Lee Putting Off Surgery Until Warriors' Playoff Run Ends

OAKLAND (CBS Sports) - Warriors Forward David Lee should not be playing, by normal standards.

He has a torn hip flexor, which was supposed to keep him out of the playoffs. Instead, he has played in three games since the injury. And while it has only been for a tiny amount (11 total minutes vs. San Antonio, including almost eight in Game 4), he's still gutting it out. But, eventually, this thing is going to need fixing.

So why are the Warriors letting him on the floor? Read the rest of the story from CBS Sports.
