How did Lowry get so good over Summer? 

Post#1 » by bongmarley » Wed Nov 3, 2021 4:20 pm

For past decade he played for Raptors and was a bum, now he plays for the Heat and he is awesome. is it due to heat culture?

He's such an ass. I mean literally. He's an ass with an upper body and legs attached to it. Crazy when you think about it.

In case you guys don't have a Raps-fan-to-English Dictionary, this is some kind of reverse-troll thread wherein the Raptors fan OP wants people to admit they treated Kyle Lowry unfairly while he was a Raptor.

10 ppg 4 rpg 7.5 aspg with a 14.3 PER (league average is 15).

That's like... yeah that's nothing to brag about. You would expect the exact opposite claim would be made and ask why did the Heat waste their money when they had Herro on Lowry.

5 bucks says Kyle leads the Heat in +/- this year and it’s not a small number.

What he is doing is typical Lowry. The difference with him is that when he is shooting inefficiently he still gives you defense, leadership and IQ on the court.

Just watch, he'll definitely go off soon and when he does it'll balance out the stats to his career average.. always does.

Don't lump him in with other Raptors' fans. We hate his threads, too.

It's a slow start but it looks like Lowry should start picking it up from here on out. In the end he'll probably average 15+ points and provide good defense and playmaking. His contract is still expensive but I have no doubt that his addition to the Heat makes them a contender this year.

My bad, I didn't mean to. I said "Raps fans" in my comment but it was a typo and edited it.

This is one of those threads where I really don't know if I should lock it. Are we having fun guys or this is stupid?
