Fisher can live with miss

| | Comments (0) |

Derek Fisher said he wasn't about to let his missed jump shot at the buzzer Thursday night deter him from taking other big shots in tight situations. Fisher shanked what would have been the game-winning basket and the Boston Celtics held on to win. Fisher said after the game: "If you're confident in yourself and you know your teammates are confident in you, if you're open, you take the shot and live with the consequences. That wasn't the type of shot that I would like to get, but if there's anybody else on the team that is willing to take whatever (heat) comes with it, it's me. I just wish we would have won the game. I'll take anything individually, as far as my stats, as long as we win the game."
