I immediately thought of a bunch of old point guards that aged well.
I think back in the Kemba days somebody posted some research that short point guards tend to fall off a cliff in their early 30s (which certainly seems to be the case for Kemba). It might be more about their skillset/body type. The guys that relied on quickness had a lot of trouble aging gracefully. The fact that Lowry is more about strength and savvy than quicks and he has already made it past the danger zone maybe bodes well, but the decline has already started. Will it be slow or fast?
