    The Honrnets sign Matt Freije and realesed Tim Pickett. I think it is a great signing with Mash always getting hurt he should get some playing time plus he is a great scorer.

    Matt Freije is a great shooter, and is a very good rebounder. He will be a good edition to the struggling Hornets. This is a nice pickup IMO.

    Freije just needed a chance, and he wasn't going to get it in Miami. I think he could be a good player off the bench, especially being a shooter like he is.

    I hardly think Frejie would make an impact, although the Hornets are already very weak at the small forward spot. He was a second-round pick, and a rookie, which might not work to his favor in Byron Scott's system.

    Frejie could really play ball when he was at Vandy, but I don't see him making a big impact on the NBA. He just doesn't fit in on this Hornets team.

    Well, in 3 minutes of play, he hit 3-4 FGs (3-4 threes), scoring 9 points.

    I'm assuming it was at the end of the game, to try and cut the lead...

    frankie, 3 threes in nine seconds is pretty much impossible are you sure?
