Is Kyle Lowry a HOFer?

[PRESIDENT TRUMP]

His stats say no, but he never was a counting stat player. His intangibles are off the charts. Led the league in charges drawn for 5 straight years, led the league in loose balls recovered for 4/7 years.

1 Championship
1 Olympic gold medal
6 time All Star
1 All NBA

Career stats:
15/4/8

As a Raptor:
19/6/8

I ask this because it's a point of contention among Raptors fans

 

[PolishHeadlock2]

Absolutely

 

[PRESIDENT TRUMP]

Absolutely

Little biased cause his from Philly or cause he waited in the tunnel to beat Ben Simmons ass (might be the most Philly shit ever )

All of the above.

 

[PRESIDENT TRUMP]

All of the above.

Kyle Lowry is the opitamy of Philly. Scrappy fucker, toughness, grit, you
hate to play, but would love to have on ur team. His b-ball IQ is off the charts.

 

[PRESIDENT TRUMP]

This is a dude who on 2 separate occasions waited in Phillis hallway waiting to throw hands with Ben Simmons

According to this, it's 85.7%:

To me, he's borderline. I think he needs another championship, or some All NBA selections. He's only been third team once.

But those teams are selected by writers based on counting stats. When do the intangibles become a factor since we're now able to measure some of those ?

IMO you got to make some more 3rd teams at least to be in the NBA or all defensive teams.

Sure. No doubt. Can you name 3 better defensive point guards every year for 6 years? Numbers don't show it. We all know kyle Lowry is an elite defender.

Once again. We're now able to equate defensive prowess. Kyle Lowry was third in point guards in defending the three. 1st. In defending the rim..1st in charges. 1st in loose balls recovered. 6th in man to man fg% , 3rd in man to man assist %. the only point guard id have ahead if him is jrue Holliday

And was the anchor for the best defence in the NBA 4/5 years..leading to a title..yeah. I'll take Lowry over everyone but a few when the games on the line

Leads the NBA in game winning shots and fg% when the game is on the line..

6 years doesn't cut it though. That's what I'm saying. You need to do this for a few more years if you're not a superstar.

hof is iffy, heart says yes, head says no

 

[Revolver]

BBall ref says yes. Charles Barkley says yes. That's all I need

I get what you're saying. But don't you think a gold medal and a ring push him over the edge ?

Borderline, but two champs would be more convincing... especially without Kawai.
