"Wilson Chandler, starting at power forward, had 27 points but took a shot to the mouth.

When Lee wanted to score, he did. Rebounds, his favorite pastime, were plentiful. And before leaving late Wednesday night, he was rewarded with a precious commodity he rarely saw in five seasons here: a win.

As much as he tried not to gloat, Lee's satisfaction was evident as he led the Golden State Warriors to a thrilling 122-117 victory over his former team.

Lee had a season-high 28 points, nearly matching the production of Amar'e Stoudemire (33 points), the flashy star who replaced him in a summer roster shuffle. The comparison-contrast game seemed a secondary concern, however, as the Knicks (3-5) lost their third straight game after another messy performance."
