Lee is a great passer and a solid passer for a big man. Dont get gassed up fellas he aint no point guard

I want to excited about Lee but ive already been dissapointed too many times with these knicks. At what point would you guys feel that Lee is the real deal and not some young dude who is fooling us with his excuberance and athleticism?

Lee has played great...Jason Kidd? Not really. He's not a point guard, and typically does not put up 8+ assists a game. He can pass, so I wouldn't be surprised with say 5 assists a game over his career, but not 8+.

Im not trying to say hes exactly like jkidd

like jkidd is a passer first rebounder second, lee is a rebounder first passer second

LOL, come on guys... J Kidd he definitely is not... he's a good passer for a bigman, that's for sure though.

i'd compare David Lee to an athletic version of LJ (during his Knick years)... he plays w/the energy & spunk of JYD but has the passing ability & basketball smarts of LJ... if he can develop that outside shot, he can be our own version of CWebb in his prime.

Definitely not LJ or CWebb. Those two were and are as talented a couple of low post scorers could get, especially LJ. Yes, the back injuries killed him, but even after, he was unstoppable at times. He was just as important a player as anyone else on those teams.\

I personally say let DLee be himself. Save the comparisons until he develops a certain skill set, particularly his jumper.

Speaking of LJ, I miss the big L sign...

It was such a cool team thing, like shaved heads during the playoffs. The entire team wearing black on black sneakers and socks (ala Jordan). Didn't they try all wearing headbands like a year or two ago?

Ahhh the good ole days
