lol from backing up D Fish on a championship run to backing up Devin Harris for a tanking season. He's done well for himself. :lol:

Still on the bench, this time behind a better player. He can't expect many minutes behind Harris.

Whewwwwww glad he's gone.

I dont blame him for wanting to leave so he can get the oppurtunity to start somewhere else, but why he would go to New Jersey I dont understand, he wont even start wtf. Its funny how laker nation hates him now tho haha

I agree how stupid!!! LOL! What a freakin' looser. Did he get any more cash than he would have gotten here?

However there are rumors that the Nets could trade Harris to land some other pieces.

Well he was good for what he did. Never going to be a starter. Just does not have that gift to be a star. Other point guards from UCLA have went onto good careers. JF might be the one who is just a guy that will bounce around and make money but not a name.

Farmar took the best financial deal on the table. With Fisher possibly leaving, he could have had an easier path to the starting lineup in LA. It's easier to beat out Blake than it is to unseat Fisher.

More power to Farmar. He has some rings so what's it matter if he never wins another?

He has more rings than Wade, Lebron and Bosh combined :D so he can go after the money :)

good for farmar. regardless of the quality of the starter in front of him, he was never going to get much of a chance here as long as lakers run the triangle. he'll have a real chance to prove himself in NJ. he was a good soldier who left the team on good terms. we can't ask much more than that.

news flash fisher aint going anywhere, and thats exactly what this was, the best financial situation for him where it fits his style of play

although i didnt like his cockiness at times, i still wish him the best of luck going forward

Actually, now that I think about it, Farmar leaving gives Fisher some more leverage in negotiations.
