Woj: Clippers close to landing Channing Frye

[icewill36]

such a stupid move by the clippers. why would you be trying to move your most athletic wing player for channing ****ing frye when youre looking at a 2nd round against warriors?

you cant have enough athletes against them.


i like doc a coach, but hes absolute shit as a GM

Stacked.

Why would Orlando waive him?!?!

[Black and White]

Orlando gonna have massive cap room

Hopefully they can make some noise in free agency

A lot of contenders have had interest in frye, he's not rounded but he's one of the better stretch fours in the league when used in that role. Orlando had him doing too much, off the bench as a kick out shooter he's great at spreading the floor.

If a stretch 4 is what teams are looking for, why not turn to Phx and trade for Teletovic? Great 3 point shooter, great teammate, and he legitimately intimidates Lebron. Oh, and in the case it doesn't work out, he expires in the summer. Can it get any better?

Because he isn't Indiana Lance. Besides, why tf would you want him taking minutes from Mario/Fournier/Oladipo?

The magic got the better part of that deal. Not sure what you will do with Stephenson. If has his head on straight he's good. C.J. Wilcox never played because Doc doesn't play rookies, etc. But he can shoot. Frye was a waste of space on a team like the Magic. As a role player on a contender he's not a bad pick up.

I dunno why anyone would say that is Stephenson had his head on straight that he'd be good. He had on decent year in Indiana and that's about it. I think he's proven that year was a fluke. I don't think he'll be getting his "head on straight" anytime soon.

If people still think Lance is good then they're out of touch with his past year and a half with Charlotte and Los Angeles.

Frye isn't on a great contract, but he plays his role well. He's shooting 40% from 3 and gives the Clippers a true stretch PF to play along side.

Doc finally made a good trade for his team and brought in someone who can fit right in.

Kind of weird thinking that Tobias Harris and Channing Frye are both cousins and are on the verge of getting traded from the same team in the matter of a day.

Well Frye is going to LA while Harris is going to Detroit, I have a feeling one of them is pretty happy about it.

[Town's Town]

With Frye on the team, it means that Griffin is gone

anyone can tell me why lance sucks and no one wants him?

The only real noise Orlando makes in free agency is allowing their best free agents to go to the Lakers.

Pretty much. The risk is not worth the reward.
