I don't think that was the case with K-Hump in Minnesota (he did score 19 pts. a game in a tough conference, but not sure how much pressure he really had playing for a lousy team).

David Lee has similar physical attributes but played 3-4 years at Florida and was subject to intense pressure, defenses designed to stop him, etc....
When there is a big rebound up for grabs late in a game, David Lee is not going to be nervous. Neither would PJ Tucker, as he has a big-time NCAA pedigree as well (scored some huge baskets under more pressure than any regular season Raptors game could ever produce).
Defences were designed to stop Humprhies at Minnesota... defences were never designed to stop David Lee at Florida. Florida had several other weapons.
