Trade Derek Fisher

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

lakers don't need to trade derek fisher, but they seriously can't have this man start every game. he is seriously mis-matched at times. it's almost at the point where i wouldn't mind trading odom/or artest/or bynum for a quicker point guard. i believe in jordan farmer and i think he should get a chance to start over 4-5 games in a row span. this team is too good and i think we can afford to experiment. we've had issues at pg since 2003-04 imo.

This is why I hate Lakers fans. They are stacked at almost every position, but have a weak point so they freak out. Your team is the best in the league and won the championship last year, so just calm the f*ck down. if you want to b!tch about your team go to the Lakers Forum.

Exactly

Fisher always saves this team with clutch shots (did in the finals vs orlando) and these Fakers fans still complain

It's hard to blame Fish. He just physically can't guard quick guys. He couldn't do it when he was younger and he sure as hell can't do it now.

I blame Phil for not having the guts to bench him and start grooming Farmar. I also blame Jordan for playing inconsistently and not giving Phil confidence in him. How pathetic is it that Fish is starting over him when he can't do ANYTHING but shoot wide open shots?

farmar (expirer)
adam morrison (expirer)

for

kirk hinrich. bulls get cap space for the big 2010 FA , we solve our pg problem.

Why trade him when you can just stick him to the bench and be there to mentor your PG and hit clutch shots in the PO's.

Some Laker fans tend to overreact much

He has had a very sharp regression this year, from what I have seen. He was still a solid starter at the point last year and basically could still do everything that the Lakers needed from his role (good defense, occasional jumper, intensity, clutch, reliable ball-handler).

This year he looks like a guy who is on his way out of the league and no longer worthy of a starting position, especially on a title contender. It won't be easy to replace what Fisher brought to the Lakers last year, but I do think that a move is going to have to be made... Because you don't want to have to rely on Farmar for significant, increased minutes.

Why do Lakers fans think the other teams goal is to provide star players to the lakers?

bunch of dumbasses. watch out though, they might throw their foam fingers at you

[miller-time]

lol, no loyalty from some of these lakers fans.

all the time derek fisher has put in for the team and they are willing to throw him away like a used tissue.

i really hope the lakers have a 10 year slump, just to remove the bandwagoners.

[hawksdogsbraves]

Derek Fisher has about as much trade value as I do.

[Lakers13]

We are having a trade Derek Fisher discussion? Really? Derek isnt the Lakers problem, its the bench and inconsistency with Bynum on defense. Dude will be a Laker till he retires, or his contract runs out. Get over it already.

We should get a good 3-point specialist, preferably one who is also a good defender, but such players are extremely rare. We can trade Fisher and Vujacic for Mo Williams or Heinrich though.

LOL!!! Okay i didnt even want to post in the mbell roast and i was eager too. But this kills them all. You made me comeback to insidehoops.

[bagelred]

Perfect for everyone.

[momo]

You do not trade guys like that. Maybe he should not start of play as many mins as he does but you just do not let guys like that go.

Nice try.
