Kyle Lowry said that he wants to come "the head of the snake" for the Raptors. Lowry expressed his desire to play a leadership role for his new team, saying, "I definitely feel like I am the leader, I am a leader that can push my teammates and get after it and I think guys will follow me." The Raptors brought in Lowry to set the tone, and we fully expect him to do exactly that. After a tumultuous season with Kevin McHale in Houston last year, Lowry and his new coach, Dwane Casey, are on the same page going into the season.
