Yea well Kobe did own everything and didn't pass much. And you better hope he'll be ready for the playoffs, I don't think Farmar could jump in and do as well as he has.
Kobe had some sick passes last night too. but every time he set guys up, they missed
he gave them open shots, and they passed it right back
he cant do it alone

Why don't they sit Fisher?

He's risking tearing the whole tendon.
And 6-8 weeks of limping = garbage play

He won't be ready for playoffs if he keeps playing, cause the injury will go into the 1st round.

Now I can see the Lakers losing in the playoffs since Fisher may not be 100%. He is a crucial part of their team.

Well a injury like that typically needs 6-8 weeks it says. So it kind of is lol.

in 8 less minutes than Fisher, Farmar has almost the same exact stats as Fisher. only differnce is that Fish scores 2 more points

At first I wasn't really worried about the injury because that would just flip up Farmar and Fisher's role which I would do even if Fish wasn't injured. But then I remembered that PJax is the coach. He's going to let an already defensively challenged streaky shooter keep playing, instead of letting the young gun who has shown plenty of potential this season start. Fisher is hardly a key to LA's success, his defense is still the same kinda defense that made Troy Hudson look like Allen Iverson. I was happy about Fisher's hot streak at the beginning of the season but then he just regressed to the same Fisher that we've been seeing since he came into the league. A streaky shooter that can't finish a layup for crack and a guy that gets lucky in the clutch. Other then that everything he does is questionable.

This veteran over young guy mentality PJax has pisses me off. Did he not see how much it hurt us against the damned GRIZZ of all teams? Phil doesn't have the same kind of luxury he had in Chicago, this isn't an old veteran team. He can't just let them figure it out. Among other things, I'd like to see Fish sit down
1) To not risk further injury
2) It only hurts the team even more

All this injury does is make me even more pissed at PJax. Rather then get pissed that another player is hurt.

Everyone's dodging a bullet. If Bynum and Gasol weren't injured ; none of this wouldn't be a problem, Fisher getting injured would be nuttin but a chicken wang. But naw, this team is fcking cursed.
