I believe the whole "trust, but verify" thing, but have not been able to do so. My guess is that you are not giving a specific time in the second quarter if you are making this stuff up. I'm not a Lowry hater, nor am I on the Dragic bandwagon, they are both good players, but something has messed with the team chemistry in the last four games. I thought it may just be just the two point guards deferring to each other, but that was just pulling things out of thin air. This could explain a lot. Our guys have been playing over their heads. Our big three have been down and out, down and out and back, and down. Plus the loss of Hayes. We have a rookie looking good, some really serviceable 5's brought in, and last year's backup who has admirably stepped in, but if we don't run balls to the wall, there is no playoff run. It may already be too late. We had something going, and if some Philly dog with an attitude has led to an epic choke, we can move the year of the dragon to 2013 as far as I am concerned.
Lowry is the better PG when healthy, and he needs to get healthy for next season. I say start him. Let's take a look at the reason's why: Some people like to make the claims outlined below- "Lowry isn't as big as Dragic." Yes, but being bigger doesn't mean better. "Dragic is faster than Lowry." Uhhh.. no. Maybe running from one end of the court to the other, but he certainly isn't quicker than Lowry (in terms of making quick moves in the paint). "Dragic is more athletic than Lowry." Well, he can dunk, but other than that, he hasn't been "more athletic?" He's taller which is why he can dunk. Not sure he's more athletic otherwise. "Dragic is a better passer." No, lol, definitely not. "Dragic is a better defender." Not that I've noticed. Lowry is much better at impacting shots, especially in the paint. He even blocks some. "Dragic is a better shooter." Yes, he's a better shooter, but not by much. Lowry has carried this team to many wins earlier in the season. When has Dragic had an 18 assist game? How many times has he scored 30+? Dragic just hasn't shown the ability to simply put the team on his back and take over the game. He has hit clutch shots, but only when assisted by others. He has been good, but he has not shown me that he can be a better PG than Lowry. He doesn't have the toughness Lowry has, not the same nose for the ball. I'd rather have a healthy Lowry as my PG. Dragic is a good backup.
Are you by chance Hellen Keller? Jesus man do you even watch basketball? What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this forum is now dumber for reading it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Don't think he's liked him all year. Neither has Martin. Maybe they don't think he's a real coach. Can you really say otherwise? I mean they went from Rick to Kevin McHale. I don't think McHale has done a bad job, but from a player's perspective, that's a pretty steep dropoff.
Not being a internet tough guy but nice try bro. Just saying your both stoned out of your mind if you think lowry is better then dragic. Lowry is good ive always liked him, but he is nowhere near goran.
I'm just telling it like it is. Our record with Dragic starting is 11-12. Not impressed. He hasn't been the leader that Kyle was earlier in the season.
Well can you disprove my points? I'm all ears "bro." Let's start with this: Record with Goran starting: 11-12 Record with Kyle starting: 21-17
If record is all you got then your argument holds no weight at all. Kyle is not a leader..a leader gets the team involved and makes them better. Which Goran does..kyle pouts,puts up stupid shots,constantly tripping and falling down,flops like crazy and crys to the refs..its terrible..its like watching chris paul, and i ****ing hate chris paul! ALSO kevin was playing then..yes hes been in a slump but still he is our top scorer on the team.
K. Ignore the recent slump which started when Lowry came back and shave four losses off and suddenly Goran's record is 11-8.
**** him if this is true! Trade him along with any other TMac attitudes. I'm sick of these entitled players. None of them are worth it no matter how good they are.
Record isn't all I've got. I'd love to have Chris Paul on my team, lol. I hate him, but he's a damn good PG. Kyle is frustrated now because he isn't 100%.
Well if you ignore the slump where we lost a few game in a row due to Kevin Martin sucking Lowry's record looks a lot better too. It is what it is.
