The Thunder signed Derek Fisher for the remainder of the season early on Monday.
Fisher, a five-time NBA champion, should have an easy transition after playing 20 games for OKC before their playoff run last season. He averaged 4.9 points, 1.4 rebounds and 0.6 steals in 20 minutes during that stretch, which gives an accurate picture of his fantasy value.

As well as Reggie Jackson has played for them, i assume this is just to be the 3rd/emergency pg now that Maynor is gone.
Still, Fisher is garbage.
-
Also 1.4 assists (pertinent to PGs).
Somewhat notably he did slightly better in Dallas in 9 games this year (8.6/1.7/3.4 on 25 minutes/game)

Reggie Jackson has done a really good job for OKC.
I hope they don't bench him for Fisher.
-
He has largely rode coat tails his whole career albeit with the knack of a timely shot here and there, no surprise.
-
I guess his family doesn't need him to spend time with them whenever there's a job available with a contender, with the added bonus of being on an NBA roster, which can allow him to extend his reign as NBAPA president.
-
Hs a free agent hes allowed to go wherever he wants.
Of course he did ask to be bought out by the Mavs a couple months earlier to spend time with his family but those are just mere facts
-
Hope they show up at one of his games.

This is great, more people should give him a hard time for what he did in Utah.
-
Walking out on one team to join a more competitive one later on....
Gee Fisher has never done that before...what a surprise.

Sadly given how much they played him last year I think this will happen.

Reagrdless, its a good move for OKC. His presence in the locker room probably helped their finals run last year, no reason to not do the same this year.

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised.
He consistently was exploited when I watched OKC play.

When I watched him in the playoffs I thought he was a pretty average backup PG. At 37, he's obviously gonna have trouble on point guards but I think he did a great job at starting the second unit's offense and hitting 38% of his 3s.

He played 22 MPG, which is way too many minutes.
They were using him as a SG or rather Westbrook as a SG I guess a lot of those minutes. Fisher hurt the team on the court for all that he might have done in the locker room.

He hit his threes at a good rate but I don't think he did anything else for them and he slowed them down.

Who else did they have though? The Thunder rely heavily on their spacing, and Fisher did his job, hit all of his FTs, and got them into their offense when Westbrook was off the court while only turning the ball over .3 times a game.
I never said he did a lot for them Snakehead, but he held his own. Better than any other young PG without a team could've done in the playoffs, and he brought far more experience than any of them.

Thabo should have played every minute they didn't need Fisher bring to ball up the court. He got essentially the exact same minutes as Fisher and is a much better player.
-
Wow, didn't realize Thabo played so few minutes. Fisher wasn't hurting the team with his play, he was hurting them by stealing a better player's minutes. Complete coaching fail, you're 100 percent correct.

So glad we got rid of Collins because of this.

x1000.
It astonishes me how reluctant a lot of coaches are to go with an 8-man rotation even in the playoffs (unless there's injuries).
