Yeah but remember in the beginning of the year, Ariza started to take all the minutes and sasha was forced to the end of the rotation behind radman and Ariza. It wasn't until Ariza got hurt that Phil started to give him more time, then that's when he really started exploding and hitting his shots.

So you guys still think management (Kup, Phil, ect) would rather give away Fisher over Sasha?

Fisher better watchout!

Vujacic experienced a bit of whiplash in Game 6, taking a charge against Utah's Paul Millsap and banging his head against the court.

"Everybody was teasing me and joking around in the locker room afterwards, but it was worth it," Vujacic said. "We got away with a win and it was great."

And what was the teasing about?

"My first charge of the year and stuff like that," he said.

Yes I do Kno, we are talking about value. Sure we all love the D Fish near iconic status, but hes got what 2 years left Shashas what 19?

It's abusiness Kno, you know that ;)

Sasha's 24 and no he's not as good as Fisher.

from the NBA GM Handbook:

Role players are never assessed based on potential, its what they can do to help you at the moment.

Yep, or was the 5th Beatle, or was Apu from the Simpsons the 5th Beatle?

What makes people think that they would ever trade Fisher? My guess is that he will be a Laker for the rest of his career, and then maybe added to the coaching staff.

I'd pay Fisher to just sit on my bench and groom the young guys.

come on everyone knows it was goerge martin or more accurately geoff emerick...

or in this case, walton...no need for offense with that crew, just smart passing...sasha isnt a bad choice either

Isnt the main goal of the NBA to win a championship?

Why handicap yourself now when we have Pau/Kobe/Bynum/Odom (which might not be together for very long) waiting on their western conference final opponent by letting go of a veteran, leader, motivational speaker, starter, and PA president just to keep Sasha for later?

If you have the chance to win it now, you do everything you can to take it all the way. You dont let go of your starter for hopes that Sasha later develops into a player the quality Fisher currently is.


A successful business requires smart, technical moves Duba, you know that ;)
