The issue when it comes to Lowry's game has nothing to do with his athleticism; it's injury based. The same thing that people love about Lowry's game is the same thing that could eventually hurt it as he gets older.
Essentially; how D Wade is handled will have to be how he's handled.Barolt wrote: View PostThe thing about saying Lowry's game isn't predicated on athleticism: He LOVES contact. He loves running into guys, hitting the floor, he's a physical guy. That takes a toll on the body.

This is interesting with regards to Lowry. Just a reminder that undersized point guards don't necessarily age well.
You change the height criteria in your search to the range "6-5 and above" and you get an even smaller list (6 vs. 8)

Conclusion: Tall guys age worse than small guys, which is actually more in line with the study of populations.Last edited by golden; Tue Jul 26, 2016, 11:44 AM.

Some guys just keep going until their bodies fail them and they can't play anymore. With plenty of smarts, good physical strength, quick hands, and a good 3 point shot, Lowry should be able to age well if he takes care of his body.

Kyle named best teammate for the Raps.
Nice to see Amir getting named best teammate for the Celtics. Just reinforces what a good guy he is.
