I'm sorry, but today's game vs. the Nets only reinforces how bad he is (regardless of the final outcome of the game). He can't do anything. Awful defense, missing easy inside shots - sometimes begging for the ball and then badly missing...

Please DA, end this experiment. Buy him out and give Mickey and the other bigs some run.

Everyone is playing incredibly poorly. No need to single out Lee for it.

Right, but as my post mentioned, this game is a microcosm of Lee's whole season. So yes, there is a need to mention it.

He's just an expiring contract now. Was always a long shot that he'd generate any real interest with his production.

This whole team is terrible right now. Consecutive losses to the Lakers and Nets?!?
There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'

 the cast of usual suspects
kelly needs a pink tu-tu,didn't follow his miss and got out hustled and later looked for marcus to bail him out as clock runs down
,david lee is a black hole and couldn't hold a nice kelly pass even-can't make a layup
 turner does some nice inside work and a fall away and then flubs a pass to marcus,a real headshaker and then takes a three when he should have gone inside again
feel bad for jerebko did good job of rebounding and playing defence-had the right shot
marcus and crowder gotta give kelly a slap
and cut his hair

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
He definitely has more backboard only (no rim) lay-ups than the average NBA player. I see a role for him on the team as a veteran big man who can help facilitate the offense, but he should only be used sparingly and like every few games when we need something different.

Don't all the stats say we are worse when Lee is on the court? Just stop playing him. I thought we were supposed to be one of the smart teams....

He definitely has been a disappointment so far this year. I expected him to come in in some leadership kinda role, how wrong I was. His body language suggests he isn't very comfortable in Stevens' system too. Shame.

What bothers me most about Lee is, he takes minutes away from KO, and Mickey. Lee has no future on this team, the C's should be looking high and low for a new home for him.

he's ok, I don't think he's entirely awful. I believe we bought him in for veteran leadership or his role in GSW. However, he is on a rapid decline in my opinion, and we do have a logjam at the pf spot

What can Lee, Sully net us? Hell, we even had a logjam at the guards position. Can we somehow put some of the players in a package or 3 way deal to net us a capable and upgrade at SF or Center?
