New York Knicks: The Brightest Stars from the Darkest Age

3) David Lee

Okay! So maybe David Lee didn’t play any defense, but he racked up boards and buckets like nobody’s business. As he just retired at age 34 with a championship under his belt, he will go down as one of the most beloved double-double machines in the modern era.  He didn’t have a word to say except sheer support when his starting job was lost to Draymond Green out in Golden State, and that is exactly the attitude he brought to the New York Knicks for years despite being a part of a losing organization through his prime. Bravo D Lee.
