I really don't think the stats tell everything about this kid. This is the first time in a very long time that I felt comfortable with him handling the ball and knowing that he will make the right decision.
cant wait to see him match up with deron williams. im positive lowry can run with the best pg's in the league.
He's playing great. I don't think he'll fall off much either- he's going to be consistently good. A sure starter on any team and maybe even an All-Star with better statistics. Morey is a genius. And Memphis is braindead.
Lowry fits Yao much better than AB. Yao scored 14 of his 20 points when Lowry was running the show, in just 12 minutes on 6/7 FG attempts. 6 points under AB on 2/9 shooting in 20 minutes. Brooks can't get Yao the ball where he needed and when he needed.
Lowry is very calm and collective on the court, something very rare for a player his age. It seems to me that he is holding back and is just trying to fulfill his role as a backup right now which is good since he is not forcing things and committing turnovers.
That's one area where he seems to have a clear advantage over Aaron. Consistency. Since Lowry joined the team, the Rockets have played 7 games. Aaron already has a 3-9 game, 1-7 game, and 2 2-9 games. Meanwhile, Lowry has hit at least 50% of his shots in 5 of the 7 games. Granted, he has played far fewer minutes.
Just bench AB. AB is efficiency when he benched. and he can play with Carl .they have lots of chemistry
I can't wait for the vids to come out so I can see what you guys are talking about haha. I'm really excited for this team...the games I did get to see I really enjoyed Lowry's execution.
I was upset when they traded Rafer but Kyle looks solid and strong plus he is young. Kyle and Aaron a great 1 - 2 punch
Memphis has OJ Mayo and Mike Conley running the show. They really had no room for Lowry. I also agree Lowry seems to be holding back a bit. He's trying to fit in but he's still playing great.
As a professional basketball player, KL can develop his outside shooting skill in two years if he works hard during the summer. Landry was not a good middle range jump shooter last year. Look how he is now. CP3 was not a good shooter either in his first two NBA career years.
Lowry is just fun to watch. He sees the court very well and makes great passes. He's also one of the main reasons our bench is so effective when they're all playing.
