The live blog was alot of fun.  The Pistons won a scoring fest, 117 to 109.  Player of the game had to be Walter Herrmann who had 16 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists in only 23 minutes.  Shoutout to the Message Board Messiah, TADOne, Darian, and Mr. Senior aka Ryan.

Expect alot of Well Dressed Nights from this Walter.

What’s Going on World? John W. Davis here. You know what? I honestly appreciate Walter Herrmann. I really do. He tries extremely hard, and actually has a decent inside/out game. But Alas, he is ranked Number 14 on the Pistons Player Rankings because he is bait. Trade Bait. His 1.8 million dollar contract, pairs nicely with Kwame Brown’s 4 million dollar contract and Rasheed’s or Chauncey 12-13 million dollars. That’s 17-18 million dollars which would work great in a trade for a max contract guy like Carmelo, or T-MAC or whoever else you can think of.

Joe D, I see you. This is about re-signing a tradeable commodity because everyone knows Walter Herrmann is a capable SF backup. I wish I believed we signed him because we really wanted or needed him but I’m no fool. Basketball is Business. Joe D is the President of the Detroit Pistons Basketball Business. His first priority is to win, which in turn will make all of the front office employees happy because they can continue to fill their pockets. This is about money.

Maybe Walter Herrmann can prove me wrong and be a 15 minute a night player like Jarvis Hayes was last season. My heart, mind and gut says no because his playing time limits the development of the Bench Babies. Herrmann is old. He is 29. Is Walter Herrmann apart of the Detroit Pistons future? Will he honestly be on our team five years from now? I know Rodney Stuckey will. Amir Johnson, probably so. Even young Walter Sharpe will probably still be wearing the Pistons red white and blue five in 2013.

I respect you Mr. Herrmann because you know basketball is a business and you are willing to still be apart of it. You don’t know your playing time or even if you will finish off the season as a Piston. Wherever you go. Good luck to you.

Peace,

John W. Davis

What’s going on World?

I want the other Walter. Big Walt Sharpe. Not just because we recently interview him on Episode 60, but because we need to develop youth. Herrmann is 29. He is too old to qualify as a Bench Baby. The backup will only get 12-15 mins I think we can manage that without Mr. Herrmann. He is definitely trade bait with Kwame Brown because of their expiring contracts along another big name, high salary Piston. I see Herrmann, Brown and one of the Big 4 turning into a big name player around the trade deadline come February 2009.

Joe D is plotting…
