I cannot beleive they gave that stiff 24 mil. What exactly did he do to 
warrant this contract?

Now we can look forward to Walker chucking up extra shots.  Ill timed 3's,
off balanced runners.  I wait in grteat anticipation.

We'll see.  And they might get pissed at Walker.  He'll want to win so badly 
he'll just keep shooting, regardless.

We will know if Walker is committed if he has worked on his shooting and free 
throw shooting, plays something other than matador D., shows us that great 
passing ability.  I will get off Walker's back, if he changes his game (more 
team oriented)  get others involved.  in short, become the player some people 
on this list beleive he has the potential to become.

P.S.  After this year the maturity excuse should not be used anymore.
