Defying Analytics in the Draft: Derek Fisher Retrospective

4 of 5

If there is one play that encapsulates Derek Fisher’s career, it is this one play in 2010.

He gets the ball.  He catches the Celtics by surprise.  The numbers are against him. He gets by All-NBA defender Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, and Glen Davis.  His arm doesn’t go beyond the length of the three defenders.  But, he gets the shot off, and gets fouled.  He makes the free throw.
