This makes me happy...as I am 100% against giving Fisher the full MLE or most of it. I'd rather spread it out with Damon Jones and someone like Rodney White or Mo'Pete, or use it to gamble on a RFA like Etan Thomas(we have no shot at Stro).
The Sonics' pursuit of Derek Fisher lacks the drama of Fisher's miracle last-second shot against the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA playoffs.
But with only two days until teams can start signing free agents, the Sonics are thought to be making a push for the Lakers' unrestricted free-agent point guard. Fisher, 6 feet 1, was scheduled to visit Seattle this weekend. It is believed that he was in town yesterday. Free agents can begin signing contracts on Wednesday.
