Despite his recent success as a member of the Utah Jazz. A team which has so far this post season, made it to the Western Conference Finals. Guard Derek Fisher was asked questions regarding his earlier years as a Los Angeles Laker by J.A. Adande of the LA Times. Here is an excerpt from that column with Fisher’s responses:

“Professional sports, you know you’re not going to stay together forever,” Fisher said. “But it was so special what we were able to accomplish together as a group that a lot of times, even years removed, you still have to kind of stop and think like, ‘Man, what if? What if we had two or three more years together? Could we have won another three or four championships?’ ”

“Sometimes it just seemed like things were too complicated,” Fisher said. “Couldn’t we just focus on being the best team we could be? “I wish it could [have been] different at times so we could just focus on trying to win a championship.”

When you read quotes like this….you can’t help but think, “what if.”
