-----------------------

Derek Fisher: The end of Derek Fishers’ playing career may not be as near as once thought. Fisher who reached a contract buyout with Houston on Sunday is considering overtures from Miami and from Oklahoma City.

The Thunder are in need of a veteran backup to All-Star Russell Westbrook, while the HEAT do not seem ready to put their title dreams in the hands of either Mario Chalmers or rookie Norris Cole.

Sources say there is an offer from the Lakers to join the basketball operation staff, however such a move would require Fish to retire and sources near Fish say he is not ready to hang them up just yet.

Fisher who reportedly opted-out of the final $3.4 million he was owed, basically surrendering that money to the Rockets to gain his release, still wants to play according to sources.

Fisher will clear waivers on Thursday, and has several offers he is considering.

Good to know we did our part...

My problem with erek Fisher for the past 4 years is that he's more a politician than a basketball player. Lakers offered him this job 2 years ago

Would be perfect - he could teach Sessions the offense/defense...don't see him ready to stop playing, though.

I'd like it. You could tell the Lakers really missed Fish's leadership on Sunday.
