Herrmann

[Otaku]

Do you think Walter Herrmann would suit the Spurs? Why? Why not? I've just taken a look and I saw that he's on a one year contract. Could he play along with TD? I think he has what SA needs...

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

We haven't seen him for an entire season, so he is still a question mark. The only reason he has had playing time recently is because of the injuries to gerald wallace, emeka okafor, and sean may. Resigning Matt Bonner isn't a top priority this summer, and if Oberto opts out, it is possible although I do think the Spurs will go after another big in free agency, or sign Scola. I think they will use the draft to look at the backup PG situation and draft a SG to develop in europe and bring in when Finley and Barry are gone.

Well that's true, but it's also true that he has delivered really well... Just take a look at his numbers on his last 10 or so games.

Herrmann will be restricted this summer : Charlotte will likely match cheap offers and I don't think Hermann is worth a lot of money because he isn't really good.

[ALVAREZ6]

He's been tearing it the up the last 10 games or so.

Well, his matches aren't proving that. Besides, he's in the Argentine National Team, and he's an Olympic champion. Any "bad" player wouldn't have achieved that.

His matches aren't proving a lot.
Puting good stats with a bad team during one month isn't very meaningfull. You can find tons of average players who have had good stats when they were with a bad team.

Oberto, Pepe Sanchez...

[SuperManu!!!]

He is a great player, but i rather prefer he stays in charlotte so he can have a bigger role. In the spurs it will be another average player

[Bruno]

BTW, he isn't a free agent this summer.
Hermann has signed a two years contract. The second year is a team option and Bobcats will pick it for sure given Hermann's low salary.

[thekingrobert]

he can shoot and spread the floor one of the main things thats always needed when putting people to play with Duncan

[kolko]

He won Rookie of the Month!! Congrats Walter!

I thought we traded Herman to the Raptors.

[doldrums]

He has been playing great D and the Charlotte newspapers are talking about how happy the front office is with his play. I would doubt he will be playing anywhere else but Charlotte next year.

[ALVAREZ6]

As a starter, he averaged 19 points and 6 rebounds, and shooting 63%.

That's solid. I'd take him as a Bowen backup anyday.

the staff and org both seem to like matt, i don't know why you would say that unless you listen to sequ.

[Big P]

NJ was looking to make a trade with the Bobcats before the deadline & they inquired about Hermann, the Bobcats told them that Hermann would not be included in any deals, they wanted to keep him. I doubt we see him in any other uniform besides a Bobcats uni.

farming our rookies in europe, i prefer them to play in the nba or nbdl against n pound for pound guys, not soft ots who love to shooot

Almost 6000 useless posts

Who said he was?

I wouldn't mind having Herrmann as a backup SF. We only have 1 true SF.

[Texas_Ranger]

He's good but I don't thik that that he would play that good as he plays for the cats.

[Nikos]

He would be a fine bench player to take a gamble on. He has athleticsm and size at the SF, and has potential to be a decent shooter and scorer. He seems slow footed on defense, but for 6-9, he could probably competently guard most tall SF's, and even some PF's.

[kolko]

Third straight 20+ point game tonight!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Glad I have him on my fantasy team right now, but he doesn't suit what we need from our post-Bruce SF - youth, athleticism, perimeter D and a 3 pt threat. Pass.

We need to get younger and quicker remember - Hermann doesn't suit those parameters.
