Channing Frye is on fire first half 7 of 8 from the field perfect from 3 point land 17 points but only 1 rebound. That has to improve. Still gotta love 17 points in one half. This guy is going to stretch the floor for us. We got our Tim thomas esque player back.

I like Amare's stat line so far. 7 boards is encouraging. He needs to average 10 a game at least.

I'm not that excited to see Frye camping outside the paint so much tbh. Sure he spreads the floor a lot and helps our team, Amare especially, when he hits those outside shots, but doing so means the rebounding duties fall squarely on a single rebounder, Amare. I'd like to see him inside a bit more to help with the rebounding.

phungk I'm right there with you. Speights, Deandre Jordan, Javale Mcgee. I'd take those three over him right now. Lopez might be a gigantic bust if he doesn't get meaner. If and Dragic have to get meaner. dragic especially he's too nice. He needs to get angry and play with a mean streak like ginobili attacking the basket and getting the and 1

if Lopez turns out to be what the Suns want from him which is an agile aggressive rebounding big man who plays good d guarding the pick and roll and guarding the post and picks up some easy buckets here and there he'll be the right pick we have offense we need that paint enforcer. But I just don't see him turing into that player so I feel the pick should've been speights I wanted him all along given the choices him or chalmers.
