I wouldn't say Hermann is an upgrade over Hayes. WH has scored > 6 points twice this year.

Interesting to note though that he won the Argentinian slam dunk contest 2 straight years.


Who is the better pick up here, Hrrmnn or Brzc?

Not mine.

Giving AJ one minute tonight was a slap in the face. Got to hand to AJ he knows how to show great restraint in public, at least so far.

For bobcats fans he was their softest player and their forums were truly happy of getting rid Primoz. I mean, softest player in a weak team...How soft can somebody be?

Yup, bobcats fans really miss Hermann, a solid bench player.

Primo had such a great year and such weak ones since. Was there an injury there? Did he quit juicing?

It seems like once you get it in the NBA, you don't just lose it like that.

Also, he started almost every game down there. If they were showcasing him, why not feed him the ball more?

I guess we'll see.

Have to keep in mind that the main intent of the deal was to dump Mohamed's salary. I think Dumars would have traded him for a 6-pack of beer if that were possible.

Mohamed also should be a better fit for the Cats. I hope it works out for him.

Exactly

It doesn't help the Pistons any to waive Primo right now. Joe talked highly of him in the press conference. Unless Brezec has a bad attitude, you at least sit him in street clothes and keep him around for injury insurance.

Yeah, keep him til Feb and mayb JoeD would bring Webber back. Bringing Webber back would be a good idea. Good idea in the sense than keeping him away from the Celts.

Got to give Joe credit? for trying to fit in two more players with a non-American basketball background.

My guess is that both will be gone before next year.

OK, after lurking on the Cha boards, I guess I'm convinced the Herrmann is the better of the two. Looks like he went on a tear at the end of last year and hasn't had the chance to show that again since. Brezec was OK once, had a back injury and some other excuses and seems to be lost now.

One thing I didn't know was Herrmann's tragic past.

in '03 his Mom, younger sister, and fiance were all killed in a car crash. Then, a year later, his Dad died of a heart attack.

That's some rough stuff. Any Piston's fans heckle this guy, they should be escorted out of the building.
