Derek Fisher's Bio-Chrono Reading:

PHYSICALLY: Derek Fisher primarily processes his physical world mentally. This process is known as "confidence".

Confidence orientated people are also highly competitive people. They are "mind over matter" types. When they are confidence and focused, they are able to will their bodies to perform feats that other types are not capable of, and in competition they have a bit of meanness about them. They gain joy more from beating their opponents than winning, if that makes sense.

The downside of being mentally orientated physically is that if they are not in a good place, particularly socially, they can literally will themselves into sickness and injury. During these times they also can be surprisingly insecure, even paranoid. Feeling this way is EXTREMELY painful for them and they feel rather helpless.

When confident, it's the opposite. They feel they can take on the world, and usually can.

To promote Derek Fisher's physical health, challenge him. Promote his competitive nature, set high goals for him, express confidence in him, and provide solid social support.

EMOTIONALLY: Derek Fisher primiarily processes his emotions physically. This process is known as "enthusiasm" and it is also heavily influenced by the state of his physical health.

Enthusiasm orientated people like to personally express themselves without over-processing their experience. They enjoy being spontaneous and the ebullient positive emotions of others. Expressiveness is very important to them, as well as being in the moment.

They find that when others heavily analyze their communication before expressing it to be distasteful. They rather like people who are just "real" with their feelings, even if those feelings are only "real" in the moment and may change drastically at another time.

When enthusiasm orientated people are in a negative state, they emotionally shut down. To them it feels like they are dead inside and that grave-like inner world is EXTREMELY painful for them. They are all about feeling and being numb disconnects them from their inner self and it is very difficult for them to function.

To promote Derek Fisher's emotional health let him express himself, don't overly question his intent, be enthusiastic, appreciate his enthusiasm for whatever it is (even if you disagree with whatever it is that he's enthusiastic about), be spontaneous around him, and be "real" in your personal relationships with him.

MENTALLY: Derek Fisher primarily experiences his mental world mentally. This process is known as "respect".

{Kobe is the same way.}

For respect orientated people, they need to be important and respected as such. When in a healthy social environment and treated with respect, respect orientated people are very respectful towards other people, highly intelligent in their decision-making, and objective in their analyses.

They also tend to have advanced social skills.

Respect orientated people are tricky. Despite their intelligence and yearning for objectivity, they are highly sensitive to disrespect and when feeling as if they have been disrespected (or their importance unacknowledged) they have a tendency to be HIGHLY judgemental and disrespectful towards others.

They also HATE to be judged by others. It drives them nuts.

On the court, if Derek doesn't feel he has been sufficiently respected, he will try to embarass his opponent and will play mind games with them.

To best support Derek Fisher's mental health he needs to be important in his social group and have the support of his social group. He needs to feel and be respected. Information should be a presented in an "objective" manner to him so that Derek can make his own judgements about the situation. It should also be communicated that he is highly valued and that his opinion is important to others.

SPIRITUALLY/CREATIVELY: Derek Fisher processes his creative world emotionally. So, like Pau Gasol and Kobe Bryant he is "enlightenment" based.

The reason why Kobe and Derek get along as well as they do is because they have the same mental and creative processes. Therefore they "get" each other.

For further information on "enlightenment" processes, please read my earlier post on Pau Gasol's spiritual process.

{However, I think in Pau Gasol's post, I may have over-emphasized the selfish element of enlightenment-orientated people. While this is true, when enlightenment-orientated people are in a positive, free, and internally peaceful state, they are also highly compassionate towards other people. I just wanted to make that part clear.}

To best support Derek Fisher's creative/spiritual health the same advice is accurate for Pau Gasol as it is for Derek Fisher; however, Derek Fisher will gain benefit out of group meditation and mental focus drills than Pau Gasol would.

GO LAKERS!

FROM PALM BEACH, FL

HI GUYS,

I HAVE BEEN ON THE PRAYERS FOR OUR TEAM AND OUR MVP. I SEND SOME ENERGY TO MY MAN TO HEAL HIS LOWER-BACK AND I FEEL HE WILL DO A BETTER JOB TONIGHT.

THAT GAME TONIGHT, I SENSE THAT WILL BE LIKE THE ONE WE BEAT THE SPURS FOR THE FINAL'S SEASON. EVERY PLAYER WILL BRING THE ENERGY WITH STRENGH AND PASSION TO BACK UP KOBE AND WIN THE GAME. REMEMBER, THEY HAVE A COMMON WISH= CHAMPIONSHIP=5TH GAME=MUST WIN. WE BELIEVE THEY WILL MAKE US PROUD OF THEM.

WE WANT THAT WIN TONIGHT PERIOD. KEEP THE POSITIVE ENERGY HIGH IN THE BLOGG AND OUR DESIRE WILL BE GRANTED.

WE WANT, WE WANT, WE WANT= WIN#3

BLESSINGS AND LOVE TO OUR TEAM AND TO ALL

A CE SOIR

SHEKOBE

I think we need to get Mbenga more minutes with the second team. He can rebound and block shots and he gives us good minutes when he's in. Big body down low when D-Will uses Farmar would deter some of those shots from falling.

Trevor Ariza's Bio-Chrono Reading:

PHYSICALLY: Trevor Ariza experiences his physical life spiritually/creatively. Thus, he is "attraction" based like Pau Gasol.

I forgot to mention that attraction orientated people have strong, precise senses of smell. So things like aromatherapy have a more beneficial impact upon them than they do for others, and this would also be the case for Trevor.

