08:53 AM ET 05.26 | Rockets guard Kyle Lowry returned to the Toyota Center weight rooms and went through shooting drills on the practice court. But as he leaves town Saturday, he does not know if he'll return to those familiar facilities or if he wants to be back. Lowry does not believe he and Goran Dragic, his successor as the starting point guard this season, will both return to the roster next season. Lowry was even less confident he and Rockets coach Kevin McHale can successfully coexist. "I don't think so," Lowry, 26, said. "I honestly think it would be tough. Things have to be addressed. The situation would have to be addressed. If things aren't addressed coaching-wise, I guess I have to be moved." But McHale did not believe the issues were too great for him and Lowry to work well together.

Anytime you hear this kinda talk from a player, you know its time to make a move. Rockets if you don't hear me talking, just listen to this guy........make a move!

Josh Smith and Marvin Williams for Lowry & Scola. Every one is happy.

Oh yeah we can also do the Kevin McHale for Larry Drew swap too.

QUOTE(#6):

Kids are getting dumber each day. What has he done to make him think that he is a star in this league? He spent half of the time in the injury list. He showed signs that he could play the point but he is nowhere near in the top ten in PG position. Why would you discriminate yourself from the team?

Acually readers like you are getting dumber. Where did he say he was a star or a top ten pg? The man was asked questions it's not like he held a press conference. It's not news that Mchale preferred someone else (any one else) over Lowery so why should he not speak about it? There are plenty of teams that could use an upgrade at PG.
