Ask a fan of any of those teams if they'd rather have Kyle Lowry than their current starting PG. The only team you might get a no from is Indiana--Lowry might be a better player than George Hill, but Hill's a fantastic fit for that team.

West: OKC no. LAC no. GS no. Memphis no. San Antonio no. Houston and LAL yes.
East: Indiana no. Chicago next year no. Brooklyn no. Indiana no. Atlanta no. Boston no. Milwaukee NYK yes. (Miami is never allowed to be in a discussion for roster spots because the team is much to unique. You have the best player on earth who can play point if need be, and a legend SG who can also play point. That team has no need for a true PG in the last 5 min of a basketball game.)
My point I guess is if you put Lowry on any of the yes teams, how much further do they advance in the playoffs. I would argue that he wouldn't have changed any teams fate, except perhaps NYK last year.
How does he change are fate if he is our long term PG solution? I just don't think he can be the type of PG that wins championships. I don't think his defence can be lock down. I don't think he can make the critical passes that players need.
I do think he is right for the Raptors right now: A team that wants to be competitive, win home games, and boost moral.
