Lee, Gallo and Douglas gives you 3 guys who can handle, ball and really shoot the ball. You simply cannot collapse on Lebron with those guys on the floor. Chandler has a solid mid range game and can play 3 positions.If your talking about building around Lebron having an all star forward like Lee who can shoot, handle, rebound, finish around the basket and shoot > 55% (cant inflate THAT stat) is the best place to start. You can add some size and defense with that $8mm you save with Lee vs Bosh. Its not even a debate (so dont bother Sergio)
That sounds really good in the regular season, but in the playoffs you need studs (no perez hilton)...Bosh will command a stronger presence and is just a better talent. Lebron off of winning 66 in the regular season and getting run when it counts. Bosh.
Bosh and Lee as far as the playoffs are pretty much unknowns.
Really, the question is balancing out the need for talent (Bosh) vs. depth (Lee & another 2nd/3rd tier player).
In our case, I think if you are able to land Lebron, then the next need you have to address is some depth (and size).
I don't want to over hype Gallo, but I think he has shown signs that he will be more clutch in the big game than Bosh ever will be.
And I also think Lee can be a way better passer than Bosh could be, and I fully believe Lee will develop a lethal three point shot in 2 years.
Now, if we could add Dirk instead of Lee, then I might go for it as far as side kicks for Lebron.
