    Lowreeey played his first significant minutes today, going 5/6.

    I thought he looked a lot slower than before, which is probably expected. He can't really create enough space for those step backs anymore, nor can he really beat his man off the dribble. But I think all that is just part of being getting back in shape.

    But he still has shooting touch, which is great to see. I thought he looked good running the offense with Goran playing the 2 so the defense can't really zone in on one of them.

    Can't wait til he gets his quickness back come playoff time, I really think Lowry and Dragic is going to cause havoc whoever we play.

    Aside from his play, can't help but think he helps the confidence of the guys out there with him, Lowry just doesn't know the meaning of quit, whether it's playing balls out or arguing with the officials. He's definitely the most animated player out there, and this team needs that.

    Not a knock on Dragic, but I feel a certain confidence when Kyle is out there, like we can always can get back in the game, even if we're getting blown out.

    oh, Lowry looked great 2nd game back after a month layoff. he kept in front of his assignments defensively, his rebounding ability & toughness are welcomed returns. his confidence, particularly in his shot, is a wip.

    great to see him back out there!

    he didnt too good in the first half but looked a lot better in the second half

    I am sure after like 3-4 more games he'll be much more comfortable and give Goran and Lee a lot more rest

    Lowgic looked pretty good out there, should utilize that backcourt more if we aren't terribly outsized.

    I love goran and what he's been doing, but so many people have written off Kyle based on a few mediocre outings mid season in a lockout shortened season.

    Do I want dragic to stay? Absolutely! But Kyle shouldn't be so easily disrespected

    He looked skinny, slow, and out of shape, but his passes were good and his shot was falling.

    Looked great. He knows he's still got some work to do to get himself in shape, so he played within himself and under control, but still played very hard on both ends. Damn good for just his second game back in a month.

    Looked great for only his second game back. His midrange game was on-point. 13 points on 5-6 (1-1 3PT), 4 boards, 3 dimes, a couple of steals, and he hit both of his FTs. Can't complain.

    looked great, but one thing that still bothers me is how much he complains to the refs ...

    Dragic + Lowry = Double Penetration. It is known.

    As much as I hate puns, this combo is Lowgical.
