I saw this thought on another forum.

Gortat for Lee in December if Lee signs a one year deal with NY, which is appearing more likely by the day.

I've always loved Lee, for one, so understand that this post comes with a serious mancrush.  That aside, we're talking about one of the best rebounders in the NBA at any size, that's got some good athleticism.  He can finish, and play pretty decent D, and he's young.

NY likes Marcin Gortat.  That much has been previously attested to.  They need a center.  Eddy Curry is one of the biggest (in literal and figurative terms) emabrrassments in the NBA.  Too harsh?  Remember where he was drafted, and watch him fade into history before his 6th year in the NBA.  It's not going to be because of a career ending injury either.

I think the contracts will probably look similar.  My question is, how would Lee fit.

74% of his shot attempts are inside shots (82games), and he doesn't shoot the three... at all...  He shoots .355 on his 2 pt jump shots.  He was a more prolific (3 per 48 for Lee, 1.9 per 48 for Howard), but less efficient (2.6 Ast to TO for Lee, 3.4 for Howard) passer than Dwight.  He does pick up 10% of all available rebounds, but, all in all, I don't see him helping much on the offensive end with Dwight in the game. 

 His per of 19.07 puts him 9th among power forwards, ahead of Paul Millsap, Chris Anderson, and David West, but comments around NY indicate that he's a hindrance on defense.

With those thoughts in place, I'll make the case that the Magic should look elsewhere, despite the hypse, and his great rebounding numbers.
