STOP JUDGING GARY PAYTON IN JUST WATCHING HIM PLAYING IN A YEAR, EVERYONE HAS BAD TIMES, AND ESPECIALLY HE JUST MOVED TO THE LAKER TEAM AND HE HAS TO ADOBT THE PLAYS, GARY SHOULD STILL BE A STARTER OVER FISHER, wht LA should do is put Payton and Fisher in a 1-2 guard and put Kobe on 3 replacing Devean
I don't see the point of that. Even Doc River pointed out that if Phil Jackson puts the ball in GP's hands, giving him more free reign, the Lakers are a better team. Having Fisher bring it up court eliminates any possible fast break and limits Payton and Malone's effectiveness. Even though Shaq and Kobe are the two focal points, it's necessary to often let Payton and Malone play with each other on the offensive end. With Fisher as the point, that doesn't happen.
