Jaland Lowe

[Chescat]

Lowe was outstanding today. He played 20 minutes
and looked like a seasoned Pg. Of course it was not
a great opponent, but nevertheless he led the
offense beautifully when he was on the floor.
6 Assists and only 1 TO speaks for itself,
but he easily could have had more if some
of his team mates converted. What we saw
early in the season, where he was trying to
do too much wasn't seen today. SCST used
a 3/4 and a half court press which he easily
broke. Time after time he stepped up to their
double team, never went into it, and reversed
the ball effortlessly. He led the fast break, and
made the right pass leading to baskets. He's
playing within himself. I'm really impressed
with how far he's come in such a short amount
from the first few games. We just might be seeing
even more minutes. This wasn't Bub's best
game for sure. Lowe more than made up for it.

100%. Has learned how to dictate pace. Gonna be an all-time PG here, assuming he stays.

He simply dictated things with patience

Really good facilitator. High hopes for Lowe going forward

 

[HailToPitt1985]

Lowe is really good. If he keeps improving, he could be the next Brandin Knight. His court awareness and vision are outstanding. And he has a very high basketball IQ.

CORRECTION! The box score I looked at stated
Lowe at 1 TO. Capel said he had none, as did
another box score. So.....6/0 Assist/TO ratio.
Pretty darn good!

He saved a ball from going out of bounds right to the other team. Not his fault.

On the Pitt website Jaland didn't have any TO's!

Jaland definitely looks to be settling in and gaining more poise. My only concern with him is being a lefty PG. He doesnt seem as comfortable going to his right. Not sure I can recall a lot of great lefty PG's. Maybe others can think of some.

Damon Stoudamire, Jalen Brunson, Nick Van Exel, De'Aaron Fox, Avery Johnson, D'Angelo Russell, Mike Conley, Kenny Anderson, Isaiah Thomas, I guess James Harden.

Reminds of Kevin Braswell from Gtown

 

[New York Panther]

Lowe was outstanding today

Lowe made a couple of long pinpoint passes on the fast break that led to two Pitt scores. On the first one Padgett gave the credit to Ish, but it was really Lowe. On the second one to Blake, Padgett got it right.

As a side note, I thought Padgett was very good as the color man calling the game. To me, he was easily the best we had this year so far.

I agree - good insights
Compared to that rich risen Kurt Warner broadcast after -
Holy shit where they terrible

I think this is what we were all hoping for with him. He'll be really good if he continues to leverage the talent around him.
