This mfer killed me with all these crazy layups when he played for us. He always looked like he was trying to do that Dr. J layup

I can’t believe he did all that in one move

Walter Herman! There’s a clip of him doing a ridiculous lay up in Detroit, and another clip of him stripping into his underwear doing a dunk contest and judges loosing their fucking minds. Cool guy, got the tie breaker for all rookie 2nd team in his first year for the bobcats

MeC0195OPSpurs•

As an Argentinian I might be biased, but I think he deserved more than 3 seasons in the NBA.

cheese_maniac[LAC] Patrick Beverley•

And more in the Argentina team. Idk if he didnt want after the accident, but he had a few more years before being cut.

3
MeC0195OPSpurs•

The accident was in 2003 and he was part of the team that won the Olympic gold in 2004.

I'm not argentinian and I totally agree with you. Very talented player.

It was a reverse layup, right? That's what I first thought of when I realized the clip was about him

1
zoragala[SAS] Dejounte Murray•

Herrmann's story is honestly incredible. He lost his mother, sister, and fiancee in a car crash, then his father died exactly a year later from a heart attack. I will always remember that last month his rookie year when he was genuinely the best player on the Bobcats.

31
MeC0195OPSpurs•

Yeah, that has to be one of the most tragic things I've ever heard of. I think he could've had a bigger NBA career if he landed on a better organization, or if his Charlotte coach at the time had stayed.

11
mysticfishes[PHI] Kyle Korver•

Nah I'd say the most FROgotten layup was the reverse by Dr. J

16
OtherShadeGrand Floridian•

I was honestly expecting that when I saw the title lmao. Thought it was just a play-on words instead of a typo.

Only the real ones know about the beauty Walter Hermann!✨

Walter Herrmann Heinrich, you can't have a more German name!

Did he just burn two Morrises? Lol.

This dude’s highlight reel is insane

Oh man, I forgot about Walter Hermann. Argentina had some legit studs. Ginoboli,Scola, Hermann. Scola was a beast on the low block for his size... too bad the NBA was moving away from that style of play.

3
MeC0195OPSpurs•

Scola adapted pretty well to the evolution of the NBA. His last two seasons, he was making 3s at a pretty good rate.

Walter Hermann AKA the Argentinian Fabio
