He's a legitimate writer for Deadspin and Complex Sports and I think he runs the Sixers social media pages so this isn't just some random dude trying to get retweets. And these are screenshots I personally took from Twitter too so these aren't just fakes I found online.

Appreciated.

@johnschuhmann Kyle Lowry took Stephen Curry's place on the USA roster last summer & somehow got Steph's ability to shoot off the dribble, too.

Impressive start to the season for Lowry.

It's all about late April through May for him, though. Gotta stay healthy

 

[awwsome]

Lowry been the 3rd best player in the East behind Giannis and Bron so far.

You can make an argument for Wall but when you factor in team success you gotta give it Lowry.

Where Mamba blood Kyrie at?

Kyrie just started really turning up when he came back from injury but now he's out again.

Kyle Lowry has been a top ten player in the league the last two years.

Then he gets hurt in April when everyone is watching and gets killed for it.

 

[rbk93]

Top 10 PG maybe.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Top 10 PG maybe.

Yeah.



Kyle Lowry ain't no damn top 10 player.

 

[nick.]

Top 10 PG maybe.

 

[antidope]

I can't even think of four PGs I have above Kyle Lowry, but I'm not gonna do this. The whole player ranking argument thing is pointless.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Went from wall Vs Lowry to Lowry has been a top 10 player for the past two years

What a time

 

[awwsome]

Lowry a top 10 player the last two years.


AND OKB didn't say it.

NT loves them stat dudes that don't really do anything. Lowry, the white boy in Utah.

 

[starboy]

NT also loves pointing out stats when they support their arguments and dismissing them when they don't

Lowry doesn't actually do anything? 

 

[nick.]

Lowry: 23/5/7, team is 23-10
Hayward: 22/6/4, team is 21-13

They don't do much.

 

[ballinsam23]

Lowry's great but he'll probably stink it up in the playoffs again.

 

[Peep Game]

They're really good players, you just don't want to have to build teams around them

Bulls should have blew it up this past summer

But look at their stats!!

Yup. Once the Raptors replaced them as the new media contrived team in the East that can beat LeBron's team they should have gave it up.
