if he has a veteran presence i'm missing it
 lee is missing easy layups ,not hitting foul shots,  playing hero ball with a heave long pass
he does the hard work but blows the finish -the celts arn't san francisco every possesion is important

Pretty sure he was 1-2 for the game, and the one miss looked like he got fouled on... and 2-2 on free-throws... alrighty then.

He's been wickedly disappointing, but his last 5 games he's averaged 7.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.2 assists with 59% shooting (and 77% shooting from the line) in 15mpg... That's per-36 of 17 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists.... which is not too far off from his career averages (He's just a season removed from averaging 18/9/2 with 52%/78% shooting).  That suggests to me there's still some game there and if he gets the minutes, he'll eventually show it. 

It's going to be interesting, because I still get the feeling that we could sell high on Sully, which would mean minutes for Lee... but I could also see Lee's contract included in a trade.   Gonna be a fun season.

sorry thought he missed the first of two on the fouled layup,he did set nice screens-maybe it is timing or maybe his lift isn't there -didn't play much last year, had a easy pre season and got sick on top of not coming in best of shape after wold championship partying-amir talks about still getting used to new teamates ,i have been hard on lee since philly-he is supposed to score points and he isn't and has no mid range game but there will be nights the pick and roll will dominate-

eh, we have has a lot of shots very close to the hoop not go in this year. Lee is playing alright for a 8th or 10th guy. I guess he is a disappointment if you thought he was going to come in and get 15 a game.

That heave was at such a bad time. Right when you just want to run a set and control things. TP to LB.. Spot on..

I am kind of with Rollie on this one.  I guess David's numbers are OK/good, but for some reason he's not passing my eye test so far. It's the missed/blocked layups with little to no contact involved.  I know everyone will miss lay ups here and there, but when most of your shots are layups maybe it just stands out more.

I know he is a good passer, etc. but I would like to see his minutes go to KO or JJ or even Jordan Mickey.  I feel all of those guys have more of a future with this squad than Lee (although he is a huge upgrade to G Wallace).
