honestly, lowry isn't without blame in this one. He did not even attempt to attack the basket, dreadful performance.But like I said earlier so articulately what good does it do attacking the basket when you play with catch and shoot players/cutters like landry fields and friggin terrence ross. These type of players excel with a pass first point guard like calderon......

I think its time to start Lowry again but it wont happen he, needs to ger situated, hes shown he can pass the ball and score let him play with the starters if you are selling him as your PG of the future then let him start. No knock to Jose at all, but if you are trading a guy soon and keep talking about yes he is on the block dont neglect what your current future plan is.
Lowry is a much matured player now adapting to the system give him back his spot.

Terrance Ross played 3 mins, Lowry had an opportunity to be aggressive. He didnt. My biggest concern moving forward is that this is the guy that is supposed to take over..

Jose
21 pts 8 assists 2 rebs 1 steal No Turnovers 31 mins
Lowery
0 PTS!!! 6 Assists 2 rebs 1 steal 1 turnover 17 mins
The point is that everyone has been after Lowry to play more of a facilitating team game, and not look for his own offence. Casey has probably been emphasizing that, and reinforcing it by starting Calderon and giving him minutes with the only decent front-court players. It's clear that Lowry has taken that message too far. Casey needs to correct that, unless we want Anderson to be the leader of the second unit.

He also has the worst body language out there.
I thought everyone wanted pass first PGs in these parts?
Jose is a free agent. He won't need to worry about being run out of town. he can leave on his own accord. Oh and how did Jose play off the bench?
The worst body language, eh? Very subjective but I'll humor you: how would you feel being asked to change everything about your game that made you the player/person you are? Much like Casey coaching to his weaknesses to start the season, Lowry has been asked to stop playing to what made him KLow.

Not a good game by Lowry, but he got 6 assists while playing with guys who were missing wide open looks. If Acy could make a layup and Ross and Anderson were hitting the shots they usually made, Lowry would have easily been at 10 assists. If you want a direct comparison with Calderon, consider the stretch of four games in early December where Calderon was averaging about 5pts and 3 assists off the bench. He didn't suck, but he had zero help. Some nights our bench is going to bail out their PG, and some nights they'll make him look worse than he is. Tonight was the latter.

KLow for Low in efficiency, effort and production.
