Even though everybody loses to Lebron, but you don't hear them singing his praises to the extent like the Raps did. I never heard Dirk say that kind of stuff when they beat Lebron. Or Paul George, even though they also got swept. Raps open reverence of Lebron was a bit much, IMO.

I don't know why some of you even seem ok with the idea of offering near max dollars.
So you want to pay DD & Lowry like KD & Steph (soon to be) meanwhile they may not even be as good as Klay & Draymond?! The complimentary players of a championship contender.
Let that sink in.
How the hell do you ever expect to really win it all devoting that much money to 2 proven losers?! Not to mention Kyle is by far the worst investment out of all names mentioned considering he's 31, breaking down EVERY year and is a tiny PG.
LET LOWRY WALK
He is nowhere near worth the money and I don't care that it's "MLSE" money, doesn't mean piss it away just so like a bunch of idiots you can be asking yourselves why can we get over the hump with the SAME players. It's time to move on.

Please let him walk.

He most likely will turn it down but how he responds will be telling. Be willing to let him walk. I could see him signing with Spurs. MU MUST however have a back up plan for PG position. KL's body will not survive 5 years. We're gonna regret signing him to 5 year max in future.
Taking a 1+1 is done to give the player more control, at cost of security. At Lowry's age, and with his limited (relative to his all-NBA peers) earnings to date, there's basically no logic to him going that direction.

So while I say it would be the max I would offer him, that's in saying if we absolutely had to, to save face because in actuality I say let him walk because it's been FOUR years and each one of them he's broken down and disappointed. The definition of insanity according to Einstein as we know is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. It's time to formulate a new plan but given that Masai is an idiot that hangs onto Casey I don't have much faith he will. Quite frankly the only thing that's left to keep me hanging on to this franchise is to see who we pick. If it's some garbage like Lydon, Leaf etc then f it, I'm out, I've already endured 22 painful years, I'm not enduring anymore unless there is some inkling of hope at the end of it.

Not sure what other warning signals we need...
