no $H1T you're comparing two guys. like i said, I agree with you. I think Dragic is a better player, and he thus far he has proven himself to be consistently productive when given a lot of minutes. and he has more upside than Lowry. I'm not arguing with you over who is the better player, eveything you have said, I agree with. I'm simply saying that you are acting ungrateful towards Klow7. that's it. Regardless of who is the better player, Lowry is still the reason why were in playoff contention, im sure if Dragic had started since the beginning of the season he would have put up similar numbers to Lowry if not better..but we can't deal in assumptions, as far as we know it, Lowry has been the most productive Rockets this season, he deserves credit for that. and it seems like you're not giving it to him.
I think both Lowry and Dragic are terrific. I'll feel bad to see either guy go, but at this point I think I would pick Dragic for the future. We're going to get to see a lot more of Dragic the rest of the year to see if he can keep up his solid play, and I'm looking forward to it. We let Lin slip away before we knew what we had, I really hope we don't let Dragic slip away. I think the only way Dragic would remain with the Rockets is if he's the starter. I wonder what Lowry would net us in a trade? I don't really want to trade Lowry, but I'd hate to see one of our point guards walk away and we get nothing in return.
I'd love to keep both Lowry and Dragic. I'd reduce Lowry's minutes to 30-32 I think he will be more efficient in games and not get so tired. Because we have all seen that Lowry has looked tired at times due to to many minutes. Then Dragic gets 16-18 mins at pg, then I would also play dragic at the SG position for 12-15mins. So he should end up with 30 mins or so. I think it would be great if Dragic could be our quality 6th man
Lol next year it might be "Dragic v Llull" (kidding). Lowry is the safer choice since he is under contract. Even if we do deal Lowry, Goran can still easily bolt (and I would not blame him since we have 4 different starting PGs to start the season over the past 4 seasons). If we trade Lowry AND Goran walks, it could spell disaster for us. I think Goran is and will be a better PG BUT Lowry is really really good (considered by many as an All-Star snub this year) and still young/improving (he has improved in every season in which we have had him and has many areas he can improve on).
Honestly it's weird how fast we turn on players here lol... Lowry is actually quite good. And we have him at a great price. Maybe we should trade goran while his value is high, he's getting a nice showcase right now. Package him with martin. Really, I'm just curious about llull. But I know he won't come over if lowry is here
with so many good pg's right now I think we'll be able to sign dragic for cheaper than you think. I doubt Morey would let a KNOWN asset walk out of the door like that.
I don't think most people have turned on Lowry... DD was already against him so that's no difference. It's just that logic states, Lowry is the one who can bring back a top player, and Dragic can probably only be re-signed if Lowry is gone.
Wait, so you are the guy hating on stats like PER and yet you base your argument by saying Dragic has better stats as a starter?!?! Please stop contradicting yourself. Also, it is a VERY SMALL sample size btw... I love Dragic and Lowry. Please just try to enjoy watching Goran play well instead of turning this into some idiotic debate on who is better.
I am using the language that people I am in discussions with will understand. I can tell by watching the games he is better. DD
Yes, he was better in the MIP season than Lowry was, sure, but not once he got hurt. But it is ok to disagree with me and think the opposite, we all have different views of basketball, and different experiences or understandings of the game. We don't all have to agree, I am ok with that. DD
Trade Lowry! - Value is high right now - Count Goran Dracula is Equal at the least. Plus he will not suck our blood like Lowry is right now. - We can package Scola, Martin, Lowry for someone real good.
