Everybody just looks at his scoring, but as he's developed into that player he is now, a lot of it is just his presence. That helps our team. It gives us energy and gives us aggressiveness, gives us the ability to do certain things out on the floor.
More Quotes from Derek Fisher:
You see arguably our best player going out there to do everything he can possibly do to win a game even though his ankle is probably still a little bit sore. I hope that it does make the rest of us feel like we have to do something to help.Derek Fisher
I definitely believed that we could get that stop down the stretch. It wasn't that they didn't have enough time to get the shot off, but I felt like we kept fighting and we were going to be able to get that last stop and take it to overtime and pull it out.

I don't know and I guess I've been around too long to say we deserved it when we didn't win. The team that wins oftentimes deserves to win, so you can't take credit away from them for continuing to make plays down the stretch. I'm very proud of the effort of our basketball team that we put out there tonight. It's frustrating because we've been in this position so many times this season.

We had an opportunity to win. That's what you want to do in this league. You can't plan on how you're going to get to the end of the game - whether you're going to be up five, down five, up 15 or down 15.
Derek Fisher
I allowed my teammates to do what they do. The key to our success tonight was balance and the fact that everyone was able to get comfortable on offense.
Derek Fisher
We know that we aren't playing our best basketball, but we've done enough to win games. What would feel real good is to get the game in Chicago. I think that would really show a lot of growth on our part if we can stay focused and disciplined enough to get that game.