EMOTIONALLY: Trevor experiences his emotional life emotionally. This process is known as "appreciation".

Trevor Ariza's individuality is very important to him and needs to be acknowledged for his emotional health. He is emotionally stimulated in a positive way by unique, "special" things and the individuality of others expression.

When feeling good about himself, Trevor is very polite and likes to point out the little things that others do that make them special. He is also very appreciative of others' postiive treatment of him and when they acknowledge little things about him that are "special" or different (in a positive way).

Now, when Trevor feels he is not being sufficiently acknowledged or appreciated, or that people don't "get" him, or have put him in some broad category, or ignore hiim... he gets easily resentful. This means he has a temper that can be hairtrigger. Here's the thing about appreciation orientated people, though they get easily angry, they don't dwell on it (like trust orientated people do). They express their anger, often with an intense vitriol, and then they're done with it. However, for others this can sometimes be difficult to deal with and in personal relationships, they may feel like their some walking on eggshells.

Despite appreciation-orientated people's temper, they don't like angry people, because it reminds them too much of what it feels like when they are in a state of emotional discord.

To support Trevor Ariza's emotional health, acknowledge and appreciate (even celebrate) his individuality. When he does something well, or differently in an effective way, point it out. Be positive! Express your personal individuality around him. Share those little differences that make an experience, location, event, or group special with him. If he needs to vent, let him vent. Be appeciative and gracious when around him. He will also be positively stimulated in a special way by the experience of new, innovative art, music, and creative works.

MENTALLY: Trevor Ariza primarily processes his mental world physically. This process is known as "knowledge and learning" and is like that of Pau Gasol's.

SPIRITUAL/CREATIVE: Trevor Ariza primiarily processes his spiritual/creative world emotionally. This process is known as "enlightenment" and is like that of Derek Fisher and Kobe Bryant's.

That is Trevor Ariza.

GO LAKERS!

With all due respect, and I mean a lot of respect when I say this, but Pat Riley should rank higher than Mitch.

I just can't believe Riley found a guy to take the big cement block off of his neck!

Absolutely amazing.

Somebody,

What the F happened to Farmar? It can't be some kind of wall, can it? He's played too well for too long.

Somebody tell him to snap out of it, please?

I'm still looking for Vlad. I heard a rumor that he might actually come to this game.

--Fearless

Riley should have been the GM of the year.

He dumped the leagues worst contract on the Suns and got an allstar in return.

Miami now has a bright future. Phx, not so bright.

Its the stuff, legends are made of.

TOKE TOKE TOKE....AAAAAAHHHHHH...TOKE TOKE TOKE...WHOOOOOOOOSH!!!
ENJOY ALL!!!!!!!!

Yeah, maybe what we really need is an I Believe in Jordan bandwagon. Kid's gonna need to show up.

This information was noted from the 4-Letter Network radio program earlier this afternoon:

* Some Utah Jazz "fans" were heard screaming CANCER when Derek Fisher had the ball or was attempting free-throws.

* A particular Utah Jazz "fan" was observed covering his/her Right Eye and SCREAMING when Derek Fisher was at the free-throw line.

Stephen Jackson (from the Golden State Warriors) claimed that some Utah Jazz "fans" continually shouted Racial Slurs towards him (and his teammates) during last season's playoffs.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING -- AND NOT IN A POSITIVE WAY EITHER

Does this help connect the dots? Does this help to explain why Tracy McGrady says he HATES the Utah Jazz crowd? These sub-human Utah LOSERS give new meaning to the words vicious and mean-spirited !!!

P&GR

Newble hasn't played because he SUCKS! Don't kid yourselves, just because he has a Laker uni on, doesn't mean he's gotten any better. He's an insurance policy against the ridiculous odds that Sasha, Radmanovic AND Luke Walton all go down and can't play. Ariza, who hasn't played in months is still a better option for 5-10 minutes a game than Newble. All Newble does is give us somebody who can practice hard without worrying about wearing themselves out for the game.

Mitch should have been first!!!! Or Riles!!!! I can dig that!

But freakin cry baby Danny Ainge? I can still see that face he used to make every time he got called for a foul. Like if he just bit into a lemon or something. I guess he can have a little credit for making Boston relevant again. I mean, after all, we're on our third "rebuild" heading towards a title. And Boston is finally, FINALLY back to being considered a legit contender after what, like 20 years?

Nice tie in to Big Shot Rob though. One of my favorite Horry shots was the one were he threw the towel in Ainges face. Priceless!

justanothermambafan,

That was "Xodus," NOT "Ex"!!

I hate it when that happens!!!

That exec of the year award was actually awarded to the three headed leprocaun DannyKevinLarry..........Ainge coiuldn't have done it by himself.

Jon K

Great posts on Pau and D-Fish..........Thanks!

justanothermambafan,

I meant someone at the three. Unless we wanna go to our Fish, Sasha, Kobe three guard lineup full time.

dpk,

I don't see the Lakers trading LO and I don't see Miami taking Vlad's crappy deal. Miami wants cap space next summer.

actually, that is true, isn't it? LOL! In the third game, didn't Sasha have an injured toe, Radmanovic had a meltdown and Luke strained his ankle or something like that?

I can see poor Phil looking down the bench, then pausing thinking of any other possible option, then looking back again and saying, "Newble! get in there!" and then rubbing his temples...

Hey, could somebody tell Farmar to guard the guy with the ball tonight? Don't shadow them at a bad angle, don't overplay so they blow by, just stay in front of them, let them shoot jump shots but none of this blow by for a layup or dish for a dunk stuff.

aint got no....
