They are the same type of player.


Dude is 15 and 7 with 36% from 3 and plays D. Definitely much better than Felton. Just not a great playmaker. Does all else well, including being a jerk.


36% is not very good. It's simply average. It's also his career high as he's never been a good 3 point shooter.

Lowry's FG% is awful and he is a shoot first pg like Felton. The only thing he has over Felton is athleticism. But Lowry is not that much better than Felton. Raptors fans will tell you the same thing.


do you research anything?

last 4 years from 3

.376
.374
.362
.361

he avg like one 3 a game for his first few years and wasn't good he has taken 4-5 over the past 4 years and has been good.

facts man, they are good you should try them sometimes.

Well no matter what you think of Lowry, Felton IS on his 2nd horrible season out of the last 3. He's done.

It wud be a steal for the knicks for couple reasons...

- Lowry will be motivated to get a new contract so he will play his ass off
- Lowry is a better PG then felton pretty simple as that, he plays D and can get to the line
- We replace felton ...had enough of that burger

Wow , I can't even begin to describe how heated I'd be about that.

I doubt you guys throw him in just to get this done. I think this might be a three way with you guys giving up Raymond and maybe shump tops.

Yeah, give up a 1st rounder for an expiring contract.

If you're Mills you tell them to take Shump and Felton or shove it. No other team in their right mind would give up a 1st for Lowry. So why should we? Oh that's right, because we're the Knicks.

No.

I think you're the one overrating Lowry.

I think you're overrating Felton. Aside from lobbing to Tyson, he's league-worst at every aspect of the game.

I have to disagree. Lowry is no All-Star ... Felton is no starter. He's shooting 27% from 3 and his pudgy body is breaking down. He's a decent floor general every third game. He's not good.
