I'd withhold my judgment until fisher has to deal with a fast PG like Paul or Parker. This is the same guy that made Hudson rich and many other crap PGs, because they went crazy on him in the playoffs.

I still hate fisher, afobisme and DaRizzle, unnecessary.

Fisher is shooting better than I thought he was capable of, I'll give you that

So if an all star (Parker/CP) have an all star type game against Fisher for 4-7 games Fisher sucks??? Is CP a good defender because Parker scored all over the place? Is Bruce Bowen a good defender because Paul was running circles around him...you know, a guy who earned 7 consecutive Defensive 1st teams.

NEWSFLASH: They score on everyone, thats why they are superstars

BTW, do you still think "team defense" doesnt even exist? Like at the beginning of the year when I said Fisher played good team defense.

i must admit im not sold on this deal either, although he is impressing me against deron, especielly in game 1 where he was all over him, i'm having a hard time figuring out what i feel about him, all i know is that he's one of the best glue guys in the league and he doesn't mind being 5th option on offence, which is pretty important seeing that the other 4 starters are kobe-lamar-gasol-bynum, but i don't really know, it's seem to be working pretty darn good during these playoffs though, but i wanna see him stop paul or parker in the WCF, if he does, im sold and i will tip my hat off for him.

sorry for my bad english

DaRizzle

What is with people wanting Fisher to stop/shut down all star PG's?!? They are all stars for a reason.
Can we all agree that Kidd is at the very least an above average defensive PG??? Here are the shooting #'s for Deron Williams and CP3 vs. Kidd in the regular season...Ill be nice and not include playoffs

Cp3- 28/53 53%
D. Williams- 15/27 56%

I mean really...wtf

im not saying he'll have to shut down those guys, and i really think that he is doing a fantastic job on deron, i'm just saying that i'll wait and see what he does against quick guards, but i think you can also agree that if NOH moves on to WCF and paul averages 35/17 or something fisher really didn't do the best job on him? i just think that younger blood would be bether than using the whole cap space on a pretty old player...
this is not to offend you in any way

DaRizzle

Ok well 35/17 avg is unrealistic, a game sure, but not average. Also if LA and NO were to match up in the next round I dont think they will have Fish guard him exclusively. Fish, Sasha, and Kobe will all have there time guarding CP3, maybe even Ariza if he is healthy by then.

I dont understand the cap space comment. Lakers used the MLE which has nothing to do with affecting the cap space. Sure young blood is great but look at the situation the Lakers were in at that time. Fisher was a gift from the heavens at that time. A champion PG who knew the system, a leader in the locker room, a friend to Kobe, and willing to take a pay cut.


Oh PS....and not Smush Parker

made me laught.... ALOT!

beside from that, i think i understand the cap-thing wrong then i don't think he is a very good point guard, but yet i haven't either written of the fact that it could be a VERY important player, especielly if lakers draft/sign/whatever a young potential PG, he will be worth alot as a sensei/teacher/etc. but im not totally sold on fisher, either am i against him in any way, i'm just curious wether he will stand his ground against the lights-out quick points(parker, paul) and i really don't think putting kobe on either will help anything, they are simply to quick, and i don't think that lamar and pau can afford to help out to much having to guard west and chandler (midrange killer or alley-oop monster) yet u make a very good point
