Knicks' David Lee Embodies Old School Presence Everyone seems to want to classify New York as a specific type of sports town. The Yankee tradition that stands as much of a hallmark to this great town as the lights on Broadway, combined with a chasm separating the old faithful American Leaguers from Fake Oakley Sunglasses the you gotta believers from the National League, supplies enough evidence that baseball owns the Big Apple. I oblige to the American past time enthusiasts who know the exact days before pitchers and catchers arrive in spring training and anticipate competitive ball from both teams this season. I begrudgingly admit, however, that I don't equate the amount of hysteria and excitement associated with going to a baseball game as do to heading out to the middle of Manhattan to catch a Knicks game. Many might have agreed with me in the past when you could baste in the joys of watching one of the greatest centers of all time, Patrick Ewing, dominate, along with a pugnacious, free shooter in John Starks and a scrappy, trunk of a man with a junkyard dog mentality, Charles Oakley, who next to Dennis Rodman was probably the best player in the league with the least amount of talent, forming a potent trio. Those Knicks embodied an edgy, unforgiving machismo that New Yorkers tend to showcase to the rest of the country. We took pride in those Knicks and the Garden frequently buzzed with an ultraviolet roar that Wholesale Oakley Sunglasses bounced off the walls and beamed down from the rafters. The departure Fake Oakley of Ewing and Co. and the vaudevillian juggling act of talent by such frivolous general managers like Scott Layden and the current Czar of misappropriated funds, Isaiah Thomas, ranks the Knicks just below the Annual Westminister Dog Show for hot items currently on sale in this town. Never losing faith or denouncing my team, I dismiss the fact that the Knicks are hopeless, and whether or not basketball is considered to be the accepted sport of New York or not, accentuate the positives without overtly criticizing a sub 500 team. The Knicks no longer suffocate opponents with bruising defense typified by Oakley but one man has reinvented hustle and resiliency, and along with a Frodo hairstyle, has single handedly injected fervor back into the Garden even during nauseas defeats. David Lee jumps off the bench bounding and astounding (I'll never shy away from borrowing from Walt Clyde Frazier) and forces opponents, and more importantly, fans, to eye his every move. He doesn't start. He might not be on the floor during crunch time. But somehow he's in the top ten in rebounds and it's only his second year in the league. And his back to the basket tip in with .1 seconds left to beat Charlotte a few months back should easily win an ESPY, of course if anybody actually watches the show next year, please do let me know. Lee's far from an all star just yet because of his plodding defense, plus he's wearing a Knicks Cheap Oakley sale jersey, but he's simply electric. Kind of like in "Teen Wolf" when Michael J. Fox embraces his canine capabilities and swarms after every ball. Okay maybe not that rabid, but similar in many ways to back in '92 '93 when no one really knew much about Starks and he'd fling his warm ups off and instantly pop off a couple of threes to ignite the crowd. Lee remains an elite athlete with innate skills that outweigh the regular playground star but it's refreshing to view a player earn his flight through constant motion and desire rather than banking on unnatural skills. The Knicks might not be winning much and baseball news continues to overflow the tabloids but at least there's a semblance of those hardnosed, vicious Knick clubs that owned the city for most of the '90s presently on display at the Mecca of basketball. Published by Everett Fell I'm passionate about living and capturing life on paper with colorful Cheap Oakley words. I tend to focus on sports but never fall short of providing my insight and observations on all that goes on in the world. I grew u. View profile Lee is currently seventh in the league in rebounds with an average of 10.8 a game and is first in field goal percentage at 61.05%. He also will participate in the Rookie Sophomore Game on Saturday during the NBA All Star weekend.
