After watching last night, I think that Lee can really take his game to the next level by pumping up a little. It looks like he has a very nice frame that with the right training can become ripped and really strong. His upper body needs to be more defined. He looked a little weak out there last night. If he can do that he can be a monster. He can be the white anthony mason. Lee is already a great athlete but if he spends more time in the gym lifting weights he can be a real force. I don't really see him as at the 3 position. I think he should be a 4 but with the ability to play the 3 if the Knicks want to play a big lineup.

I disagree, Lee's game is based more on fluidity than brute force. I think if he bulks up (like Przybilla did, the kid looks jacked) it will only hurt his game.

I like effort on defense, he is not afraid to get in the face of better forwards, and he continues to work hard on that part of his game, he has nice moves to the basket, he passes well. He does need a better mid range jumper, but so do alot of other players who have been around longer than he has, he is a rookie so he will make rookie mistakes, but he has a good head on his shoulders and he knows how to use it.
I am glad we didn't give him away in the Curry trade, he has a bright future here, as well as Frye and Nate too.

I still would have given him up in the curry trade, if it would save us all those picks, but I like david lee's game alot too, he's a good passer and looks like he gets into the rythem of the game easily, hopefully he can become one of extra possession kind of guys like ben wallace and... uh i dont edward najera, you know what I mean.
