Channing Frye

[RedBlackAttack]

I love this guy. Not just his insane shooting, but Channing has really been using his length defensively. He is the perfect fit on this team. It's like they cooked him up in the lab.

 

[Just Checkin]

When he posted up Zeller, Zeller went "Nope" as Frye tossed up a floater and Frye replied "Yup" as it went in.

Aside from his talent, a really underrated aspect of GMing is personality meshing. Guy is a character and I love it. Never saw this much personality and swagger when he was a Knick.

Yeah Channing is a shooter but he has a bit of an edge to him which is nice. What a huge pickup he has proven to be, basically carrying our bench lately.

 

[InBoobieWeTrust]

This is a case where advanced stats came through.

I'm really glad we got Channing over Ryan Anderson. Anderson got 4y80M, we probably wouldnt have been able to keep him and I don't think he would have been any better than Channing has been.

The other underrated thing is how good of a locker room guy Channing is. Even coming in as an outsider , he really was a big part of this team coming together as a unit and liking each other last year.

With Frye and LeBron in the game, the Cavs' ORTG is 134.8 and their DRTG is 98.6. NET +36.2 per 100 possessions.

With Frye in the game and opening up the spacing, LeBron is a averaging 1.47 points per shot and has a true shooting of 73%. With Frye out and TT in, LeBron's TS falls to 53% and his PPS to 1.07.

Watching them on court, LeBron plays completely differently on offense with Frye in, part of that has to do with the fact that usually Love and Kylie are off court and LBj has to score more, but without the middle clogged, James attacks the basket much more often.

Your stat research is amazing, so it's not a mark against you (and a good reason for no dislike button), but TT's role on the team is different. We had a different look than normal because of Love's outburst during the first quarter, but TT was the main reason we were still in the game in the abysmal 3rd quarter.

On that note, Frye has been outstanding. And this guy had a tragedy happen to him earlier, and still decides to go to work. Big Z had a similar problem in 2007 (his wife's miscarriage in the middle of the season), yet managed to get himself through it on the way to the Finals that year.

Until our holes on the depth chart are filled in, Frye plays a niche. And at such a high level. We need him at the moment.

.488 on six attempts a game, from the bench.

If he plays 70 games, he's currently on pace to hit 210 threes on the season off of the bench. I don't think he'll quite get to that number, but here are the most threes in a season for s player off the bench:

1. JCrawford, 163
2. KMart, 158
2. JR, 158
3. JR, 157
4. JR, 155

He's averaging about 18 minutes per game. Only three players have ever made 100+ threes playing such few minutes:

1. Eddie House, 123 in 17.5 min/g
2. Steve Novak, 119 in 16.4 min/g
3. Sasha Vujacic, 118 in 17.8 min/g

He could shatter these numbers.

Is that sixth man of the year worthy?

 

[K1rieIrving>AllOtherPG's]

Lue mentioned he has some secret Lineup involving Channing that he did not share with the media, any speculation on what that line up can be?

I was thinking Channing+Love, can't really rim protector when you can't help off those guys or they'll get open 3's all day.

BUILD A FUCKING STATUE

 

[LeShaq]

With him on the court with the closing group, how do you guard us?

Love this guy.

 

[TyGuy]

I was so happy when we got him because a big with his talents is ultra rare. Sorry porzingus, frye is the real unicorn.

He is going to be huge for us the entire regular season.

My greatest photoshop work of all time, I think its time to resurrect it
