Not only that, regarding the big picture, how is Lowry's team faring this season? They are 4-15, worse than the Kings. Their defense is worse than the Kings. Yeah, Lowry sure makes a huge impact.

The Kings often give up season highs to opposing players, especially marginal ones like Kyle Lowry. Lowry's numbers may look impressive to some, but there's a reason he's moved around the league a bit already. He's not an impact player.

Barngiani, Derozan, and Calderon are some of the worst defenders in the league. Lowry's a stud on offense, and makes plays (although he takes some off) on D. I'd take Lowry and Henson, maybe even Lowry alone, over Trob and Brooks, any day.

Yes, and Michael Jordan and LeBron played on 30 win teams their first years in the league. Lowry was hurt for a few games, whcih did not help, but he's been an absolute stud for them this year. The one thing that is going right for them. Us trying to deny that so that we can sleep better at night is just silly. 18.3pts 5.7reb 6.0ast 1.6stl 0.7blk and a partridge in a pear tree. Looks like a guy we know. Put two of them together and that's punishing.

Facepalm.

Lowry has his moments, but he has a way of getting injured and losing his job. 2 seasons ago, Brooks took over for him in Houston, last year, Dragic took over. Earlier this year, Calderon had a triple double and 4 double doubles while Lowry was out.
