I read somewhere that Lee died before finishing this film, however I am confused because this movie seems very complete and like it ended well.
What other scenes were supposed to be in the movie?

No Lee died in a matter of weeks after production was finished. He never got to see the premier!!!

No. He began filming Game of Death before ETD. He stopped filming GOD to complete the ETD project. This is why you will see GOD was completed in 1978. They decided to finish it even though Lee is only in it for about 10 minutes!!!

The only reason Lee is in it (GoD) for 10 minutes is less about the fact (GoD) was incomplete, and more because that bastard Clouse decided not to use as much of the footage as possible and changed the story so that it couldn't be utilised in the 1978 movie.

Bruce Lee finished all of his work for Enter the Dragon. He just never got to see the absolute final product before he died.
The last footage Bruce Lee filmed was the opening fight sequence with Sammo Hung. He completed every shot and was ecstatic with the way the film was coming together during editting. He was very proud of the film and excited for its release, after which he was to continue shooting Game of Death. Horrible loss!!
There are reports that Bruce did actually see the final cut of the film at the Warner studios. The print he saw though, was missing the music and optical effects.
