As expected... Walter Herrmann will earn $ 1.944.000 next year and in 2008 summer, he'll be a restricted free agent.

I'm looking forward to seeing how he develops this season. He shows a lot of potential.

Well deserved IMO hopefully we get a full year of great play out of his next season.

i like hermann, but i dont know about all that.

lets get hermann a full season under his belt before we crown him better than anyone. Hermann played great towards the end of the season, against questionable competition. Morrison played well at the beginning of the season and fell off.
Hermann showed tons of potential in his short playing time... but so did Morrison with 3 years of top level play in college. They both have a lot to work on and develop and both could be very potent scoring options in the future...

but lets let it play out before we write off anyone.

I am just glad he's there to run around all ungainly-like next year and hopefully keeps up the good work to make our bench deeper.

I just hope A-Mo rises to the challenge. We can always use the players/trade bait

Agreed, and welcome to the board grandmama!

With Walter being a fringe starter/serious role player, under $2 mil is a steal. Nice job MJ.
