You guys really think Frazier is going to play if there aren't injuries?
If Reke is healthy, I don't see how Frazier sees the court.
Even if Reke is gone, you want to move Jrue to SG and play Frazier and take minutes from Moore/Hield/Galloway?
Frazier is an above average D-League player that can only guard the PG position, and he does that below average. I thought he did well last year, but we sucked, and had no depth. We seem to have a lot of depth at the PG/SG postion with Jrue/Galloway/Moore/Hield/QPon. Those guys aren't fringe D-League players like Frazier, and i don't see Frazier taking minutes from them unless there are injuries.

The general consensus amongst the bloggers/journalists with sources is that his knee is pretty bad, he won't be playing for a while, and if he does play once he gets healthy it likely will be as a showcase for trading him.

Unless we unleash a top 5ish defense the trade off to the offense might not be worth it. Maybe in a different role with more responsibility initiating the offense they'll do better but here are career Per 36 Assist numbers:

Frazier 8.2
Galloway 3.7
Moore 3.3


You don't think there will be a problem going from Jrue to a combo guard? We've had enough bad backup guards over the years to see what happens to the offense when you put it in the hands of people that aren't proficient at running an offense.

career Per 36 Assist numbers:

Jimmer Freddette 3.7
Austin Rivers 3.4

I don't see why more people don't see it. Maybe they're more famililar with Moore and Galloway than I am and think either can be more of a facilitator than they've been in the past, but that defense better be nasty if the offense is going to be ugly and ineffective.
