Who would you rather have on your team?I would have to say Frye can shoot a good jumper above the key. He blocks excellent. Only thing he needs to imrpove on is his rebounding. If he reaches his full potential he could be a 20/10 guy.

If he reaches his full potential he could be a 20/10 guy.</div> Considering Bogut and Villanueva are both better than Channing Frye...i'm not suprised a Knicks fan would pick Frye. Teams figured out Frye as the season went on and he was ineffective, it was one of the reasons why Brown cut his minutes. I just think Bogut is a better post player, he's more physical and tough...better footwork and a better passer. Villanueva has the most pure talent out of all of them and at 6'11" 245 pounds can shoot it, pass it, score in the post and handle the ball... 1. Andrew Bogut 2. Charlie Villanueva 3. Channing Frye
hmm.. hard to tell between bogut and CV. since they'll be on the same team, it'll be hard to tell who will shine. CV is a much more talented scorer, but Bogut is more versatile offensively, and a much better defender. still not sure on this one.
It is for sure between Bogut and Villanueva. I think that Charlie's versatitlity is a reason that he will have such a successful NBA career. In his rookie season, he was able to score from the outside just as much as he was from the inside and for a 6 11 player, that is very impressive. Overall though, I would take Bogut. Good centers are hard to find in this league. And I think that overtime, he is going to develope more and more and become a great NBA player. His footwork is great, he is an excellent passer for a big man, and he can also play some defense. I would take Bogut, and then Charlie, and last Channing. Frye is too soft and he relies on the mid range way too often.
Frye will be a much better player in the future then them..Frye is the new shooter fo the knicks..They lost kurt thomas and they got someone that shoots as well and is getting more agressive..Villuaneva is gonna be animal in the future.Dont know about bogut..

Frye is the new shooter for the Knicks? Sorry but most people don't like 6'10" jumpshooting PF's.

You have Charlie Villanueva dont you? But yeah, Channing Frye is not the Knicks outside shooter. He is just a big man that has fallen in love with the mid range.
I would have Bogut just based on the talent he has playing Center. He's a better defender, better post moves and he can score if he gets the touches. Charlie is much more talented when it comes to shooting and scoring. He can hit that three and midrange. He can put some post up moves on you also. Frye I think is too soft. He needs to bulk up. He likes to relies on his midrange a lot as Ballerman said.
This is definetley a tough comparison but Ill go with Charlie V on this one. Charlie finished second in rookie of the year voting and put up a monsterous 48 points last season. When he originally got drafted by the Raptors many people bashed Toronto management for picking Villanueva so early but he's really shined since his debut in the league. I guess that made him more willing to work harder in the offseason and prove everybody wrong and he'll become the best player out of the three and Channing Frye will also be a stud in the league but he needs to put some muscle on before he can compete against the top centers in the league.
Bogut is first. He is the most fundamentally sound player of the three. He plays with a chip on his shoulder, and plays hard every night, and believe me, I have seen him do it. He was a bi*ch to the Pistons last year on the inside, and I see him becoming the best of the three. Next in line is Charlie V. He is an amazing player considering his build and the way he plays. His shooting at his position will make him a force in the league for years to come.Last is Frye. He is a decent shooting big man, but he is nothing special. I think he will become a solid role player in the NBA, but nothing more.
CV3 anytime, he has more potential than Bogut, he is limited to his post play. Cv3 can do anything, except for the PG,he played all other positions with the raptorsand im not only saying this cuz imma raps fan
I would go, Bogut, CV and Frye in that order. Bogut is alot better of a defender then CV is, and he will be the better post player. CV may score more because of his shot, but I would still rank Bogut over him because he is a horrible defender.I dont think Frye will be anything special to be honest.

He has a pretty dang good mid range jumper and that will come in handy for him later on in his career. He has long arms which will help him with his shot blocking as well. You have to remember that his playing time was VERY inconsistent this year. It doesnt help when your coach will play you 30 minutes one game and then 8 the next. This year, with more sufficent playing time, he could get around 15 and 6 or 7 IMO.
