If they're taking on Curry, they better get more than Lee. Kwame at least got himself in shape, and wanted to play well (he just flat our blows). Curry could care less about being in shape, its easy to see, he knew the majority of the offseason who his coach was, and he came into camp looking like he just left fat camp and failed miserably. There is a hell of a reason the Knicks will give up damn near anyone to rid themselves of Curry, and we only know probably a quarter of the story, but if they're THAT desperate, there's got to be more there that we don't know. I mean ya, dude may be a nice guy, but he might also just be jolly. Either way, Lee isn't worth taking him on. I would put money on the fact that Eddy stays a knick the rest of his contract then retires due to severe fatness. At least Oliver Miller figured out how to play while fat. Eddy can't even do that. lol. Yall are fucked. If they’re taking on Curry, they better get more than Lee. Kwame at least got himself in shape, and wanted to play well (he just flat our blows).

While David Lee has some nice numbers, in fact better then Odom's, the fact of matter is that under Mike D'Antoni's system, David Lee has the ability to put up inflated numbers in points, rebounds, etc. With the Lakers, Odom has to contend with rebounds against Bynum (during the first half of the season) and Pau Gasol. Odom has also been the Lakers 6th man. If Odom were in fact with the Knicks in Lee's place, I've no doubt that his points would be higher, rebounds would be comparable, and his steals, assists, and blocks might be a bit higher as well. I think Lee is actually be overvalued. In fact, if you put Lee on the Lakers, his numbers would drop considerably. Dime Magazine says: Fallinup - The last thing that I’ll say about the Lee/Odom debate is this. I think that you’re drastically undervaluing Lee. Look at his numbers right now versus Odom’s. * L.O. - 9.4 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 1.1 bpg, 1.4 spg * Lee - 15.9 ppg, 11.7 rpg, 0.3 bpg, 0.9 spg - AK" Time to elaborate on the below.

Knicks would have nobody to rebound the ball. D. Lee is not getting traded at deadline. Knicks will not be making any trades @ deadline folks. Trust me! Bad trade.
