It appears that if we don't get Lowry, we will be gleaning scraps - not like Holmes, but rather MLE-types that we'll pay the amount of money we ought to paying THJ. This is the final year before Luka's max. To have that happen would be an epic fail. We would be going into next season (and the years to come) with a very slightly superior roster to last year's poopshow. We have two decent NBA starters in Luka and DFS. Last time I checked, NBA teams need five. Three or four would be nice all things considered.
So, yeah, Lowry, or unmitigated disaster, or Scott41 is (very improbably but very happily) wrong.
Again, Nico said they already have 15 scenarios and expects those to double. I'm not trying to blow sunshine but let's doom and gloom after we fail, if we fail.
