Starting Point Guard, Derek Fisher

[namlook]

Fisher obviously brings something to the table other than stats. Time to break out Uncle Bill again:

[ezau]

Lol Fisher "classy"
head lied about his daughter's eye to get out Utah. Pretty classless move.

[TheManFromAcme]

Actually he sucks an elephant all regular season, puts up a replacement level PER, contributes next to nothing in any regular stats categories, and lowers people's expectations so much that when he actually does something it causes people to over-react and pretend he can play basketball.

Lol Fisher's advanced stats. This is a guy who'd be getting cut from the ing D-league.



He's just as ty in the playoffs. Tbh he had one really, truly good stretch in the 01 playoffs and was semi-decent in a few others. Because he's able to hit a couple of jumpers at crucial times he's rewarded whereas if he were in Minnesota he would be getting bought out of his contract right now.

....leadership knows no stats.

[Zelophehad]

Cliches we'll probably be seeing in this thread:

"You can't measure heart."

"Stats are for losers."

"He does things you can't measure in the box score."

"He's the glue that holds the team together."

"It's not all about stats..."

And many more tbh.

your right,

because at the end of the day, those "quotes" you just posted are vital to winning a championhip way beyond what stats indicate.

Fisher may be a bum in the twilight of his career but obviously he still brings something to the table.

Forgot that one tbh. Currently kicking myself.

[it's me]

Cliches we'll probably be seeing in this thread:

"You can't measure heart." can you measure Dirk's heart?

"Stats are for losers." Dirk says hi again

"He does things you can't measure in the box score." true .. NBA keeps no choking stats

"He's the glue that holds the team together." Cuban says hi

"It's not all about stats..." LOL Dirk

And many more tbh.

[history2b]

Count this Laker fan as someone who respects Derek Fisher, never bad mouths him and understands his role on the team.

Last June, Game 3 in Boston....

Who was playing and who wasn't?

Tony Parker? Nope.

Manu Ginobili? No way.

Jason Terry? Lol

Derek Fisher. And he played great. Thanks D Fish for the memories!

[8FOR!3]

you're not going to win

Is that the one that they started the shot clock too late and ed us over?

You won't get much argument from me about Fisher's overall body of work. He's not a good NBA player.

But he's substantially better in the playoffs and has consistently raised his game postseason after postseason. Check his TS% of .517 for regular season, .553 for postseason career. He's had some amazing postseason shooting runs, plenty north of .600... love him or hate him (plenty of Laker fans hate him), the guy just plain shoots and plays better when the defenses are better and the pressure is higher.

[mavsfan1000]

Dumbass. The clock didn't start on time. See Amare's 0.4 shot.

Dumbass. I know that. But only Fisher can make the clock start late.

[Sportcamper]

@ 0.4

[Fpoonsie]

Why would a Spur fan make this thread?

ing idiot...

[Gutter92]

Negative win share and PER in 1st season

[history2b]

Why would a Spur fan make this thread?

ing idiot...

Because he's an idiot.

[nkdlunch]

This thread is full of fail, tbh. Fisher is probably one of the classiest dudes in NBA history. What's the purpose of making a thread to on him?

Listen, Derek Fisher didn't lie about his daughter having eye cancer. What he lied about was that Los Angeles was the best destination to have the cancer treated. The University of Utah has one of the best eye centers in the United States, which is known as the John A. Moran Eye Center. That eye center would have been able to easily treat the eye cancer that his daughter had. So, all I'm saying, is when Derek Fisher leaves the Jazz to "Do what's right for his family", and immediately joins the Lakers shortly after they kindly let him go,something doesn't sit right with us Jazz fans. The notion, that he went to the Lakers to save his daughter is false. He went to the Lakers because he hated Utah, and he wanted to be on the team that he was originally with. So, yeah, he basically burned Utah, and used his daughter as a coverup for what he really wanted to do, which was leave the Jazz, and join the Lakers. So, do Jazz fans have good reason to be angry at Derek Fisher? Absolutely we do!

[Koolaid_Man]

It's been 6 years and spurfan is still butthurt over it

hey here is something my can do:

[Booharv]

Goddamn laker fans can be re ed on here. Tbh most spur fans aren't far behind, but laker fan just does it on purpose.

The point is the Lakers are so good that they can win despite having a ing cadaver like Fish starting for them; if they had a decent point guard they would be way, way better. But instead they credit Fisher, and act like they won because of him, not in spite of him.

FAIL.

Complete BULL .

Los Angeles has better resources. The Jules Stein Eye Ins ute in Los Angeles is ranked #5 for Ophthalmology.

The University of Utah's Eye center is ranked #95.

Yeah I'm sure Fisher wanted to treat his daughter's life threatening medical condition by going to the 95th ranked provider.

Fish really hurt these s feelings...helping Kobe win more les and ... Fish's performance these last to finals is worth more than anything Nash, D Will, or CP3 have brought to the table..No way Tony Parker would have been able to bang like a real ing man with Ray Allen...

[TheSullyMonster]

Can you count?

Just skimming the list, as a lackadaisical casual fan I see Pierce, Rondo, Allen, Garnett, Nazr and Stephen Jackson on the list.

And I'm guessing there are another 10 reserves on that list that have won rings on the bench.

I know you love your trolling, but that's pretty weak.

[IronMexican]

More rings than the Spurs, all by himself.
