Walter Hermann
There is literally nothing going on with the Nuggets right now. Novak is gone. I am being driven to think crazy thoughts about how to avoid signing Wally World to fill the vacant scoring swingman role. I don't think Wally would be a great addition. I won't lose any sleep if we do sign Wally, I just think he's a stiff and there are many other more interesting guys with a lot more upside who deserve a shot.
What's going on with Walter? He can shoot the 3, and it will give us another white guy and some long hair on the team. I guess it's probably unlikely we'll suddenly get proactive so late in free agency, so let's discuss who shoul dget the final roster spot
Wally, Kurz, Brumbaugh/Karl/D-leaguer, or someone else?

kruz, ect., ect., ect.
read where kruz is going to sign with cleveland. all because novak has signed with lac does not mean denver cannot get him. now that his contract is settled he can be traded. when wally says the nugs and other teams want him i read it this way- supply and demand. if more than 1 team wants him he would want more than the minimum and muti years. he was trying to use denver as leverage and might have talked his way out of a roster spot. aaron gray could still be had after he signs. bulls have 12 players now with ag makes 13. 4 out of the 13 are centers- gray, noah, brad miller and jerome james. chicago has several problems- no low post scoring and they let their leading scorer the past 4 years and best outside shooter ben gordon go to rival detroit and got nothing in return. bulls are a major player in the 2010 free agent derby too. look for lk’s rights and denver’s multiple trade exceptions come into play.
Walter Herrmann has returned to Spain. He signed a two year deal with Caja Laboral.
Herrmann would have been a good low cost replacement for Kleiza … ah well
Good call
I found this out too after I posted it, I hope he owns LK if they ever play olympiacos.

Brumbaugh
I think Brumbaugh might be a good bench warmer, though he was supposed to be much better than he has thus far turned out to be so maybe he’s a diamond in the rough or he just sux… either way he likely will be cheaper than Wally World.

His nickname alone makes him worthless
I would boo ol’ wally world if ever he suited up as a Stiff. (That’s right I refuse to capitalize his name) Maybe six years ago but not now. As far as K Brumbaugh goes I have now idea. I can’t say as I’ve ever seen him play. He has to be better on D than wally world though. wally’s D is something like the Broncos D last season…Ole`
Can we get a post about the worst Denver nicknames ever? In any sport.

Keith
His problem was that he had off court issues, ended up in junior college and didn’t really get to prove his talent against good competition. The Nugs have had some success bringing in players with a streak of poor decision making in their lives. I agree that he fits the role of an end of the bench guy pretty well. If he would have made it to a better college he might have had first round talent.
Wally hasn’t been good for 2 years, his playoff stats in those years are a little discouraging. Like I said I wouldn’t be super mad if he signed for the minimu, I just think there’s more risk than reward to that move. Coby Karl and Brumbaugh would round out the roster well enough, provide some insurance at the SG and SF spot where the Nugs are very thin right now.

If Kroenke is willing to shell out the money, I'd like to see Flip + either Brumbaugh or Kurz
Novak+Pops would’ve been best, but both have already been taken.
