Lakers Trade Derek Fisher: Bad Move, Good Move?

37-year old veteran point guard Derek Fisher has been traded to Houston Rockets.

But also we can’t deny the fact that his leadership and experience come playoff time is impeccable.

Derek Fisher, a true Laker and will always be

Good Move:

The Lakers get Forward/Center Jordan Hill who averages 5.0 PPG, 4.8 RPG this  2011-2012 season for the Houston Rockets. The addition of Hill will make the Lakers’ front court rotation much deeper, thus allows the 2 Bigs to have more rests and not sacrifice defensive presence in the middle.

Bad Move:

With the Lakers acquisition of Ramon Sessions from the Cleveland Cavaliers, a faster, younger and could really rack up some points that the Lakers needed this season. Derek Fisher should have no problem backing up the young point guard and still be the leader of this team with his experience and reliability on and off the court.

I see this as experience versus youth trade. What do you think?

“Sure, it certainly wouldn’t hurt, that’s for sure.”, Bryant said.
