Miami Heat: Kyle Lowry Deserves Our Patience And Time To Get Right

Even still though, when you look at what Lowry was able to do from the standpoint of his own production when he was mentally and physically right, he delivered.

During a stretch in the middle of the year, where Bam Adebayo was down with his thumb injury and Jimmy Butler also missed time, Kyle Lowry was the lone star on the court for Miami. In those games without Adebayo and Butler, Lowry led the Miami Heat to almost three times the total amount of wins compared to the games they dropped, about 11-4.

He also showed up big in those games, giving the Heat what they needed in whichever department they needed it in, from scoring to playmaking. He also led them to some big wins in that stretch over Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and Chicago.

Plainly put, Lowry delivered more than he didn’t when he was without his two best counterparts and when the team needed him the most.
