    I like the move. Varejao was worthless, and frye is a decent big man. Definite upgrade.

    He's actually an average defender. Better than James jones so that's always a plus lol

    It's an upgrade but its not a game changer by any means. Does Frye in the rotation allow us to beat GS? No.

    I do like the idea of a line up of kyrie, jr, lebron love and frye. Lots and lots of floor spacing. Will be interesting to see how it all plays out

    Congrats to him. One of his 50 trades in last 3 days happened...

    Love and Frye together could be lethal. Gives you two guys who can knock down open 3s on kick outs and gives lbj and kyrie a ton on space to work in iso

    Reading that the Cavs still have 2 roster spots open and a TPE. This likely isn't the only move.
  • Midstate01
    Looks like they used the Tpe for frye, and then...


    @WindhorstESPN: 2018 1st round pick Cavs are trading to Portland is top 10 protected for 2 years. Cavs also created new trade exception of $9.6M

    So now they have a new TPE that will last through next deadline which is huge.

    I think they still have another TPE.

    They have Miller and Harris. They have the 10.3 too if they didn't use it for Frye

    Dwight is a disaster. I wouldn't want him for a bag of peanuts.
  • sleeper
    Shump is the only piece I see that could still be moved and I haven't seen a lot of chatter for him recently.

    Nice hottaek. I'd take Dwight on this team, but not giving up LBJ/Love/KI/JR Smith/Delly/Shump to get him.

    He's a cancer at best. He would ruin any chance at chemistry in the locker room. Dwight hasn't made any team better since he left Orlando. Lakers were bad, Rockets are bad; somehow he's going to change and become a relevant player in Cleveland?

    Well, he wasn't healthy in LA, he was a beast in the playoffs, and is now the 4th/5th option on the rockets for some reason. The rockets fired their HC like 11 games into this season after going to the WCF (hardly a case study for a well run organization), so yeah I think Dwight is still a relevant player in the league. He's no longer at his MVP type level, but doesn't mean he's trash.

    Hate to see Andy go, his hustle created more second chances than any guy in history probably. Dumb move.
  • Crimson streak
    Andy was terrible this year. Barely even played. Saved the cavs 10 mill opened up a roster spot for possibly joe Johnson and created another TPE that doesn't expire till after next years trade deadline. Overall an excellent deal

    Yeah, he's not good now though.

    Sam also said in that podcast that the Cavs offered Love and Moz for Counsins and McLemore
