wait, where's the hating? i must have missed it in the thread Are you saying NBA.com had the numbers of Lowry and Dragic wrong?
I think it would have been interesting to have Dragic on this team, Left handed PG/SG/PF (2 of them). Lowry already said he wouldn't play under McHale and who knows how effective Dragic would've have been playing along side a ball dominating SG. Might've have worked, might not have worked. I remember reading that Dragic wanted a 4th year added to the contract and Morey wasn't having any of that.

Word, you got me there. Should've researched But, my other challenge remains. Can any of these two make that kind of numbers on this Rockets team? My point is a players production is decided by many factors. As a team though, I think we made the right decisions in letting them go. Because of that, we now have two of the best players in their positions on our team. Our team is fundamentally better.
No you are probably right, who knows really, Maybe if Dragic had stayed McHale would've benched him for Beverley
If Dragic stayed I'm almost sure Dragic will get the "Lin" treatment as well. But Dragic is clearly the better player. What a team that would be!

Those aren't the minutes he averages. He is averaging 31 minutes so far this season. During the Rockets' 3-0, Lin's minutes are 44, 37 and 29. Hardly being held back, if that's what you are insinuating.
Dang, why the pics of Lin? Can't we just be happy for those guys without crapping on our BACKUP PG? People are unreal.
