Lowry is better than Lebron.

Are there only 2 players in the NBA or something?

In that same decade multiple better player’s have won multiple championships, plus being far more consistent and contributing to their team success.

His resume this decade is nice. Not 2nd best though. Multiple rings for Curry, and MVP’s (even 1) from guys get you a nod over a guy with 1 all-nba.

That being said he’s been snubbed from awards for years now and probably deserves a handful of 3rd team all NBA’s, another all star appearance Demar stole from him, and likely some all defence awards because he’s been arguably the best defensive guard for a decade for sure.

I think he has a top 10 argument though
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

He's the number #1 least respected, for sure.


(I agree with you, OP, but most of this general board couldn't pinpoint a great two way player even if they mushroom slapped them in the face.)

I like the passion, but no. He deserves far more respect than he gets. Especially his playoff performances

2nd best leader... maybe even the best, but not the 2nd best player.

Not that far but I dont think ppl appreciate him enough. He's a Hof player, clutch as hell. He was bucketrd as a choker due to demar but the real ones know.

The man is like 35 in his i dont know 15 season playing all of the 2nd half making winning plays against an elite team while his team is playing to stay alive.

He's a legend.

Not true. That's a false narrative. He's was up and down in the playoffs with both good and bad performances.

Won a ring, stayed with the team instead of ring chasing, willing to take charges, always a team first player, doesnt get in trouble with the law, doesnt need to have the NBA change its rules so his game can flourish like some other stars have had done.

He has done it all, certified stud
