Channing Frye is on the move. The serviceable, versatile big man is headed from Orlando to Cleveland. After getting handled by the Warriors several weeks back, Cleveland realizes that they can’t hang with the eventual Western Conference champs.

But on the surface, this is a great move for Cleveland and allows them to spread the floor even more.
