He has a few holes that cannot be corrected. He isn't a traditional pg. His defense is horrible and he doesn't rebound. His jumshot isn't consistent. He's nowhere near the other top young pg in the league. He cant sustain a high level for a long period. He also looks funny. The Lakers could have already been a dynasty w/o all the blown picks they make in the draft. HORRIBLE. Let Kobe play. Imagine they had a steady real pg. They'd including Lamar Odom and Kobe would score more. Run More and it would really be Showtime. I'm suprised that with Magic being involved they haven't found a pg. Marcus Williams would have been ideal for this offense. I'd even package Farmar and the machine for Sessions. There are a few places you could go. I think a person like Tinsley would thrive in this system. Kobe works to hard partly because he wants to be Mike so bad. Imagine Mike and Magic in a backcourt. They both would have loved it. I'm praying Wade and Lebron come together to contest for the best 1 2 punch ever. Point Guards are essential. If the Hawks,Blazers,Knicks,or Wizards or Cavs had a talented PG. They'd all go much further than current. You can't replace. The Lakers could have easily blown another chance this yr. If Skip played better than he did to get them their. They could have one. He just couldn't see the big picture. He played horrible and it wasn't Van Gundy's fault. The Magic are not the same w/o Skip. Even if the Bobcats or Thunder had a lead guard. Man they'd be fun to watch. Brandon Jennings and Johnny Flynn are the new Paul & DWill. Mark my words from a real baller. E.Maynor is a sleeper. He gives the Jazz much needed relief. Collison can't fill the role or void of CP3. Lastly appreciate the last years of Kidd & Nash. It's a reason they're still starting and A.I. isn't. Kids take notice. Learn the game and have a position. You're more valuable when you limit your weaknesses. I love A.I.'s heart but you get the Hatten's, N.Rob's, E.Gordon, W.Bynum's of teh world. If any of those above mentioned could play the 1. Man they'd have a chance of starting for anyone. It's Felton/Farmar/Crawford/. Just to name a few. Rose is TP mold w tons of leadership though. So far it works. Kemba Walker reminds me of Rose just not that tall and atheletic but w/ a tempo that just alters any game. Farmar isn’t as good as billed.

He is young. Need to keep learning from Fish, come off the bench when LA plays small quick guards. Shannon will end up taking Sasha's gig. Farmer needs to be careful talking about Fish. Fish be done stole on him and slammed his ass. Farmer has to stop forcing the ball and learn to keep his emotions in check. He is young.

Im quite sure that phil jackson would've loved to have used him more if he wasnt such a scrub. Fisher has BEEN in decline, not just this year. They drafted Farmar to be their PG of the future preferably by year 2 maximum. He's going into year 4, IF it's gonna happen for him it wont be in LA. He's gonna have to make a QUANTUM leap to nearly the level that the other young stud PG's are playing at, and quite frankly i dont see it. LOL @ Farmar!

I got sooo tired of hearing, he is a shooter and will shoot his way out of it. I like the guy because I think he is a man amongst boys. The leader role is great and honestly I think he would do whats best for the team, which at this point is to back up Farmar in limited minutes and chest bump Kobe when he comes to the bench.

He's all used up, and last year's playoffs are proof. Two big shots don't change that. Jordan Farmar is the heir-apparent, but Shannon Brown's $2 mil is symbolic of his role in the Laker lineup. Jordan says he wants to continue to "push" Fisher; eventually Brown will be the one "pushing" Farmar, possibly pushing him back onto the bench. stevie o (post 27) got it right about Derek Fisher.
