2) Fournier's wingspan is 6'7.5"....Lowry's is 6'2".... so let's not talk about "short wingspan."
3) Lowry has been a negative defender for the last two years (really poor last year). Fournier's defense numnbers in ORL weren't good, but a large part of that was the wings who would play in his place were GOOD defenders. In BOS Fournier's defensive impact was -0.3, so the team broke even with his D. Solid stuff.
4) Boston enjoyed having him so much they'd rather trade for JOSH RICHARDSON (!!!!!!) than pony up dough to keep him.
I'm a little tongue-in-cheek here, because I'd be fine with adding Fournier. I like him a little.
But, I think we're officially underrating what Lowry brings to the table at this point.
