feltons overrated. i'd put lowry and wall and maybe even agustine over him and calderon..(as of today)

in my opinion lowry is one of the more complete pgs in the league.. plays defense LIKE a chris paul..(not as good) hustles for rebounds like a Rondo (not as good) shoots threes like a curry (not as good, but just as if not more clutch) and distributes like a nash (not as good) but has all of those peices which most pgs lack..

a lot of nba analysts consider rondo and rose extremely over rated point guards, because of their outside game. clearly lowry doesnt match their game but has everything that those guys lack..

im gonna stick to my case.. if lowry played for even someone like the magic.. he would easily be considered a top five.. theres not much to distribute to in houston other than kevin martin.. but he pumpfakes so much that it takes away from lowrys assist numbers.. the only reason chuck hayes EVER scores is off of rebounds

maybe i over value him because our lack of great players..
but i have a gut feeling that at some point were going to let him go to a serious contender and he's going to dominate...

I'm going to say you might be just a little.

Both Lowry and Nash played 75 games, in those 75 Nash had 355 more assists while shooting a much much better percentage. Lowry shouldn't be in the same paragraph as Nash when it comes to distributing the ball.

Far as rebounding and Rondo, I'll say that's a complete toss up. But for a guy who no one says has a shooting game, he shot 50 points higher than Lowry did last season. He also played in 7 fewer games than Lowry and still gave 250 more assists.

Curry shot 44% from 3 point, Lowry 37%, 7% difference is a ton.
