Both are free agents, if you were a GM and had a choice between the two who would you pick?

I'd take Millsap. More shot blocking.

millsap should come 2 or 3 per cheaper then lee, so i'd take millsap, if it was an identical contract i would have to think about it, but probably would take lee, when it was all said and done.

I really hope this is a joke. David Lee plays absolutely no defense. He benefits from playing on a bad team.

Milsap put up numbers on a playoff team.

MILSAP ALL DAY.

Lee doesn't play any defense, but he's a better rebounder and scorer then Paul Millsap is.

It's hard to measure how much playing on a bad team does for you vs. being on a playoff team, but Lee brings it every single night, I don't feel as comfortable saying that about Millsap.

Both are the type of players you want on your team. They produce and hustle. I probably take Lee because he has better offensive skills. I would sign either of these guys over Boozer.

Millsap hands down. He brings hustle and heart every night and he is a fan favorite. Lee doesn't do anything much better then Millsap can so why go after him?

Lee,

He is a better scorer, rebounder, passer. And he is taller than milsap. Millsap is short for a power forward that is why he slipped into the 2nd round.



I think he is a better defensive player too.

But he will command more money than millsap.

He's certainly not a better defensive player. But his defensive rebounding is a huge plus.

Lee in a heartbeat. I'm tired of undersized Jazz bigs.

Well... think Kirilenko...

Anyway, Lee vs Millsap's a tough call.; Lee seems to be a little bit more consistent, while Millsap's a better rounded player; both rotation players in my eyes.

Guess I'd go with Millsap though...

Lee, especially if Millsap wants 8-9 mil per season.

That was a better team than people give them credit for. AK and Harpring would have brought us to the playoffs had they been healthy all year.
