How is Chris Bosh a max player? He plays no defense and his team are terrible. They have the worst defense in the league and his team has more talent than the Knicks and they still lose.

Chris is on the wrong team. When Spreewell came to the Knicks, nobody knew he was as explosive as he turned out to be. I think Chris has a lot more to offer.

P. J. Carlesimo knew how explosive he was.

Who is saying Lee asked for ten Million this year? That is completely false and someone is making things up. I just dont think Bosh wins games like Wade and James do.

I don't think Bosh is the do all player, but I do think he is a valuable asset to another star player, whoever that might be, if he does come to the Knicks. Not to mention the few who will still be here, primed and ready for whatever big catches we make after next season, I think Bosh will definately be a part of our success.
I'll never trust this' team again.

You are absolutely right he doesn't win games like LeBron and Wade do. I absolutely 100% agree with you on that. When you compare David Lee and Chris Bosh though, I gotta say it's no contest in favor of Bosh.

King what do you deem is fair market value for Lee right now.

I am saying a 5 year $45mil deal is great.

I would say 10 million is fair market if Biedrins, Bogut get over 60 than Lee is worth 50. This is the first time he has got over 30 minutes for an extended period and he is performing at a very high level. If MDA and Walsh think numbers get inflated then they should have signed him over the summer or traded him. Now Lee has all the leverage in the situation and made himself more money by playing well this year.

Ok, don't really disagree with you. So if we give Lee 5years/50mill that's not a far cry from the 8 he was asking for over the summer.

not comparing Lee and Bosh if Bosh deserves 17 million Lee deserves 10 is what I am saying. David didnt ask for anything this summer

If Lee gets a max contract, good for him. Let him go to the team that gives him that contract because that will end up being one terrible, untradeable deal. Kinda like how Brian Grant's was for such a long time with the Heat. If a team wants to waste all its salary cap space on David Lee then their GM must be one giant idiot.

If you were Lee's agent--what would you ask for right about now? I would politely ask the Knicks for 6 years and 78MM$ and would not negotiate under 75.

This is a pretty dumb question. An agent is looking to get the best deal possible because they in turn get more money. If I was his agent, I would be asking for $100 million.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

I think Lee would be jumping out of his draws for 75mm. You could ask for 96 I believe 6 yrs 16mm but I don't think he comps there although they might. I do think that they will be looking at Emeka's 6 yrs 72mm and asking for 6-8mm over that.
