Vince needed Oakley to bitchsmack him into playing hard each and every game where as Lowry is the guy doing the smacking to everybody else in addition to carrying the team when needed. If Kyle was able to throwdown massive dunks (which is funny to think of unless he were like his son/athletic young clone Dennis Smith Jr) he would stand out more in people's minds.
This is going to be a weird comparison but almost reminds me of Pierce vs Billups...PP was integral to the Celtics success and will leave a major mark on his team but Chauncey led the Pistons, I think Billups overall value to his team was more despite Paul being a more talented player who was a big part of the Cs success but Garnett imo was the biggest reason BOS won it all, not Paul. Chauncey was the biggest reason the Pistons won and I think Lowry has that level of effect on our team versus VC and it's shown in the W column and before we say that's DeRozan too....Lowry has led this team to more Ws than VC had when he was on the Nets with Jason Kidd and Jefferson. He's that good and slept on.
