He's played 250 minutes in that span of time...he got pushed out in favor of the youth movement.

I'm aware that Orlando wasn't doing him any favors. He got cold right around this time in 14-15 as well however. Just thought it was worth mentioning.

A lineup of Irving, Shump/JR, LeBron, Love, and Frye is going to be lethal from the outside.

Frye will be able to pull the C away from the basket and let Kevin work in less traffic.

Bingo. This is really what I am hoping for. We can let Frye take Love's role of standing at the 3 point line, and put Love in the post/mid range and let him go to work where he is best and most comfortable. If this turns into a better fit that maximizes Love and makes him more comfortable, it could be priceless.

And on defense, we can let Frye take the taller of the opposing bigs so Love can still match up better on defense.

And amazing for Kyrie/Lebron drives Love/Lebron post ups.

REALLY liking how quick his release is. That's a tough shot to defend when's it's a 6'11" guy shooting with a quick release.

Who did we get? Charlie Frye? Channing Tatum?

If the Cavs got Channing Tatum, @The Oi couldn't concentrate in his daily life.

Overall Channing Frye is a below average defender. Opponents shoot .8% better against him than they average.

The guy is deadly when left wide-open. He averages 51.7% on wide-open threes with a 73.2% eFG% on all wide-open shots, and averages 40.7% on catch-and-shoot 3s with a 56.5% eFG% on all catch-and-shoot shots.

Don't expect Frye to make or break the season. I don't think this is a trade that puts us into the top-tier (Warriors, Spurs) of teams; but, it does let us match up much better against the top-tier of teams. Overall it is a net positive, even though I'm sad to lose Andy.

I'm confused. Cavs are the number 1 team in the East. Cavs blew the spurs out of the water and already and are heavy favorites to at least make it to the finals and we have one of the best players of all time. What do they have to do to be a top tier team? hahaha

Guys we (yes i said we) are an elite team that is maxed out on money. This saves money plus they got a player that can move and fits better with our current stars. What else do people want?

This was a positive moves the needle slightly but sometimes thats all it takes.

Carol Channing.


Amazing trade by Griffin. The one thing this team lacked was someone willing to jack a few 3 balls.

I mean, what can you really draw from 32 three point attempts over a 17 game period? It's such a small sample size for a guy who has shot 120+ attempts on the year at a 40% clip.

In those 17 games, he only played more than 10 minutes 7 times. If you look at his career stats, he's a guy that shoots the ball better the more he plays.

We'll see how much run he gets but if the Cavs can carve out a regular role for him with steady minutes, I have no doubt he'll be fine.

His catch and shoot numbers are great (40% from 3). He's going to get a ton of those opportunities on the Cavs.

Now lets compare his teammates from yesterday to today.

Are you desecrating the name of C.J. Watson?

 

[cavsfever]

I always thought Frye was a pretty weak defender (haven't bothered to check his advanced stats lately). If he is a legit defender who can defend Cs then this trade looks a lot better...
