    Yeah man, good point. GP has been doing a good enough job now, and there's no need to disrupt the lineup. I like the way it's going right now with their rotations and there's no need for changes right now.

    Cool, I think I saw that one before anyways. A little dejavu going on. Anyways welcome to JBB.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting PS3:</div><div class="quote_post">Derek Fisher is a sensational player and should always be a starter and yes a starter over GP... That shot was great, magnificent and insanely nice. My reason for putting Fisher ahead of GP would be that GP isnt what he used to be, and he's no as quick.</div>

    No kidding Payton isn't what he used to be but that shouldn't be a reason why Fisher should start over him. If we were all that vague, Michael Jordan would have had Juan Dixon starting over him, and Karl Malone would have Brian Cook or Luke Walton over him. Gary Payton is still Gary Payton, possessing skills that Fisher could only dream of.

    Yes, Fisher's strengths are more fit for the triangle than Payton's, but in my opinion, the Lakers are a much better team when they don't play the triangle.

    So true, it's just so noticable. Once the triangle is in affect, GP isn't.

    That might be one of the most amazing shots I've ever seen. Only one that could even come close to topping that was Horry's in game 5 a few years against the Kings in the WCF. That might be the only one and I don't even think that was as good as this, but, it was just as big if not bigger than Fishers.

    Do you think this shot could make Fisher a legend?

    Jordan's crossover and shot on Bryan Russell was, is, and always will be the best game winner. Don't give me the excuse that Jordan pushed him off. He never did, in fact.
