Would you want to pay $6-7 mil a year for a guy who:

*Shoots 38% from the field and 30% from the 3
*Routinely gets abuse on the defensive end guarding quicker, bigger players (more on Sloan than Fisher, IMO)
*Is 33 and shows signs of getting worse, not better

I wouldn't.

However, I would pay $6-7 mil a year for a guy who:
*Shoots 57% from the field and 64% from the 3
*Averages 3.5 steals per game

I'd probably pay double that if he could keep those stats up.

When seeing why Jazz fans weren't happy with Fisher, his play last year was nowhere near what he did it was this year, especially against the Jazz in the playoffs.
