I read I think on Yahoo! last night that Derek Fisher might not come back next year, but that he loves the Lakers and can't imagine playing anywhere else, yada yada yada...Well I think the Lakers would be dumb to bring back Payton, because he won't be much better than Fisher next year and he offers a huge ego, so why not keep the guy whose been with your team all along? If he decides to go another team is going to get a lot better.
Also, even though the Spurs could offer Spree a lot of money with all of their cap room, I don't know why they would. He is getting old, and age really affects his style. There were games this year when he was just awful from a shooting standpoint. According to ESPN.com Insider, they are looking at Kobe, and if they have the cap room etc, Kobe and Duncan would be unbelievable. Too bad they have Rasho fucking everything up  |
I don't think that Szczerbiak and Olowokandi would be enough to lure Iverson away from Philly. I have heard some rumors of an Iverson-Baron Davis trade or an Iverson-Francis trade.
The Lakers are better off with Fisher starting again and Payton needs to check his ego and realize that he ain'g got it no more.
The Spurs shouldn't give Spree anything. They need to re-sign Manu and maybe a scorer to come off the bench, since that is what killed them against L.A. They played great defense, but they couldn't take advantage because Parker was shut down after Game 2. A back-up PG not named Charlie Ward could help too.
