The context of playoff performance vs regular season performance is very different.
Watch the Pacers/Wizards from last night. Those dudes were playing at a million miles per hour. Playoffs don’t play at that pace. If we start Lowry opposite of Halliburton he’s going to get ran into the dirt. Imagine DeAaron Fox licking his lips at the thought of being guarded by Lowry.
Lowry can still make great playoff plays. He’s got the deft hands and the mind. But regular season isn’t like that.
