    Alright. That makes a whole lot more sense.

    none of these guys are as good of playmakers/controlling the offense as rafer, but on the other hand, they're much better shooters/scorers combined than rafer ever was.

    the good thing is brooks and lowry have had good games together in the SAME game. rafer and brooks never appear to have good games together.

    hopefully it'll continue.

    It does. I think the results of the trade are a plus and that both will continue to improve. Same thoughts as most of us here, IMO. Hopefully, the pair will be healthy and gelled by the playoffs. I've been amazed at how quickly Lowry has fit in.

    Its simple

    Rockets are better off in the long run

    They have two young point guards under the age of 25 who are only going to get better

    I think we can play matchups. Aaron can start, but we will use whoever performs better during the stretch to close out the games.

    Adelman should be happy that this option is now available to him.

    Lowry seems to be a better playmaker to me. He seems better than Rafer at passing to Landry, Wafer and Yao.

    Landry has been awesome with catching Lowry's passes.
