Why no Courtney Lee?

[Netted]

Considering who the Nets have looked at: Rush, CDR, Weaver, Foster, Hudson, etc... I find it strange they haven't brought in Lee. He's a guy that could easily go around #21.

Anyone read any Nets comments that could explain why he hasn't been brought in?

Has all this been a smoke screen and he's the real target?

I hope Lee is the real target. He's a great fit for the Nets at 21. He brings outside shooting, scoring, and defense, and has good character and a team mentality. His weaknesses are ball handling and slashing ability. This is the right skill set for a shooter off the bench.

Well, you see, this is the Nets we're talking about. We like letting shooters go (see House, Eddie & Moore, Mikki).

Lee should definitely be a target.

eddie house wanted to go to boston cuz he knew its a ticket to the finals... i mean he had a choice... kidd, carter, jefferson or ray, paul, kg.... ummm i woulda even choose boston...

but back to courtney lee... the kid was great... well from what i saw in the tourney... man id love to take lee with our 21st... seriously i would

Lee's also a very solid defender and would be great off the bench and eventually starting. He shoots a high % and if he's available at 21 and the Nets pass, it's a big mistake unless there is something more appealing. However, I think he'll be drafted higher then he should.

id take lee with the 21st... i really would... and from what i saw in the limited tourny he was very composed... id take westbrook (if hes really like monte (cuz i love montes game) ellis ) and take lee at the 21st.... then trade jefferson and a S & T krstic for a big.. bout omeka? i kno everybody wants brand... but unless he says he wants to go to the nets its goin to be a hard trade :/ cuz clippers are goin to want to gut ur team to aquire him...

arent there rumors for gilbert for brand?
