Does this prove that Lee is a keeper?

Lee is an amazing fantasy basketball player. Mostly because fantasy basketball doesn't really measure defense in the same way real basketball does (ie their best measures of defense are blocks and steals, hardly indicative of defense in real basketball)
He's a good basketball player, but hardly a great one.
I agree with this post.^ that.
DLee is easy to like. He hustles hard, and wears NYC with pride.. he deserves winning more than anyone else... but he's yet to be a 'winner'.. As, the Knicks haven't been 'winners' in a long time..
I'd be interested to see how he does going back to his normal position, having to play against some of the big men he's had to out of position is no easy task, and likely caused his D numbers to go down... though it's hard to tell if they'd go up much regardless..
At the right price, as Donnie says, he'll be a great sign for the Knicks... if he's asking for too much, if he thinks he's some legit all star cause he was subbed in and asks for more than he's worth, we will part ways... of course most Knick fans as said would love to see him return- his hustle is appreciated by all...
but lets not pretend his talent has amounted to any sort of winning correlation over the passed few years, Knicks haven't won and he's been in the thick of it... you can blame all that on poor coaching, etc but when it comes down to it, it is what it is.... given, the same thing can be said about Bosh and their record [to an extent]..
I do think Lee has improved dramatically, which isn't totally unexpected.. and hope he continues to do so upon going to his normal position.. I do think he is notch or two below Bosh status though.. As i said earlier, Bosh will get his numbers and change games/seasons... Lee will get 12 pts and 10 bounds a game... having a huge impact on a game/season- i don't think so..
Bosh is an overall better player, so i think the team would be willing to pay him a bit more for his talent.. i think theyll do what they can do keep Lee as well.
