Also Conley's name got eaten in an edit somehow. Lowry was very very good this year, maybe 5th best PG overall after the CP3 Westbrook Harden Curry group. Might be his last year being that good tho Cool Buff Man posted:The 6 Hornets fans in the world are gonna be really mad to see this

Kyle Lowry is my chubby little prince, I won't have anyone saying he's not the best PG in the east.

Dantonio's already said he's going to try to be doing minutes staggering so one of them is always on the floor playing PG and otherwise running a two PG set.

I was sayin' in the other thread I think Lowry might be the single best overall as judged by our Proprietary Advanced Four Factors Threadmetrics: Can he shoot? Is he cute? Can he pass? Does he got rear end? Others might be more individual-column gifted, but I can't think of any player with a better overall score

Cool Buff Man posted:An actual belt would be best, one with rivets and sparkles, but I think it was really helpful that they circled the OKC logo on the picture. I would never have found it otherwise. Russ could design something with a rattlesnake necktie, and they have Bo Diddley's Who Do You Love as the home entrance music. That song still kicks rear end. Woops, looks like I went on a tangent hahaha.... Chairchucker posted:Actually Rubio is the best Chairchucker dressed up as a Lost Boy chanting "Ru-Be-O! Ru-Be-O!"

John Wall was good enough last year to make me think he's probably the fourth best point guard in the league, with a chance to move into the top 3 if CP3 noticeably declines anytime soon (this is not counting fake PG James Harden) Kyrie on the other hand is plausibly sub-Lillard (who is famously not even All Star caliber)

If I was a bad team that wanted to make the playoffs I'd rather have Lowry than Irving. But if I was a great team and already had a primary ball handler I'd want Irving. Irving should just get traded to the Cavs. He'd pair up well with Lebron and could run some sweet plays with TT.

BWV posted:If I was a bad team that wanted to make the playoffs I'd rather have Lowry than Irving. But if I was a great team and already had a primary ball handler I'd want Irving. That's why Zach Lowe's suggestion of Denver makes a bit of sense. Jokic can do the Lebron orchestration while he pretends to play pg and does a lot of scoring. He'd fit well in Memphis with Marc/Jamychal both being good passing bigs and conley being an unselfish player whose ball pounding is much less productive than Kyrie's

If Kyrie actually went to the timberwolves it would be very funny that Thibs the GM acquired one of the most lazy defenders in the NBA, to pair with the most clueless (Wiggins) and befuddled (Towns)

The Bigger thing would be how good the Bigs are at dealing with PnR, and how good the PG at funneling than like man up PG defense.

Irving on the Nuggets would be dope, but I don't want to lose both Murray and Harris, and potentially Chandler. That's probably what it would take plus picks, right? Can't imagine the Cavs would want Faried with TT on the team.
