Got this question via Twitter:
@charliezegers who's better Lowry or Nash ? on nba fantasy this season?
The short answer is Nash, who I have ranked 10th at the PG position and 36th overall on my fantasy basketball cheat sheet. I have Lowry 14th among PGs and 50th overall. But explanations are important, and hard to manage in 140 characters.
I'm actually concerned about both players. I don't know how much of the offense Kobe Bryant is going to be willing to cede to Nash. But I also don't know how much playing time Toronto is going to give to Jose Calderon. Calderon is the bigger worry for me; I imagine Toronto will want to make him look good, if only to generate interest on the trade market.
It's also worth noting that, while Nash is significantly older, Lowry has a much more extensive injury history.
That's why I'd lean towards the Laker, but it's not a slam dunk.
If you have a question about your fantasy team or draft, don't hesitate to hit me up on Twitter: @charliezegers.
