other things on the court like Fights.

Tyler Herro and Jusuf Nurkic gets into an Altercartion!
The match between the Portland Trail Blazers and the Miami Heat at the Moda Centre ended with a lot of whistles; referees whistles. Heat’s Tyler Herro and Blazers’ Jusuf Nurkic engaged in a physical scuffle on the court resulting in their immediate ejection for the game.
This was transpired during the 4 quarter when there was just a minute left on the clock. The Portland was in possession of the ball and continued their offense. Norman Powell was in the possession of the ball and to help him Jusuf gave a screen to Herro. But Jusuf lowered his shoulder while setting the Screen which resulted in a harsh clash. The clash was strong enough to make Tyler Herro fall on the floor.
And, Tyler surely didn’t like it. He went and shoved the 7 foot-er from behind. Jusuf Nurkic too lurched his left arm towards Tyler in retaliation, hitting his face. The fellow players from both the teams intervened to contain any more physical exchanges but things were already down and the only thing that was left were: consequences.
As a consequence of breaking the rules, both the players were shown the way to their lockers rooms. The Miami Heat defeated the Blazers by 115-109. And, if you are wondering if it’s a coincidence then let me take you back to November 8th when the Heats battles the Denver Nuggets. Heat’s forward Markieff and the reigning MVP Nikola Jokic too exchanged some shoves and punches and they had to pay a hefty price both with money and suspensions.
Now, whether Herro and Nurkic will receive just a fine or a suspension is still unclear. What do you think?
