Lakers for some reason in that series did not give their all on the road after game 3. I think they thought Houston would eventually lay down. But they didnt. And Lakers destroyed them in game 5 and 7. It was a blessing because Denver should have beat us in game 3 but Kobe went God Mode and saved them with the late 3 which was the birth of the under bite scowl. And they stayed with it until Game 5 in the 4th when LO dunked over Birdman and ended their hopes and than Kobe stuck the dagger in Game 6 in Denver.

Well, Lowry had been MIA for long stretches in the playoffs this year too. He's played well though when it mattered, but as he ages (30 already) not sure how well he will play once he loses some of that quickness. He's pretty small to begin with.

From a production standpoint, I think Lowry has already maximized his potential in Toronto. I don't think anyone anticipated he was capable of playing at his R/S level this year, much less capable of leading a franchise to 56 wins. And he's yet another All Star who often cannot seem to score very efficiently, but he's probably been much more than the Raptors were hoping for upon acquiring him (after that first season dip / struggle).
The matchup with Kyrie Irving should be interesting ... |

| Who cares about Lowry. If Yao didn't get hurt the Lakers would've lost in '09. Dude seriously looked like Shaq out there. Well I mean his game. Not his tummy. |

| You can run with such hypothetical situations all day long... if X player played their very best basketball for 7 games straight then Y team would have lost that series. |
