<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'></p> <div class="bi">Shopping Frye?</div> <div> <span style="font-style: italic">Oct 19</span> - Is Portland trying to move Channing Frye? At the very least the Blazers tried moving him to Chicago for Tyrus Thomas.</p> </p> Let me rephrase that: The Bulls are so enthusiastic about Thomas I'm not sure the Blazers ever got to make a legit offer. But I do hear Frye is being shopped. Portland lobbied the Knicks hard for David Lee as partial payment in the Zach Randolph trade and it was either accept Frye or get stuck with Randolph's $61M, four-year tab. -- <font color="#000000">New York Post</font></p></div></div>
From everything I hear, the Blazers love Frye and he will play a major role for us this year. Of course you listen to offers for every player, but I can't see us actively shopping him, even as incentive for another team to take a player we don't want.
