I think we should go after Kyle Lowry. He is one of the top PGs in the league that was responsible for Raptors getting the #3 seed.

He is better than Bledsoe, Rondo and the top PGs in this draft. Consider weather, taxes, franchise etc...Tornoto vs LA should be an easy choice for him.

I like Lowry. But if we can draft Smart at 1/3rd the cost, I'd do that.

But if we draft say Randle, Lowry would be on my radar.

Yup. Will likely cost at least $12M to get him.

I love Kyle Lowry, but I really doubt he leaves Toronto. He has stated many times he loves it there and Masai has said Lowry is at the top of his priority list. Also Toronto is constantly voted as one of the best cities in North America to raise a family. Seeing as Lowry has kids that might be more important to him than the bright lights of la.

Who's not talking about Lowry? Other big names are getting more pub, but I've seen him on here a lot. To me, someone will pay him top dollar and I'd like to see other options before I bid for him. He's a sub 42% shooter, but he can push the ball and even get some boards. I could see Toronto outbidding anyone if not because they just can't attract FA's without overpaying.

They'll offer a 5th year too, and considering Lowry is 28 and hasn't made THAT much money, it would be hard to pass up.
