Kyle Lowry: Do We Keep Him or Do We Ship Him?

I love what Kyle Lowry is doing for the Raptors, no doubt his and DeRozans efforts have taken the Raptors to a level we haven’t been playing at in years. However I’m not sold on him as an asset. I’ve been fooled too many times by players in contract year, they play their behinds off to secure as fat a contract as possible for  security. Too many times I’ve picked up fantasy players hoping they will perform even remotely close to how they did the previous year, and unless they’re a franchise player or a young blossoming star, players will more likely disappoint and break your heart once they’ve secured that juicy contract they’re REALLY putting in all the efforts for. Now only Kyle Lowry knows what his true intentions are, but Lowry himself was the first player to teach me this harsh reality about players in their contract year. It was a few seasons ago, he was in his last season as a Houston Rockets and of course he was playing like a man on a mission. But of course, the season ends and mission accomplished, he got his contract and started to coast yet again. I love what the guy has done and is currently doing for the organization, but fool me twice and that’s shame on me. I say trade him while he’s of real value and make sure we get a great return (unlike like the charity give aways we’ve grown notorious for).

Kyle Lowry may not be a household name in the NBA, so for those of you who aren't familiar with him.
