I want Lee over Bosh. I also want Nate over LeBron or any other top free agent.

I'm really excited about the prospect of being in the lottery every year. Mediocrity baby.

You will be in the lottery with Bosh just like toronto has been. We have to get Lebron or Wade.

WOuld you rather have Bosh at 6 yrs 102 million or Lee at 5 yrs 50 million

That really is the question because as VDesai said, if the difference means keeping Nate, then I think you have to go with the Nate/Lee combo. Plus, we can always resign Lee and then do a sign and trade with Toronto for Bosh, if it comes to that.

This is what I assumed the question was. If the poll said would you rather have Lee for 9 million per or Bosh for 9 million per than I doubt you would see as many people voting for Lee

It's impossible to know the answer to that without knowing who else we could sign with the remaining money. I mean, would you rather have Lee for $9 mil/annually or the 14/8 Wilcox of 2 years ago for $1 mil annually?

That would suck when they play Boston, LA etc. We need a legit center + Bosh.

If Bosh and Lee switched teams right now the Knicks wouldnt be better. Bosh would have to guard a five and he cant stop Lee what makes you think he can wrestle with Howard and all the other bigs? Lee has his way with Bosh this weekend and I am not saying Lee is better but Bosh doesnt guard anyone either

in all fairness to bosh, he's playing on 1 leg. he's flawed, yes, but he's also the 2nd best young big man in the league behind dwight. bosh is 24 and will be the best pf in the game shortly.

I think he is very good but if he was on the knicks right now he would be playing center. Can he carry a team and is he worth 17 million per year

If the criteria for a max player is whether they can carry a team, I think the only 2010 FAs that are max-worthy are Lebron and Wade.

it's very difficult to compare players on two different teams with two different set of circumstances.

but bosh's team did win 47 games 2 years ago and should've advanced if not for a freak injury to garbajosa. and the team did make the playoffs again last year despite not having a legitimate wing player and injuries. big men can't carry teams without that guard (with duncan being the lone exception).

if you pose any gm the question of lee for $10 or bosh for $17, they all take bosh. he is an olympian, he is marketable, and he's got a great skillset. d'antoni would have him playing out of his mind if he was in ny. this year is a blip and aberration. nothing went right for the raptors. but they will bounce back strong next season if they re-sign marion.

you are...but if biedrins makes $10, lee may get $10, dalembert + chandler all get $10, then bosh is worth at least $5 mil more than those guys. bosh is not a batman, and if anybody brings him in to be batman, they may be dissapointed but he's still a top young player that will get better. he needs some coaching but the only concern i have with him is his knees. he's been missing games the past few years from regular wear and tear on them.

that's crazy talk... if Lee & Bosh changed teams we'd have a 25 & 10 guy in the frontcourt that can take his man off the dribble, shoot over him & knock down J's, or post him up down low & who can block a shot or 2 per game & pull down 9 or 10 rebounds a night... how do u figure we wouldn't be improved w/Bosh on this team over David Lee... come on dude, we know D Lee's ur boy but let's get real... Eddy Curry manhandled Dwight Howard during a game i watched once, did that mean Superman wouldn't have improved us if he'd switched places w/Curry? Bosh is nursing an injury & not at 100%, Lee is playing the best basketball of his career... if Lee can only handle Bosh when both those guys at opposite extremes of health & production then what does that tell u? that Bosh is the better player.

If Bosh is so great why isnt his team any better this year? He is getting a block a game and his defense is porous. All I am saying is Bosh isnt in the same league as Wade and Lebron so dont waste max money on him.
