| Derek Fisher staying with Lakers after free agent talks,duvetica online
The veteran point guard said Monday he'll re-sign with the Lakers, sticking with Kobe Bryant and the defending two-time NBA champions after speaking with several teams as a free agent. "I have decided to continue with Kobe,Giuseppe Zanotti 2013, continue with our teammates and the fans of Los Angeles," Fisher said in a statement on his website. "While this may not be the most lucrative contract I've been offered this offseason,Duvetica outlet, it is the most valuable. I am confident I will continue to lead this team on and off the court. Let the hunt for six begin." The five-time NBA champion said he considered contract offers from several teams in the past two weeks after playing a key role in the Lakers' championship repeat. He spoke with the Heat in South Beach last weekend,giuseppe zanotti shoes, entertaining the prospect of running an offense for LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, who all left free-agent money on the table to sign teammates of Fisher's ability. The idea was enticing, but not enough to uproot his family and career from Los Angeles,Giuseppe Zanotti, where he has spent 11 of his 14 NBA seasons. "At the end of the day,kevin durant shoes for sale, there's one person I could not turn away from,Parajumpers jackets online," Fisher said. "Kobe Bryant asked me to stay but supported whatever decision I made. He and I have played together for 11 seasons,giuseppe zanotti sandals, came into the league together as kids,Parajumpers outlet, and has been loyal to me even when others had doubts." While Miami has commanded the basketball world's attention in the past week,Parajumpers down jackets, Fisher's decision is the second positive development already in July for the Lakers' threepeat hopes: Coach Phil Jackson also decided to return for another season 11 days earlier. Fisher likely isn't bluffing about larger offers from other teams. The Lakers' payroll already is stretched to the limit of the salary cap with the rest of Los Angeles' veteran core signed to multiyear contracts, including Bryant,Giuseppe Zanotti sale, Pau Gasol, Andrew Bynum, Ron Artest and Lamar Odom. But Fisher decided he valued winning and consistency over a late-career cash grab - and the other time he left the Lakers for a big-money deal, he endured two miserable seasons in Golden State and one better year in Utah before returning to the Lakers in 2007. Fisher first joined the Lakers in 1996, when Jerry West drafted the unsung guard from Arkansas-Little Rock and the franchise nurtured him into a consistent playmaker and occasional scorer. Since his return to Hollywood, he has started every regular-season game for the Lakers over the past three seasons. Fisher averaged 7.5 points and 2.5 assists last year. Although he sometimes struggles against quicker point guards, Fisher still has the veteran guile and poise necessary to perform at important moments - and that's the quality Bryant values most in his longtime teammate. "We've got to have him back," Bryant said last month shortly after the Lakers' victory parade. "Fish knows we need him, and we know we've got to keep him." Fisher raised his game in the postseason,Duvetica outlet, starting all 23 games and averaging 10.3 points and 2.8 assists to help the Lakers win their second straight title. He was particularly effective in the Western Conference semifinals against Utah's Deron Williams, and he largely matched the efforts of veteran Steve Nash in the conference finals against the Phoenix Suns. Fisher's return means the most significant parts of the Lakers' championship roster will return this fall. General manager Mitch Kupchak now must hunt for bargains and unsung players to fill in the gaps on his bench,giuseppe zanotti for cheap, which wasn't particularly deep last season. Los Angeles let free agent Jordan Farmar leave for New Jersey on Monday after signing Steve Blake last week. Blake,Giuseppe Zanotti Shoes For Sale, likely to be Fisher's backup,Cheap Soccer Shoes, is overjoyed to join a talented veteran team, while Farmar is convinced he should be an NBA starter after four inconsistent seasons with the Lakers.相关的主题文章： http://www.yamakan.or.jp/furukawa/2013/02/post-15.html#comments http://www.tricklife.com/forum/showthread.php?p=9819901#post9819901 http://www.diprolenezkxei.fora.pl/alfie-there-teeth-bared-remember-that-thing-felt-comment,1/past-few-weeks-2010-development-items,12831.html#13047 http://bbs1.jtuhouston.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=155009#155009 http://www.discountphentermineonline.fora.pl/forum-testowe,1/how-to-buy-harley-davidson-leather-jackets-spun2-s,5352.html#5392 http://www.ezreadmag.com/?p=168960 http://www.ambienulaxc.fora.pl/bruno-swallowed-get-enough-all-through-stubbed-out-plendid,1/macclesfield-express,3564.html#3592 http://74238.com/viewthread.php?tid=7122200&extra= http://www.firoolink.com/index.php?do=/blog/106469/history-of-ice-hockey-spun3/ http://note.vita-cantabile.org/2008/05/29181405.html#comments http://www.wedingmall.com/jiazhen/thread-241907-1-1.html http://www.cnshmo.com/bbs/viewthread.php?tid=258930&extra= http://www.opda.com.cn/ http://www.guardiansofgrail.fora.pl/xbox,28/encyclopedia-article-spun4-spun1,6025.html#6201 http://www.vasotecdzeen.fora.pl/need-you-two-brown-the-hole-prozac-news-positions,1/tips-about-washing-down-jacket-spun1-spun5,5342.html#5390 |
