David Lee, does this guy have a post game ? Or are the warriors just not going down to him enough. So far I have not been impressed with Lee, maybe because my expectation was high for him. While it is still early, I need more consistency from Lee, he really needs to define himself from being a hustle player to a skilled post guy who can hit from outside. We are going to Landry at end of games, not Lee's fault because Landry is balling crazy, but I will like to see David Lee defining himself in that manner, when we need a bucket we should be able to go to Lee, in return Lee needs to define his go to moves that will net us buckets.

Lee's shooting 8% poorer than last year and taking 3 less field goals, 1.5 less free throws.
He'll come around - he's not a 42% shooter, he's just not getting many calls inside and is relying too heavily on his jumper, which comes and goes. And don't forget, he's sharing his touches with Landry now. Last year, we ran almost everything through a triangle between Lee, Klay, and a corner shooter. It's easier to catch a rhythm when you get a ton of looks. Lee's still trying to find his touch while playing the same minutes without the same number of plays. As far as everything else, his turnovers are down, his FT% is up, he's averaging an extra assist per game, and he's leading the team at 9.9 RPG. The shooting is not far behind, don't worry bro. ![]() GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD ![]() ![]() |

David Lee's offensive game is not a "low block/back-to-the-basket" post game. David Lee is an athletic and quick power forward who can break down his defender off of the dribble, execute and move well both on the pick and roll as well as the pick and pop, put back missed shots, and maybe most importantly, David Lee can get opposing power forwards into foul trouble. Does David Lee's game have deficiencies? Yes; however, David Lee is a good player, and when teamed up with an inside presence like Andrew Bogut, David Lee can be most effective. |

Thanks for the insight guys the reason why I had inquired about Lee's post up game is to find out the dynamics of this team. Uptempo answerd the question I was wondering about which the answer is Lee does not have a post of game or limited 1 I should say. And 32 answered similar question concerning Bogut, mentioning Boguts overall lack of post game, so that leaves us with Landry as our primary post player. This is all important because I had imagined the Warriors would have a inside outside game which might involve double teams leaving an open man on the 3 point line. Looks like the Warriors will be play in allot of motion offense to open up shooters. It might seem like I am being overly critical of David Lee but I do like him, maybe my expectations are a bit higher than they should be.

Between the 3, Landry is our best post option, followed by the cleverness of Lee, then finally the size of Bogut.
That being said, the possibilities are endless for success here. When both guys are on, Lee and Landry are a phenomenal offensive tandem. When you're protecting a lead and looking to use clock, Lee and Bogut are the best choice. If you need to catch a team from behind, feed Landry and defend with Bogut. Lee and Bogut give you the best passing and rebounding. But regarding Landry's post game, I'll simply refer you to my cheat sheet:
