Look at game 4 when we had Cory taking the shots in the last couple regulation possessions. He's been better than every player except JV and Carroll in the playoffs, but if Lowry doesn't foul out and is taking those shots you think he makes one of the two of them and this series is now over. Some guys have the will to take and make those shots, and Lowry is the top guy for the Raps. Of course you'd prefer great run sets and cuts to produce an open J, but at the end of the day they had their captain clutch come through and that's all that matters.
