    Yeah, more points, more rebounds, more blocks, higher 2pt percentage, higher 3pt percentage, higher PER, everything. Hawes is definitely better than Channing Frye.

    Another woj tweet: There's serious market for Hawes' ability to shoot and stretch floor, beginning with Cavs who are determined to keep him. Perfect for Blatt.

    We need to sell him on living out in Scappoose or Estacada or something. I know he's a super conservative and all.

    Hawes is angling for the $$$ and Cleveland is willing to play it looks like.

    One racked up stats on a gimmick offense in Philly. The other was a key piece to a 50 win team.

    I prefer Hawes as well going forward but Frye was a more effective player last season in my opinion.

    Ptd is not exactly the best place for young white right wing males. :)

    I was trying to copy the Greg Oden quote but I think I slaughter the imitation of it . . .

    Hawes is a legitimate 7'1" that can shoot with either hand. Can shoot facing the basket or back to the basket.
    He has flaws or he would want more cash

    Hawes would be a perfect addition to this ball club. He is much better than Frye. I hope we get him.

    It's better we add pieces to our already existing starting 5, than use a starter to get another player.

    So you agree and disagree with me? Cool. Glad we settled that. I'll concede that Channing is a much better kickball player than Spencer.

    Ariza is supposedly getting 8-10 million offers.

    That was the rumor. Cleveland was thinking of offering 8-10 a year.
