that is like saying Mario Chalmers is maning the ship of the heat.....

Both guys are better shooters and defenders than Lowry. Why would Indy/Miami prefer Lowry for his dribble-penetration skills when they have other guys to do that?


where did I say anything like that?

I was simply commenting on the fact that chalmers and hill don't effect there teams success much.

You could swap lowry with both and they both wouldn't miss a beat.

Its like saying Hill or Chalmers on the raptors and they would be a better team...they are a product of playing with really good teammates...that is it.

After years of watching us value shot-creating ability over everything else and having it blow up in our faces, you'd think people would have some appreciation for solid 3&D guards like Hill and Chalmers. But no, it's all about how much you chuck.

Funny thing is that Hill would be the perfect PG to play alongside Melo.. but these guys would still take Lowry. :lol:

Toronto get- Felton
Knicks get- Lowery and Lee
Golden State get- Bargs, Beno and Smith

Felton and JR play with a really good teammate in Melo but they still suck.

Toronto holding firm on asking price of quality young player and/or a first round pick, rival execs say. This could be a prolonged process



Just based on twitter stuff sounds like they asked for Felton and THrj and the Knicks said no Felton and Shump and the Raptors said no

Lowry is the better PG too. I thought we went over this with how George and Stephenson gotta play PG for his ass.
