“Chubby”. This is the adjective we sometimes hear about Kyle Lowry, the Heat’s point guard. The 2019 NBA champion has always been a beefy point guard, and with age he looks like he’s wrapped up. 25 years ago, we wrote the same thing about Tim Hardaway, and the latter, also passed through Miami, wants to defend Kyle Lowry.
” I want you to write this” he launches at the Sun Sentinel. ” Kyle Lowry is not fat! He’s not fat and he’s not overweight. He wears US football shorts under his shorts, and it makes him look bigger. But it is much finer than you think. I’ve been telling everyone that for a long time. And everyone tells me he’s overweight. This guy is not overweight.“
“Stop falling all the time!” “
On the other hand, if Tim Hardaway must issue a criticism against Kyle Lowry, it is his search for the passage in force and his game at risk. ” He has to stop falling warns the future Hall Of Famer. ” That’s why he gets hurt. I see you telling me, I love Kyle. I love what Kyle Lowry does on the pitch. I just want him to stop flop. He has to do it at least. “
And Tim Hardaway to speak directly to Kyle Lowry, and to hammer home his message: You keep falling, again, again, and you’re going to hurt yourself. You’re bound to get hurt, and yes, it’s going to take you out of the rotation. I think that’s what hurts him the most: flopping and falling all the time. Stop falling all the time!“
