    Why would that be the case?

    How many games did Lowry start before earning the starting job?

    About the same as Dragic has now, right?

    Jesus Christ can you leave it alone for once.

    You've been b****ing about the whole Lowry taking Brooks' starting job since last season and for the past few months you've been constantly nagging and whining. Thank God you reduced your posting habits I couldn't imagine what would happen to this board if you were spamming the way you used to.

    Completely different scenario between the two cases that you somehow continue to want to contrast. Get a clue.

    LOL - so all the people who were ok with the Lowry switch are now whining about Dragic doing pretty much the same thing.

    Got it.

    Clue - solved.

    There was a difference though.... Brooks played the last season very poorly....
    Lowry had a great start and did drop off due to fatigue, injuries, and off court battery of female refs.. whatever reasons
    Lowry still played like the best or second best player during that stretch
    He does not look so good is because Martin his partner is playing like crap half of times.

    Major difference!

    Dragic shooting well... and doing things the right way.
    But all in all.... Courtney is helping more than Martin was helping Lowry.

    When facts tell you otherwise, you ignore it and keep barking.

    I have no problem with Dragic remaining a starter until Lowry gets healthy and works his way off the bench. In fact, I would rather Lowry work his way off the bench because if he is a deserving starter then he would prove it.

    To add more to that Dragic did not outplay Lowry off the bench, Lowry on the other hand was outplaying Brooks' off the bench.

    Furthermore Brooks' was b****ing when he refused to work his way off the bench, he quit on his team and was traded. You were b****ing that the organization never gave Brooks' the chance to recover.

    I love how you were giving some McGrady fans a hard time a couple of years back when they thought that RA should give him more minutes.

    You were on the "work for your minutes" train and you even made a thread about it.

    http://rafer.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=179379

    All of a sudden when your boy Brooks has to go through the same thing you hold a grudge against the organization and Lowry

    For that matter, a lot of people, including me, were aware that Lowry could have been on a hotstreak. It's the fact that he maintained that level that people stopped calling it a fluke.

    You've been on Lowry's case for the last year about how his play was merely a hot streak, and now you are singing a different tune for Dragic.

    Heck, you were b****ing about Dragic when we traded for him. You were calling him inferior to Brooks' in every conceivable way and what not.

    Add some consistency to your persona, I could literally use your past quotes to argue against you.

    I am just pointing out the bull**** hypocrisy of folks saying it is a short sample size, when it was completely the same thing in the other situation.

    I am not saying they were wrong, clearly in the previous situation it turned out ok, but now, that the role is reversed and their favy player is the one that is being completely outplayed by his backup, the role is reversed.

    I find it fundamentally ****ing hilarious...and now to watch them squirm and scream that situations are different and hem and haw about the differences, and ignore the similarities.

    ****ING HI-LAR-IOUS !

    One last thing, Dragic is the better athlete, has better court vision, is a better creator, and is a better overall PG than Lowry - time to move Lowry for a better piece..and keep the better player.

    What is the definition of your 'completely outplayed'?
    Lowry had his share of games of 20+, two or three 30+ points even with 10+ assists. He was nationally recognized as the sub of Nash or Parker if any of those were to miss the Allstar game.

    Hilarious.

    "It's not the same, here is why".

    "IT IS THE SAME".

    "No, because facts x and y say something different."

    "IT IS THE SAME"

    "Okay, fine, let's just assume it's the same. A lot of people doubted Lowry, it's only fair it's done for Dragic as well"

    "IT IS THE SAME AND YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE".

    "Okay, let's just say Lowry should also work his way off the bench".

    "****ING HILARIOUS... HYPOCRITICAL YOU ALL JUST HATE BROOKS CAUSE HE LOOKS LIKE CHRIS ROCK.".

    Bull****, nationally recognize as the sub of Nash - LOL - WTF does that mean?

    Nationally recognized...I mean honestly.

    Lowry is no "WHO DAT" he can play, he is a good PG, Dragic is just better.

    Point out my hypocrisy.

    Seriously. 100$ to the tip jar if you can't do it. And I'll donate 100$ if you can.

    If you are saying Dragic is a much better than Lowry who is a borderline allstar... then you are saying Dragic is a star or borderline superstar.....

    In that case he is gone....because Morey won't pay him near max money.

    Then Morey should be gone.

    The best GM's keep talent, they do not let them walk for nothing, that is what GM's that are not all that good do.

    Another BULL**** statement.

    I am clearly a hypocrit, and admit it...the difference is, I admit it.
