Sad his time here ended with the animosity it did.

He just wasn’t close to the same guy when he got here. Yet his attitude and mindset did not change.

Kyle was a good player and consummate professional, a great part of last years playoff run and I wish him well all the rest of his days! Farewell friend!

Long Live Winnie. Mamba siempre

Hence why I'm not shedding any tears.....still, he was here for 2 of our deep playoff runs and as such wish him well. Probably will get bought out by CHA & picked up by a contender....best bet PHI.

He started off well here giving us a veteran floor general who could still play and push the pace. But he was already on his very last legs as far as being consistent. Once he started missing time for all those unexplained personal reasons things started to sour. He was clearly never the same after that and we only saw flashes of the contributions we expected. His attitude and conditioning never quite fit Heat culture, and it's sad it came to the point of good riddance but it clearly did. He sure stole a lot of money for what he did around here lol, and getting us Terry is probably the best thing he ever did for us. Adios Lowry...

Guy never bought in. Got fatter and worse every season. He didn’t do anything worthy of being remembered a Heat player. Should’ve just stayed in Toronto where the fans there are use to mediocrity and cheer it on (Lowry&Derozan). At least he was loved in Toronto

He did the best with what he had left in the tank and came up big in certain moments. Just wish he wouldn’t of fleaced us money wise, handicapping our ability to improve. At 15-20 mil it would of been alright.

Either way thx and good luck! (Just don’t join the C’s ffs)

New rule. F Boston!

This does leave Philly though, his likely destination in my opinion.

Lowry was one of the highest effort players when he wanted to be.
His defense will be missed as he would battle against trees for strips and rebounds.
Never forget he stepped it up in the playoffs even though he was a corpse in the regular season last year.

if he ends up on a playoff teams it will be interesting to watch what he does.

when you take the conditioning issues, the odd missed games for personal reasons, missing practices...then unfollowing Heat players....clearly that ship sailed it's course.

At least the Heat can rest soundly knowing they went in 100% on Lowery, they gave him every opportunity and they paid him for top performance.

I wonder how Jimmy feels about all this, that chunk of change paid to Lowery was "his co-star" money. That was the added "star" to help him get his ring.

It was partly Jimmy's choice. He vouched for his boy. He was wrong.
