    I don't think they are the same player. I don't see Lee as a "banger". He is an elite garbage player. Racks up points and rebounds. Doesn't "bang". Doesn't give hard fouls. Doesn't play defense. Can't play Center. All things Ronnie does.

    Except if he just accepts his qualifying offer this season, he isn't going to be traded during the season. Playing on the qualifying offer gives that player a no-trade clause in his contract, and if he is traded, his bird rights are waived. And there's no way he would waive his bird rights going into free agency next season.

    David Lee was the Knicks primary Center and put up 16 ppg 12 rpg with a PER of 19. Our second unit is built to run-n-gun and David Lee would fit in perfectly at Center.

    I would really like to think I was kidding, but I don't think I was...hmm. yeah....

    When you have worked 10+ hours for the last 10 days straight everything just sort of rolls together.

    I wouldn't mind having a big that can score in the post consistently.

    I hear ya, my last day off was September 4th and my first day off will be the 19th!

    OT this month will pay for my season tickets, so that is a bonus I guess.
