He is putting up some solid numbers as a back up is his value low or high?

a late first rounder at best

a mid-first rounder and an expiring should do it. He has more value to us than to other teams though. If you want, you can have Bud.

When combined with an expiring and/or Brooks/picks, Lee will net you a star player. That is how much Lee is worth. In other words, Lee is the new Landry everybody needing a SG is drooling over because they think he can be had since he is backing up an elite player (like Landry with Scola). They are quite wrong, of course. Lee is not going to go for cheap, if he goes at all.

Courtney Lee for Taj Gibson.

Bulls get a starting 2 guard. (Courtney is better than Keith Bogans or Ronnie Brewer and is cheaper than trading for JR Smith)

Rockets get a younger Battier type 3/4 tweener forward.
He can't shoot threes but he's an excellent rebounder and shot blocker.

Rockets
F: Battier, Gibson
F: Scola, Hayes
C: Miller. Hill
G: Lowry, Brooks
G: Martin, T.Williams

Bulls
F: Deng, Korver
F: Boozer, J.Johnson
C: Noah, Asik
G: Rose, Watson
G: Lee, Bogans

are you trying to start one PG and 4 PFs?
how many PF do we need?

Scola, Hayes, Hill, Gibson, Patterson

With Brooks back you know Adelman loves to run his 2 PG backcourt so Lee's mins are going to go down. Not to mention trying to see what T-Will can do.

If we're not trading Brooks then we need more rebounding and shotblocking, both are Gibson's strong points.

I would rather trade Brooks than Lee however.

Most Bulls' fans would love him, but we can't move Gibson with Boozer's history and Noah being out. However, I would do our pick next year, top 3 protected, for Lee. I believe you guys are in lux tax and this would help get you closer to the line. We could send Bogans, but you don't want him.

I believe we have the Suns' second rounder this year, you could have that too. Lee would be PERFECT for us.

TWill is not going to do anything
i see him going to D-League soon
Bud's min will go down
Lee can do all the stuff Bud do
Lee is smaller but it's not like Bud can guard SF anyway

At least let Williams put on a Houston jersey before judging him.
He's already proved he's too good for the D-Leauge by averaging a triple double.

smh at T-Will going to the DLeague... Only reason he went in NJ is because he was in trouble.

Lee is not better than Ronnie Brewer, and we need a (long-term starting) C, not more pfs

getting playing time in d-league is better than sitting on the bench doing nothing
he's active (which mean he got the jersey on) just not on the court

Lee is not better than Ronnie Brewer,

Their career numbers are very similar but I'll take the SG that can make a 3 pointer and hit his free throws (Lee)

Lee 9.9 ppg. 2.8 rpg 1.4 apg, 1.1 spg
Brew 10.0 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 1.8 apg, 1.5 spg

why the image of Lee missing technical free throw appeared on my mind
anyway
i'll take Lee over Brewer

rocketsballin · Post #18 » by **rocketsballin** » Mon Dec 20, 2010 11:15 pm

i'll take lee cuz he's younger, potential, 3pters and defend pgs.

Baller 24 · Post #19 » by **Baller 24** » Tue Dec 21, 2010 4:25 pm

Yeah definitely think Lee is the better of the two. Better defender, shooter, and passer/ball handler. I'd hold onto Lee, in Orlando when given minutes and the starting job, he was averaging very solid numbers, I think he's still in the process of developing.

PS I want someone like Marc Gasol, that'd be interesting.

Aaron Brooks · Post #20 » by **Aaron Brooks** » Tue Dec 21, 2010 10:45 pm

Probably a mid 1st, but not this years draft because of the eventual lockout
