Lowry is a Pat Riley kind of PG, for what it's worth. I could see Riles being interested in him, especially with how horrible Miami's PGs have played in the Finals.

Don't see Lowry wanting to go to MIA
1.) No $
2.) Lowry doesn't want to be the 4th option
3.) Lowry loves this team and believes in it too much to go to out of all places, Miami

Sign and trade Lowry for LeBron then.
If this is a rumor, there should be a source. Otherwise, there is no point to discuss this.

Either he takes a big pay cut or the Heat guys take a pay cut, and I don't see them taking a pay cut for Kyle. They might do it for Melo, but not for Kyle. Riley is loyal guy, but he needs to get rid of Wade for them to win next year.

A Lowry that is not the dominant ball handler is an ineffective, uninspired Lowry.

I think he's more likely to take the larger contract.

MLe and he'll get paid the remainder of his balance under the table. Lowry would be the perfect fit too.

Only way I see this is if the big three opt out and Bosh bolts to be scone option somewhere. Then D Wade takes pay cut but Anthony still does not come and they go for KLow and a big with Bosh $.

The only time I've heard of Lowry to Miami was at the deadline but it was pretty clear it was false, but I think Miami did ask about him though.
Kyle Lowry(S&T) for Mario Chalmers and a 1st?
It's going to be an interesting NBA Offseason.

He is still not as good as Tony Parker. KL is TP lite. He should be paid that way as well, but we all know he is going to get more than TP next month.
I guarantee you it won't be from Miami. The Lakers could do it. I don't see the $10M owed to Nash as an obstacle for them.

After experiencing 4 electric home games in this years playoffs, he's gonna be underwhelmed by those "fans" in miami. In miami, he'd be playing for so much more, yet those "fans" have so little support to offer.
He'll definitely love how the crowd does that stupid "ohhhh ohoh oh ohhhh oh" chant when they cut a 20 point lead to 13 points and end up leaving early

With wade on the major decline, they are in desperate need of another perimeter ball handler. Lowry fits right in. He can catch and shoot off the lebron drive and kick and provide that next ball handler they desperately need.
But I don't see him choosing miami. He's going to want to get paid. He's going where the money's at, maybe a slight discount with us but he is going to get paid.

At the end of the day what do you think is more important to a player - the chance at winning a ring or playing in front of a nice crowd?
Crowd would be down the list of priorities
