If a ball is blocked and a foul is called on someone else/Frye prevents a 3 pt play. Right?

I've always liked it when Frye does that.  NO FREEBIES BABY.

Tssbro is actually Channing Frye.

He is funny and smart and has an actual personality.  I hope he is a Blazer for his career for these reasons.

I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt on the court because of his time with the Knicks killing him and making him bigger than he wanted to be, and because we've been trying to make him more of a banger than he will ever be.  As long as we don't expect Channing to be anything he ain't meant to be, we should be happy with what he gives us.

Since he's smart, I think he'll develop into a wily veteran who gets things done.  I dunno if he'll be happy on the Blazers like he says he will, because he'll always play behind Oden and LMA, but I'm happy to have him here.  

Monty is wrong if he thinks knocking the dead ball shots out of the air doesn't do anything.  It definately affects a shooter trying to get a flow going, and annoys the other team.  That's why KG and Dirk do it all of the time.  If you're struggling with your shot, seeing it go in really helps.  Frye knocking the dead ball out of the air gets in their head, even if only a little bit.  And, like, every little bit helps or sumthin'.

And to answer Dheepan, what you are describing would not be a dead ball.  If a guy is fouled in the act of shooting and puts a shot up, that is a live ball and knocking it out of the air on the way down is goaltending.  What Frye does is knock shots out of the air during dead ball scenarios, like when someone is fouled off of the ball and the dribbler just throws up a practice shot before giving the ball to the refs.  It happens a dozen times a game.  Frye then goaltends the dead ball shot so it doesn't go in, disrupting the shooter (in theory).

I like this Frye, and I hope he stays happy with his role in Portland.  I like guys who are cool enough to like Portland.  It annoys me when some of our players can spend an entire career in Portland and think Portland is Tualitin.  That sucks.

Oden is moving to Portland proper now, too!  See, I like that Oden guy as well.  The rest of you will catch on later.

NOT IN MY HOUSE!!!
I love this play, I believe it shows a lot dedication and intelligence from the guy who does that, consistently, night in, night out...
When I used to play this used to enrage me, it sends you the message that there won't be a single easy shot, you're gonna have to fight with your life just to be able to put up a shot... it goes a long way showing your determination not to let down at any moment of the game...
I say you let the kid do what he does 'cause he does good...at least in that area of the game...

Because every team did it to us all year last season and we never did it once. Now it happens constantly.

Everytime an opponent misses a free throw, he walks into the lane, grabs the ball, bounces it a couple of times, and hands it to the ref.  I do not know if that is in the same philosophy, but it seems he does it deliberately.  

Shooting and hitting DOES help when you're rythm is off and not seeing that ball go in is anoying as heck.

I like Frye, and I hope he plays better next year.  I'd rather keep him than outlaw in all honesty, but he needs to get better and be more consistent.

Outlaw is awesome, but he's not steady.
