Raptors played well without him when he was out. We can save money and try to upgrade the SF position and roll with Delon-Cory at PG. Another bright spot is DeMar played a lot better overall without him and became more of a playmaker.

Thoughts?

We need to get rid of Caroll too, and use that money to get some cheap 3 point shooters that are able to FREAKING HIT AN OPEN THREE

I suggested trading him and that was dumb? But you want to let him walk for nothing?

Truth is I just called exactly what is happening. a 31 year old injury prone PG is declining. I just saw before you guys did.

But you didn't want to trade him so now you have no choice but to sign him. If you don't you're just stuck in 9th in the East (worst treadmill)

You're stuck with your 210 million dollar man now

Why don't you wait until the playoffs are over and then it will be worth discussing,

I love him alot. My favourite raptor of all time but it's time to move. 4 years in a row. 31 year old 150-200 million dollar who chokes in the playoffs. No thanks

As a big Lowry>Derozan supporter.... absolutely yes! This guy cannot get it done in the playoffs. Some people are just soft mentally and cannot get it done in the playoffs. Ever since he missed that game 7 shot vs Brooklyn he has turned into a mental midget in the playoffs

We played pretty well without Lowry to end the season, keep Serge and PJ they keep Demar accountable on D. Look I like Lowry, but he never shows up in the playoffs, what's the point of signing up for that?

It's time to admit it: Kyle Lowry is a regular season player 

Post#20 » by VinBaker6 » Sat Apr 15, 2017 11:57 pm

He's a fraud. He CANNOT be relied upon in the playoffs. It doesn't even matter if he a has a good game in game 2, we cannot rely on him consistently. Last year it was the elbow. The previous year it was the back. He infected the entire the team with his scared play. He's the leader of the team and let them down.

S/O to TZ!
