Rumor Channing Frye return?

[BlazerCaravan]

Per 36 numbers:

Frye: 11pts, 6.8 rebs, 2.2 asts, 44% FG, 40% 3pt
ML : 13.8pts, 7.7 rebs, 2.5 asts, 45% FG, 35% 3pt

ORtg / DRtg:

Frye: 111 / 105
ML: 106/ 109

Better defense, better spot shooting. Frye is having a good old man season.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

If we wanted that we should have jumped on the suns offering markieff morris for a swift kick in the nuts while horny was still coach

 

[handiman]

Frye is owed 7.5 mil next season and his contract expires.

At age 32, I don't have much interest in him, and he's not really better than Leonard this year.

Just a thought... At $7.5M for a couple years, that may be better value than whatever contract Leonard ends up with next year. That might just be the new way of finding deals with the upcoming TV package: grab the guys who were slightly overpaid the last time around and have a couple years left on their contracts, making them MLE or lower types with the new salary cap.

Frye's a cultural fit too though.

Frye's salary is less than Leonard's cap hold too, right? Isn't his cap hold like $9 mil?

 

[Natebishop3]

Can't the broadcast team absorb his contract into their salary cap? He would be a massive updgrade over Harvey, and he could eventually replace Rice.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Frye...

Meh.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Frye...

Meh.

You prefer it raw, dog.

[JfizzleBlazer]

Yeah if we have our sights set on channing Frye this offseason as use with our cap space, I'm going to hurl

I thought of that. But it's not a couple years. Its this remaining season and next season. Then July of 2017, you're gonna be left with a declining Frye at age 34 out of a contract. Instead of a possibly overpaid, improving Leonard at age 25.

Easy decision tbh.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Leonard can go. Please.

I hope he puts up 25/15 on March 23rd in ya FACE !!!!

There's a lot of shitty GM's in the league, including the one who traded Harkless for a 2nd round pick.

Harkless hasnt done anything for us though and has been moved to the end of the bench basically. There is no value in Harkless for us currently, so maybe they saw the same?

Then someone else can pay high dollar for him.

Meh both of these stats are so team driven and who is around these guys, and who they face. Plus Leonard's early season slump killed him on O.

Link? Hes a free agent in 2018. He signed a four year deal July 2014

was just going by this: http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/f/fryech01.html

But do they only show 2 yrs at a time? Does mention the 4yr deal but not when that kicked in. I might be wrong then.

 

[riverman]

34 is a bit out of our curve....on second thought, I don't think I'd give up youth for 34 year old Frye..initially made me happy but that's more because I just like the guy.

Friendly wager? Does Meyers get shipped out, or resign with the Blazers? Shipped out can either be a trade or just signing with another team and we don't match.

I think he stays. I think his rare skill set is more valuable than ever in todays game ( wish he would be more consistent), he is young and still on the upside and I don't think the Blazers want another Will Barton scenario. What would you like to wager?

 

[Natebishop3]

I like that you wasted the 10 or so minutes that it took for you to make this.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I like how according to Hollinger this trade makes us worse.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Thats the best thing Ive ever seen. LMA would make us a worse team than if we resign Leonard!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHA

 

[SlyPokerDog]

2 mins at most, I'm not special needs like you are.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Aldridge can go eat a bag of dicks.

 

[Denny Crane]

Why? Leonard is younger and better than Frye.

Not quite. Leonard is younger.

 

[riverman]

I didn't realize Frye is older than Kaman

 

[SlyPokerDog]

League sources confirm the Milwaukee Bucks have made Greg Monroe and Michael Carter-Williams available in a trade as @GeryWoelfel reported.

 

[riverman]

Let the games begin! We're going to be in every rumor for 2 weeks...get ready!

 

[Pinwheel1]

How does the minimum salary cap effect how much cap space we have available. In other words is the amount we have available calculated from the league minimum? Which we are below? So maybe adding Frye does not effect our cap space since we are so far under? Would Frye 's salary make us go over that minimum? What is the minimum number?

 

[Denny Crane]

I'd rather have Dwight Howard.
