Farmar in this series

I was pleasantly surprised to see Farmar after a brief disappearance in the last series (due to injury). I was excited and impressed with pressure he put on Rockets PG defensively. I believe given his speed he can be a huge factor for us in this series. When he came into the game the Rockets where unable to drive the ball to the baseline and kick it out to their 3 point shooters.

I apologize if this is being discussed on another thread - please merge or lock.

Deron Williams just wasnt a good match up for him. Brooks is. were going to need him. Fishers probably gone next game. Shannon Brown looked good yesterday as well...

The Brown-Farmar backcourt after Fisher went out was very effective against Houston's speed lineup.

True, deron was just too much for farmar. That's why phil opted for Fisher and Shannon. Now that Fisher will most likely get suspended for the linebacker-like awesome hit... phil will utilize farmar and shannon much more now. Let's hope they're up to the challenge and lead us to another win.

I'm actually kinda glad that fish is out (if he gets suspended). He shooting percentage is the craps lately. Give him time to think and practice hehe..

He'll start for Game 3 and will be given much more minutes. I hope he'll also help us on our offense just like last year. He's still a big factor for this team and I trust this guy. I just don't want him to rush his shot just like the play that Luke had a steal , he got the ball and he went straight to the basket and missed the layup.

I'd give anything to be just a bench warmer for the Lakers. No I am not Mr. Farmar.
