He would be the oldest point guard in NBA history.

He's more of a shooting guard...

it'd be dumb NOT to sign him. he knows the triangle, can be a veteran leader in that locker room.

I anxiously await Phil signing him for the Knicks.

That wouldn't be awkward, would it?

Nah, Bob Cousy retired in 63, went on to coach the Cincinnati Royals, and then came back to play 7 games for the Royals in 1970.

Cousy was 41 and 150 days old -- Fisher is turning 42, so if he played he would be the oldest point guard ever.

Good god. It was bad enough when Jordan did a comeback but fish. Dude was a career role player (albeit one of the best).

Veteran leadership? Locker room chemistry? Value off the court maybe but not value on the court.

Kings need to sign him for veteran leadership and to be Matt Barnes' teammate.

Truthfully speaking D.fish is probably still better than Huertas


lol there's nothing truthful about that. Fisher was as bad or worse than Huertas three years ago.

Start him in the backcourt with DLO. It would confuse the other team, since their games are identical. (eyeroll)

That doesn't sound like a shoot down to me. He uploaded a clip of himself playing and he claims to be open to playing again. I think he is just afraid that no one will call and it will look like he was rejected.

Magic did.

He coached the Lakers on the 93/94 season, then played (with some of the players he coached) on the 95/96 season.
