    Clutch said the same thing as the OP. Idiots.

    Let me explain my statement.

    I'd rather keep the better and cheaper player in Lowry.... unless trading him leads to moving up in this year's draft.

    I wouldnt. Lowry is not gonna be the better player. He will be cheaper and older. When you lose Dragic? Worse team than trading Lowry to get something back to go with Dragic who is around the same as Lowry for slightly more money.

    Lowry does seem to have somewhat of a sour attitude. He used to be "happier". He obviously had some negative things happen, but still.

    When both are on top of their game, Dragic is better. Better playmaker, more consistent shooter, better attitude, better defender.

    I wouldn't give Lowry away, but if you can either get value or clear up cap space for some greater need, then trading Lowry is a no-brainer.

    This is what you get to make it very clear to understand VERY CLEAR FOR CLUTCHFANS.

    Lowry keep situation:
    Lowry plus cheaper contract
    Lose Dragic and regress

    Keep Dragic and trade Lowry:
    Dragic for a slightly higher contract
    Trade Lowry for a player possible
    trade Lowry for a pick possible
    Team possibly improves somewhere else on the roster

    Only Morey fans want to save you money at all costs instead of improving.

    WHY THE **** IS EVERYONE ON THIS TEAM A LITTLE b****. Kyle Lowry is butt hurt, Martin is butt hurt, this whole team could easily get butt hurt over any small ****.

    I would love to keep Dragic and trade Lowry for an upgrade at another position. But honestly I don't see that happening.

    The funny thing is that we are even having this discussion. At the beginning of the season many clutch fans was saying Lowry was a top 5 PG, and that they would take him over D Will. As I said then, anyone can play at an all-star level and top player at their position for a good spell (couple of months), but can they sustain it. I guess we will wait and see what happens next year, if he's here are not.

    Lowry will be the one that will be dealt and the Blazers will be happy to have him. Dragic is more of PG and being under Nash those years help his game. Lowry, I wish him well with his new team.

    Players like other people tend to get frustrated when they face injuries and off season surgery.

    Sigh, never said he sucked, just didn't think he was a top tiered PG, but a step below.....

    You sir, are certainly not DaGreatest after all.

    Keep both of them. I've lost faith in our bench and Dragic has got to be fatigued with the way plays night in and night out and if he were to get hurt, I'd rather have Lowry back him up (or vice versa) than Big Earl even though he's been doing a good job. If one of them were to suck it up and play with the second unit, we'd be much more of a threat.

    I also liked the Dragic/Lowry backcourt we ran for a few minutes. Lowry was clearly not 100%, but the concept was intriguing against other small back courts.
