This. Who cares. It doesn't matter how Lowry/Dragic perform in their respective teams because they are not returning here, and the Suns/Raptors are not going to influence how far we go as a team. People should want Lin to bridge the gap, and continue to develop as a player.
Lowry has the lead in most advanced statistics, while Dragic's edge in some raw categories are attributed largely to his much higher USG% (Lowry has a much lower USG% than other top PGs, an underrated quality in today's league). The metrics also show that his defense is back to being amongst the best at his position, after slightly dipping for a season or two. Lowry is also #9 in the entire NBA in Win Shares, behind only Durant, Paul, LeBron, Love, George, Curry, Lillard and Griffin (and ahead of stars like Aldridge, A.Davis, Dirk and our very own Harden and Dwight). He's really having a masterful season on both ends. His %s always look average, but his TS% is always high due to his style of play high in 3FG and FT (ala Harden). He doesn't turn it over, and he moves the ball better than most other PGs (rather than dribbling the air out of it when there's nothing there).
I know Dragic is scoring the best out of the three ATM, but I'd still take Lowry any day of the week. Dude is a straight bulldog and we need someone like that on this team. Beverly is similar but Lowry is just a much, much better player. Miss the bowling ball.
I think all 3 guys are pretty much the same overall. Gotta wonder how Lowry or Dragic would do playing beside Harden. Most likely they would end up standing around waiting for Harden's pass that didn't come.
they would have similar numbers to lin here, except their t.os might be .5 less. It takes a change to your game playing within a teen wolf set. their assists would be down since everybody's three point shot has been down and how are they going to score what they score when they'd only take 9-10 shots. Both lin and gogi get to the line about the same. unless, they can find a way to make one basket 4 points, they're S.O.L but go on thinking they'd do better here. It's kind of clear that it isn't mchale that calls the isos, what makes you think harden would defer? because coach suggests it? ha. he is harden! another thing, D. The more lowry played the less effective he was. GOgi couldn't guard the pick and role hence got tortured in the last seven games causing us the 8th seed. when lin drops 30 and 25 pts again on these guys, like he did earlier this year and last season to gogi, nevermind. numbers don't mean a thing to you guys, unless they go against Lin.
Hmm well we had to trade Lowry to get Harden.. I think Lowry would fit in very well here. Depending on how much I had to give up, I'd consider.
I am not sure if lowery would go back to houston, this guy is daily on tv here in canada, something like kardshian's medica cover . Anyhow, i just watch the raptor kicking the Indiana Pacer, thanks mostly to lowry, he draw fouls against Hippert made awosome plays ,,,well let's sadly say he played like a point guard that we dont have now
"I don't think so," Lowry told the newspaper about playing under McHale. "I honestly think it would be tough. Things have to be addressed. The situation would have to be addressed. "If things aren't addressed coaching-wise, I guess I have to be moved."
Yep, saw Lowry and the Raptors kick @ss tonite. It's great that Lowry likes to be on TV but I'm sure the tanking Masai is not happy that Lowry is kicking @ss. I think Morey shouldn't let pride get in the way and should make a call to Masai. I know Lowry and McHale had beef but who cares, they're both professionals and we can all pray that McHale won't be here for long.
Dragic and Jeremy have very similar style, but Dragic does everything a little better. Lowry seems happy in Toronto and has been playing out of his mind lately. Not sure if he'd play like that if he's in Houston and unhappy.
