    I agree with you there for sure. There are times that the Rockets relegate to Lowry isolation offense because nobody is showing up on the court.

    And yes you probably shouldn't defend DD's point, upon further evaluation I don't think he's stupid enough to be serious about his point. That was flat out attention whoring.

    But yes, Lowry is definitely top 10, I would put him even higher if he keeps this up.

    It's a trap. You never know with DD.... he is hard to predict.

    AB wishes he could pass Rebound and was as efficient as Lowry. AB Couldn't Tie Lowry's Shoes right now

    I couldn't watch the fourth quarter. I had visitors and apparently missed one helluva game. Bashing my head against the wall as we speak...

    AB is so much better than Lowry... Lowry just gets luckier because people make shots whe
    He passes to them and Lowry makes lucky shots.

    If AB wasn't in China, he would probably be in the MVP running right now
    just kidding, Aaron Brooks is garbage...I wish my moniker was KLOWforPresident...I would also marry Kyle...I love him..

    If you haven't already, you can watch the espn recap, he looks pretty casual while making it: http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=320114010

    I had the same problem with ILP. At first I was like WTF *** ***** but then it was soon alright after finding out we came from behind. :grin:

    As I recall, didn't we lose every single OT game we played last year? I started to dread OT's with Adelman. He'd draw up some weak play that would fail every time.

    You think Lowry would be happy with limited minutes and a loss?

    One thing that jumped out at me, besides the great games by Lowry, Martin, And Chase, were the plays drawn up by McHale and company to start the OT, and during the last timeout in overtime, both involving Kevin Martin. Nice play calling, and excellent execution. Martin looked the best I've seen him in a long time. Maybe he's gotten over the deal that wasn't.

    LOL okay man whatever you say. i usually don't see lowry take a bad shot. especially from beyond the arc. brooks wishes he was as efficient as lowry. he also wishes that he was able to rebound and pass like lowry. i see no similairty between the 2 players at all. brooks liked to jack up shots. while lowry likes drive, penetrate, pass it to teammates, play defense, rebound the ball, and pretty much be a bad@$$. in other words LOWRY>>>>>>>>>aaron "bricks" brooks

    Just finished watching the game on my DVR. GREAT hustle game and a gut check win for us we needed. Lowry beasting again and Budginger with a decent game.

    One of the weirdest officiated games of the year. Not unfair...just weird and you could tell it affected our team and of course the rotation having Scola, Dally, and Parsons in foul trouble.

    And then there was Batum. Holy crap. That kid is a helluva defender. I've never seen someone block FOUR fast break layups before in a game. And i've been watching NBA ball since the 70's. Fabulous game for him. How did we let that guy go?!?!?!

    Dont like the idea of isolating lowry right from the start.... dont doubt that he can get a shot off, but he's not good enough in that situation to just give it to him and have him wait out the clock to strike. I think they should work the ball around and see if a good shot can develop. If it doesn't, lowry can always come to the ball and i like his chances of scoring much better if the defense isn't set waiting for him.
