Poor planning (potentially) as in not trading Lowry last off-season and passing up the opportunity to tank in the process.


New York wasn't even offering their 2018 draft pick. Dolan nixed the deal. So, you give away Lowry for nothing? Only a stupid gm would do that.

Last off-season i am talking about ..

NYK trade talks happened during the season.

Lowry needs to show the world that he will not fall for the tactics of Houston, who are essentially the ex-girlfriend in this scenario.

And the Raps are the Bros that helped pick him back up after Houston did him dirty, cheated on him with Dragic, and then dumped both of them like an evil hussy.

Meanwhile, the Raps became his ultimate wing man, and comrade.

Lowry needs to show the world that he will not put the kitty on a pedestal longer than his reach in NBA shoes.

Yeah this is what im pissed about too. Masai seriously thought calling him over the phone or skyping would really be the way to go?

MAybe im just getting way ahead myself. LEtss see what happens first. But it would be disspaointing if lowry chose houston because of the fact that Morey came to see him face to fact while masai called him.

Few things guys. Kyle will not sign a deal over night without thinking it through. You to ink they walk through the door and it's hugs and kisses where do I sign? This is the biggest decision of his life career wise and he won't make it on a whim.

If Lowry goes, I don't blame him. He is a free agent and Houston is closer to contend. What I am I'm interested is what raptors will get in return if facilitate a sign and trade. Too asik is gone, Lin would be good now that Lowry is gone. I'm hoping for parsons to coke along, opening a spot for melo to land in Houston

I'm told face-to-face meeting between Raptors & prized free agent Kyle Lowry scheduled for later Tuesday ... as in Tuesday in the sunlight

Lowry will say to ujiri "Morey made the best offer so I'm taking my talent back to Houston".

The pro tank window went out with Gay. Thats not poor planning, just working with the hand that you were dealt..- but to each their own. :noway:

If Morey is bringing that big booty hoe that James Harden dropped 50gs on to the meeting with Lowry , you know damn well Lowry ain't coming back.

Don't leave us, Kyle! The city of Toronto needs you!

Actually up until 2 weeks before many thought it was I dunno. Grange was one of the first to say nope.

Return to Toronto Raptors
