It is hard to compare because their games are so different. But I would have to take Curry. You can find other guys to give you alot of what Lee brings (not many but there are some). There are only a handful of bigmen in the league that can score like Curry. If Curry could just improve his defense and passing then it would not even be close.

One could argue though that Lee is more valuable to us on the court...regardless of defense.

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

Lee needs to prove he can score a little. Develop a move. One damn move David!
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

What's wrong with 11 PPG off the bench without even having to have plays called for him? Not everyone has to be a low-post scoring beast.

If he's ever going to be great instead of good, he needs to develop a jumpshot.

Sure, all players have things to work on. Lee has one or two. Curry has one or two hundred.

Please stop with the David lee stuff already. He is a energy player on a not so good team, that makes him look like a very good player. Like I stated before he does not need to start until he can make an open jumper instead of trying to dunk every shot.
In the Knick of time. Knickal for Your thoughts.
