I always read on this board that PG is one of the weakest link in this team. If that is so, would you trade Derek Fisher for a point guard such as Kirk Hinrich? (Let's just assume the Bulls accept).
I won't. To me, don't fix it if it ain't broken.

I love Fish, but a straight up trade of him for Kirk Hinrich? I would do that in a second. Hinrich would make the Lakers the most versatile defensive team in history.

Fisher is rapidly declining in the quality of minutes given. I think he needs to come off the bench like Bryan Shaw did. I vote for Shannon Brown to start, give him lots of minutes and let him develop, kind of like we did with Ariza last year.

? Heinrich makes 9.5,9,8 the next three years he'd be a huge upgrade, a straight up trade why would Chicago do that? To dump salary if he sucked liek Q Rich, not Kurt he's a very good player and young.
OMG I just looked I thought we were done with stupid Sasha, we got him for another year after this ahhh!

Yes, I would do it. Fisher is a great leader, but we have better leaders on the team (Kobe and Phil). Seeing as how we won't trade him though, I think Fisher just needs to be moved to the bench and his minutes cut. He can still be a great leader without all the minutes and I'd like to see us start grooming someone else for the starting spot (Farmar, preferably).

I would not. too much salary anyways for Hinrich. But we cant do him dirty, though Rose would improve greatly next to D-Fish.

Keep him and let him do what he's good at and thats leading our young guns. We are moving on with Farmar so I can see Shannon stepping up and becoming our starting P.G. Hopefully we can sign a vet or some young buck down the line but for now I say leave him be.

exactly.
Fish will retire with the Lakers. His leadership means a lot to us.
