Double-Lee Good an All-Star?

My generation of Knick fans know what its like to root for a team without a leader. We know that for nearly a decade now, we haven't had even one superstar star all-star. As the NBA All-Star game approaches, talk surrounding David Lee as a possible all-star (reserve) has become a popular topic in the world of basketball.

I'm currently too lazy to get all the statistics and official numbers, but this I know: David Lee has helped turn the Knicks into a competitive team this season. For much of the average Knicks game, the offense runs through him.

He isn't afraid to take the make-or-break shot late in games. He's averaging an impressing 19 points, 11 rebounds, and approximately 3 assists a game (leads NBA centers). He is undersized at 6'9 for a center, yet he fearlessly takes on the biggest and toughest players in the league and often dominates them offensively.

Basically, the guy deserves to represent NY in Dallas on February 14th.

In closing, lets go David Lee and lets go Knicks (currently dishin' and swishin' against the Timberwolves, lead 28-8).

Trivia Question: Who was the last player that the Knicks sent to the All-Star game?
