Frustrated Knick Fan Tracker: David Lee Wants Out

If you flick back through previous months' posts, anywhere between November last year and May this year, you'll find pretty much weekly mentions of David Lee.

He's the big white dude who looks like he should do big white dude numbers (4.6 points per game, 8.2 rebounds per game), but who is in reality The Laird Of The Double Doubles.

So of course, it makes sense that The New York Knicks, the franchise with the greatest responsibility to it's fans and the worst track record in recent memory of both on and off court policy, has pi$$ed off their most consistent performer so much that he kinda wants out.

"At the start of this process I was really excited to be in New York, I thought it wouldn't be too difficult to work something out, but now we're forced to start looking at different options with sign-and trades and stuff like that," Lee told ESPN.com. "I'm sure it's going to be something we're not expecting, it's going to be something that's very complicated. But my gut would be that it's going to be difficult at this point to get a long-term deal done with New York, that's my gut."

The Knicks are gonna look so attractive to LBJ next summer.
