    Hey genius, the pick we traded Lowry for is what got us Harden.

    Lowry to start this season (omit the game he got injured in) has been better than any period either could dream of.

    Lowry is a top 10 PG.
    Dragic is top 15 PG.
    Lin is top 25 PG.

    Lowry
    Lin
    Dragic

    In that order.

    If you think Lin > Dragic, you're crazy. The only noticeable thing he has on him is age.

    (No order within the tiers)

    Tier 1: Paul, Rose, Rondo, Westbrook, Deron
    Tier 2: Parker, Kyrie, Nash, Lowry
    Tier 3: Lawson, Curry, Conley, Wall, Dragic, Holiday
    Tier 4: Rubio, Lillard*, Jennings, Teague, Collison
    Tier 5: G.Hill, Chalmers, Lin, Kemba, Nelson, Knight

    Oh yes imagine Lowry and Harden both criticizing McHale publicly instead of only Harden! Now that's an unified backcourt! /sarcasm

    Yeah I would take Lin over Dragic. I was watching the suns game & tweeting back & fourth with one of the Suns bloggers & he is advocating that Dragic start at the 2 & they start Kendal Marshall. The Suns team shoots a low % with him as a primary ball handler. Lin sets his teammates up for high % shots. In the 4th quarter alone he set Omer up for two shots at the rim (which he missed) & harden for a wide open corner 3 (which he missed). Those are the two most high percentage shots in the NBA. There is a reason why Morey wanted him.

    Lowry would be injured and be out for the season like he is now and Harden would be a blackhole on offense like he is now.

    What is your twitter? I think that's Dragic's problem, he still isn't much of a traditional PG, and other than that streak last year he isn't a great outside shooter either.

    So a backcourt that absolutely plays no defense?
