Goodbye Fisher.

After sixteen long years with the lakers, Derrick Fisher is now gone. Fisher entered the lakers with MVP Kobe Bryant since 1996. Out of the 16 seasons the Lakers won five NBA titles during their combining careers. As Derrick Fisher left for Houston and Ramon Session's arrival from Cleveland made the "Lakers younger and faster at point guard their weakest position." Laker's general manager Mitch Kupchak did not yet speak to Bryan before or after the trade of Fisher. However, in response, Bryant canceled a scheduled interview on the Laker's progress as he heard of Fisher's departure since Bryant seemed to take the news very harshly. Although Kupchak knows his concerns about breaking up the roster that reached three straight NBA finals since 2008 to 2010 his goals are to make the Lakers younger. Even though Bryant was younger, Fisher could not keep up with someone whom is four years younger than him. In reference to Chicago Sunday Times, the Laker's point guards are generating only 12 combined points per game this season therefore making this the lowest average in NBA history. Kapchak is confident that with the trade it will help the Lakers improve and continue to win like they have previous in the past years.
