    Are people forgetting that Lowry practically hated McHale?

    Exactly.

    Morey's body language and demeanor after the draft tells me there is NOTHING to worry about in getting Dwight the max offer.

    He's a better rebounder and defender, but not a better distributor. Their shooting is very close, actually and you could argue Lin is on the upswing, much the same way Kyle was able to do (with his shooting).

    And Lin is a FAR better teammate than Lowry. That ship has sailed.

    As someone just mentioned, his relationship with McHale isn't the greatest also.

    I thought we would only trade TRob if we were for sure getting Dwight. Now I'm not so sure...

    What is the point in trading T-Rob before getting a verbal commitment from Dwight?
