His Father is watching and he only plays for garbage time


Don't feel sorry for him, he makes $1.5M a year, and then is going to make a whole lot more in a couple of years. He's playing on one of the best teams in the NBA as well. Did I mention he's being payed millions to play basketball?

Yeah this is just embarrassing for them.


Embarrassing yea but you don’t blow up a team that’s one of the youngest in the league and had the second best record. They ran into lebron..

He's definitely more likely to disappear in an important game/series than those others


Amazingly enough, coming into tonight, Lowry was averaging 22/8 on 63/50/88(80%TS!). He was also the one leading that spirited comeback at the end of game 3; he had a really strong 4th quarter.

He had a much, much better postseason than Lillard did, by a wide margin.

Lowry has actually been good most of these playoffs. Definitely played better than Lillard who has had his own playoff issues and was dominated by Jrue Holiday in the 1st round.

I think his shortness hurts him more than people are willing to admit. When he drives into the paint his options are very limited.


LMAO the same Lillard who also got swept, except in the first round? How quickly people forget. Also, why you trashing on Lowry, he hasn't played badly and this isn't his fault. If you want to blame anyone, blame Derozan, Casey and Ibaka.

Now you all see why I was happy when the Laker's got rid of Clarkson. He's a homeless Lou Williams. I don't think he's good enough to be called a homeless Kyrie.

If Bud comes in one of Ibaka or Jonas has to go. Ibaka is the worst passing big man in the entire league that gets regular minutes, that won't cut it in Bud's offense (or any offense really).

a Lebron team that barely got past freaking Indiana. This isn't that good of a team lets be honest, you are being swept by a team that honestly is reasonably mediocre.

The final Raptors game was sponsored by Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom on the CA broadcast.... unfortunate movie title for the circumstances.

I don't think he deserves that nickname. Maybe if he improves in the offseason.
