Is Kyle Lowry a top 10 PG?

[T.he I.nformant]

All I know is we got to stop ranking nikkas based on their past

nikkas like Rondo and Rose should not be in the top 10

I'm not saying we have to be prisoners of the moment and completely write them off

But c'mon, brehs, are we really gonna act like Rondo is better than Lowry at the moment

Nah, I ain't static. My top ten of active players is more fluid and I factor shyt like injuries and what have you done lately

These nikkas can earn they spot back but they ain't there

Than Kyle??....cut it out

I think Lowry is top 10 but Dragic is maybe 11 or 10b. But yea people saying Lowry isn't top 10 hasnt seem him him and Derozan and low key you got a core not to mention Lowry plays well on both ends of the floor, his defense is underrated.

yea

Better team record, averaging more points and slightly less assists in fewer minutes

Kyle is a better rebounder and much better defender....

I agree with Lowry being the better defender, his size does certainly help that but I don't think the rebounding edge counts for that much when talking about PGs breh. You could make a case for Lowry being better but IMO Dragic is better at this point.

If you can make an irrelevant point about PPG than i can use rebounding...
Lowry's averaging 17 PPG i think its kind of useless to suggest 2 PPG difference matters when judging there value...

But rebounding in that same context is more 'irrelevant' than scoring for someone in that position breh. By your logic you could apply that same principle to any 'lesser' statistic that a player has and throw everything else out the window - which I don't think would be a good idea. I wouldn't be mad if someone picked Lowry over Dragic but that's just how I look at it

Lowry been ballin . He was triple double threat In Houston every night and that was after he got paid. He's easily top 10. His game just isn't as flashy as other pg's so he gets no respect.

edit:nothing

He shows out

 

[mbewane]

i dont understand this


how could somebody ball out then get paid and decide to mail it in?? Makes no sense to me

The only reason Kyrie got voted as starting PG for the all-star game was cause people want to see him do cross-overs. It's the flash that impresses people on that 45 second Sportscenter highlight that leads them to rank PGs. If people actually watched they would see Lowry is no question a top 10.

The only Pg in the east I'd take him over is Wall...

Exactly Lowry has already hit his peak and Wall still better.
