I thought this really deserved its own thread. I was really hoping Mo T and Malik were playing ahead of him only because they were being showcased for trades but the fact that they're still playing ahead of him leaves me completely perplexed. Larry is playing Frye and was playing Nate a decent # of minutes. Is there something we don't know about Lee? Could Larry really believe the future of the team is better if Lee gets DNP-CDs while Mo and Malik (especially Malik) play.

Nate was inactive tonight. He needs to play over Crawford and Lee needs to play over Taylor.

I don't know, I'm mystified. Lee was a starter during our best stretch of the season. Maybe Isiah should just waive Malik outright.

Lee does NOT need to play over MoT. Let's not get silly...and Rose is one of the few knicks showing fire.

LB needs to find a way to get lee involved...but, let's concentrate on where we are having problems and not substitute one problem for another.

WHAT? Are you not paying attention? THIS YEAR IS OVER!!!! How about playing Lee so that he can be of more use to us next year. He's already as good as Rose overall his production for 40 mins would eclipse what Rose does. I can't imagine how anyone could think that he's not a better choice than Rose. LB just has a blind spot for Vets. If fact in terms of what this team needs i'd rather see Lee in there instead of Mo as well. Lee does the little things that we miss on the floor. He's bigger and more athletic than Rose. I think Rose at this point is a stronger defender, but not by much. Lee can PLAY!

Malik's fat and out of shape and useless even when he's in shape because he's a 6'4" PF. He and Jerome James should be on the injured reserve. Not all of Mo T's minutes should go to Lee but a few of them should because (a) Lee is a much bigger part of our future and (b) we can get anything we get from Mo T from either Frye or Curry anyway

And I don't buy the idea that salary is dictating Lee's and Malik's playing time. JJ is sitting and owed more than either of them. Frye is starting and earning a tiny fraction of what Malik and Mo are. Further, Lee (or his draft pick) was part of the same deal as Malik. And Isiah probably took back Malik's salary primarily to get Lee and SA's 2006 #1, meaning he values both Lee and SA 2006 #1 more than he values Malik.

cool, so I'll concede Rose, but for some reason rose get's that turnover and that play and that do all it takes not to give up the bucket desire that hasn't been around for awhile.

I'm not sure who loses out...I LOVE LEE. But LB is a dope.

I'm feeling more like Nate and Crawford should have been packaged with JJ to Seattle for ANYBODY ON THEIR TEAM.

what about something silly like Nate, Craw and JJ for Ray Allen?

Ray can hit the outside shot, and with franchise and jrose, we don't need either crawford or Nate.

It's starphuck city though, but on trade checker the change in team outlook was dead even:
Seattle Change in team outlook: 0.0 ppg, +3.8 rpg, and +2.7 apg.

I like Nate, and crawford is losing his mind slowly.

This is kind of Ongbocky in a way.

Ray's awesome. I think we'd have to include Frye to get him, which would not be worthwile.

Fish, I remember you wanted Larry to START David Lee. I'm not trying to be annoying but you can't seriously tell me that you don't mind the DNP-CDs for someone who you think should be starting, can you?

not if you're trying to move malik and mo and not if they're getting $7+ mil a piece. i know, it ain't our money, but b/c it is SOMEONE'S money, q2 and lee are providing bench duty.

don't you all see? lee goes against everything lb is trying to do to this team. he started him for 6 games straight and look what happened. lee breeds to much success for lb's taste. it's almost as though he is sabotaging this team into a 20 win season with his throw it-up-against-the-wall-and-let's-see-what-sticks lineups every night. lee should most certainly be playing more minutes if not starting every night. at this point, i don't even really care who starts as long as msg puts up the pics of those SAME FIVE FACES at the beginning of every game for the next 28. but after witness what lb has done for the first 50+, i know that would be like trying to get blood from a turnip.
Who's shooting too much now?

SAVE DAVID LEE!
Your signature has the words "David" and "Lee" in it. That's quite a theft, Nalod, on my part. I don't think I would have ever thought of putting the words "David" and "Lee" together to form one name had it not been for your signature.
