MkadozaParticipantI figured this would be a good time to post something on the big guy, seeing as how he’s getting a chance to shine in the national spotlight against the Lakers. I just have one question. How can you not love this guy’s game? He handles the ball at any point in the court, makes great passes, eats up the boards, and shows great hustle. He’s tremendously skilled and has very quick feet and body control. No, he’s not a center because he doesn’t blocks shots, but he’s a very talented PF thats honed his skills and produces however he can. Definitely my favorite Knick on the team. Boy does work! I got the seen that Lee’s skill were a product of the teams lack of ability, but I know he’d get a double double on many a teams, and does enough things well thatd he’d produce in any system. What I’m saying is Lee’s worked himself into an all-star. Any thoughts?

TheFactionCoalition.comParticipantAs a Kings fan I hope and think they will go HARD after him this offseason. I think he’d be good on just about any team in the league, everyone can use talented bigs…

JNixonParticipantHe’s grown on me. I used to think he was a product of the Knicks system and I was scared that a team would overpay for him, but he’s clearly got a nice skill set and now is a big threat shooting jumpers. To the point you have to contest him hard from 20 feet in. Put that with him being a great rebounder and passer and you have a player playing All-Star basketball this season. The next step for him is to become a better defender, and that could come with him playing his natural position (PF). I like him alot..

gatorheelsParticipantI thought Lee would be this good.. he is pretty much doing what he did last year. People are just now starting to understand it isn’t all about simply being a product of D’Antoni’s system.
I was talking about Lee a lot over the summer saying he was underrated. I told people he lead the league in double doubles last season. Still, people didn’t think that was impressive because he plays in that offense.

GreenLanternParticipantHansborough and Harangody aren’t even in the same stratosphere in terms of the NBA level. Lee’s athleticism and energy is in the top half of the league’s big men.

quinceyhodgesand im not saying they will be as good as lee but its foolish to say they have no chane to be no better then just average players. same people also said kevin love wouldnt be as good as he is. and i think he will eventually be better then david lee and hes not as athletic

Disrespect_MeParticipantthe next step is Lee to play alongside a legit center

knicksfreakParticipantI’m glad Lee is finally getting respect as a top big man in the league. He has been vastly underrated by most people on this site. It’s something special when Kobe Bryant says Lee should be an allstar. Nobody remembers that Tim Duncan singled Lee out as his favorite player in the league a few years back. If Lee had a good PG to run the pick and roll with then the Knicks could be something special.

Disrespect_MeParticipantI remember I first seen him in the rookie-soph all star game
I thought he was a natural 3
I was disappointed when he packed on the weight
and became a PF-C
he played good against the Lakers though, the Knicks just gave up too much length and quickness
to Gasol and Odom down the stretch

Meditated StatesParticipantHis game has looked better in the Pro’s than it did in college though he has been an all star this year.

knicksfreakParticipantLee could never be a 3. He lacks the quickness and handles. Plus his jumper is pretty good now but his delivery is very slow. He is a great big man. If Hill can develop any kind of game then they could be a good frontcourt.

Disrespect_MeParticipantwell he’s not a natural three
he was an EFFICIENT mismatch ala Luol Deng
Larry Brown’s idea not mine
“Lee was installed as the Knicks’ starting small forward for a stretch of 13 games in December 2005 and January 2006. Lee posted 23 points on 10–11 shooting, along with 15 rebounds and three steals in 52 minutes as the Knicks went on to defeat the Phoenix Suns in triple overtime on January 2, 2006.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Lee_(basketball)his rookie year he was quicker and more athletic
as a PF Who is his perfect center to play with?

knicksfreakParticipantHis perfect center would obviously be Dwight Howard who would help with Lee’s only defense…interior D.

Disrespect_MeParticipantThabeet/Alabi
