Sorry this is poor reasoning when comparing players as you could start handicapping at different levels of team success.

This is nothing new. Lee's always put up good numbers on bad teams.

Okay so Kevin Love is like the 6th or 7th best power forward in the NBA then

Kevin Love put up a 30 pt 30 rebound game, I think against us. I don't think Lee has ever sniffed that.

Doesn't change the fact that Lee's skills compliment these Knicks better and he is healthy unlike Amare

Not really, he doesn't play defense.

I did like David Lee as a Knick, as he was one of the few bright spots of the Mike D'Antoni era, but his teams have never won or finished above .500. It's only now in GS, that they are showing some signs of life.

What was Sota's record that season? What has been Sota's winning % since drafting Love? How many times have the Wolves been in the lottery since drafting Love?

So 1 game sums up a position for 1 player meanwhile several games of well above average stats stamps a player down....

What Chocolate Factory did you come from?

Bizarro world of logic

For the record here is a frightening stat for you to look at....

Did you black out David Lee's 37/20/10 performance

Lee needs to play alongside a center who defends. Someone like ummm Tyson Chandler

Lee doesn't defend enough, Woodson brings him in off the bench.

Amare gets injured again we get knocked out in the 1st round again playing Meloball

As fragile as Amare is, when healthy, he's still a more impactful player than Lee.

30 pt 30 rebounds games are exclusive company. Lee's had some nice games in his career. He's clearly not in Kevin Love's stratosphere though.

So is Lee it was first 30/20/10 since Kareem Abdul Jabbar 1976.... have you heard of him?

So your arguments are conditional and switch based on who we're comparing a player against.

Well keep this in mind when voters cast their ballots for MVP at season's end

Are you seriously trying to compare David Lee to Kevin Love? We're not really debating this are we?

We're not but when you make statements like....

"Lee's teams always suck"

as the reason this separates he and Amar'e then you can't turn around and say Kevin Love is worlds better than Lee based on stats

Your arguments are what you say they are.....QUOTIFIED

The first 7 seasons of David Lee's career, his team ended with a below .500 record.

This season, 15 games in, he's finally over .500.

Lee's a very nice player. I don't think he's led the league in rebounding like Kevin Love has.

Love is 1st Tier, maybe the best Power Forward in the league currently.

Lee's maybe 3rd or 4th Tier. Not an impactful player. Put's up double doubles. Nothing wrong with that, just not in Love's company obviously.

We actually should have signed him when Walsh was clearing space at 7-8MM but waited and could have grabbed him for 10 had we locked him up. Lee is an elite rebounder and accomplished scorer. He hasn't played with talent that ever warrants a double. I think he is just as impactful as any big man we have on this team.

Tyson only scores on wide open put backs and rarely scores the ball. He's an elite help defender, but below average rebounder/shotblocker.

And Lee would be a much better fit than Amare. Also take into account the 3.4 assists you get and which combined with 15 points makes him and elite player at his position.
