I think your calculator is broken.

I'm too ****ing easy to troll.
I like Lowry. To be honest I think Burke is a good comparison. Lowry is undersized, scoring-minded, and took him a while to reach his PG potential. He didn't rise to the occasion in Indiana and Houston but really found a fit in Toronto. If given time, Burke could be a slow burn like Lowry.

Well, to be fair, he did only play 27 games over 2.5 seasons in Indiana. The prolapsed colon didn't help.

I'm probably looking at this all wrong but I remember MEM trading Lowry to HOU and seems like despite his production he had issues meshing in HOU (also Jazz did beat him in the playoffs) so off he goes to TOR where for the first time seems like he is a player worth keeping. Patterson who many here liked in the draft as a back up PF was drafted by HOU traded to SAC and then off to TOR.
This is probably my dislike of HOU but just seems like we'd be taking HOU's castoffs and I don't like that idea or feeling (again I admit I'm probably looking at this in the wrong way).

So basically Hack made something up? What's new?

Lowry is one hell of a player and I too expect the Raps to blow it up and make him available for trade talks. But he is not the best fit for us. Size, pesky defense, smart unselfish basketball.. Sounds like Lowry to you? Such a bad fit will only ruin the chemistry. You guys will eventually realize Exum is actually the man because he has size, bball IQ and unselfishness, and he's an impressive defender already if not great.
I think this is pretty amazing. I'd have a lot of concern with the chemistry angle though (I think Booker should play out his contract here but think Patterson would be a perfect fit [thought about starting a thread about it, actually], and I've heard things about Lowry being kind of difficult over the years, but he's an absolute stud [at least when his shot is falling]).
I would lose sleep thinking about this. I'd be happy staying the course or exploring this. As Siro said, what's the point of hoarding assets if you're not going to use them?
