Somehow David Lee scored 18 points on 8-of-8 shooting earlier this month and I totally overlooked it. I have already fired the guy who gets paid minimum wage to tell me which videos I should be making and am back to doing it myself (good help is so hard to find these days), but to make it clear to Spurs fans that I harbor no irrational hatred for David Lee, I am uploading this highlight video as compensation and as an apology.
This video is a throwback to what could be called “prime” David Lee. Like, back when he was on the Warriors and Knicks and even made a couple of all-star teams. He’s always had skill scoring around the basket as well as popping those midrange jumpers, but his defensive struggles always prevented his teams from having much success in the wins column. Not anymore! The Spurs have proven once again that they can take losers and turn them into winners as long as the loser’s name isn’t Stephen Jackson. I want some of that magic sent to me in a vial so I can sprinkle it on my head and then maybe not be a loser anymore, either.
