ok guys forgive my total.ignorance but........ every one is talking about how high Frank's iq is because he passed the ball to lance with like a second in the shot clock and like 3 seconds left on the game . why was this a smart move?

Not sure. Watching Wolves/Thunder and the series since the game ended. Jeff always talks about Frank's iq. Tonight during the broadcast they talked about how Frank's teammates talked about his iq. Maybe that is where the chatter is from. Really nice to see Frank on the court tonight.

Wasn't paying attention at the time...but did Lance do it so Frank wouldn't get a turnover?
Neither here nor there...not even thinking about it, to be honest.

THJr told him to hold ball and run clock out. Dude got just a bit nervous and passed. Just a nervous rookie thing.

Frank's effect he had on our defense was astounding. He guarded and contested well vs every position. Excellent help defense. He honestly looked better than any rookie I've seen play overall. He showed signs of greatness people. I couldn't be more thrilled with what we saw. Of course he's learning and very young but there is so much potential. Thanks Phil.
Kanter is a beast. He can take a quick pull on some hard coaching (go JH) and come back beasting harder.
KP of course looks better and better.
Jack was just what we need right now.
I hope THJ can keep up his somewhat progress.

Have you watched any other NBA games this year? Simmons in Philly, Tatum in Boston. Come on with being such a homer. Frank showed some nice signs but better than ANY rookie this year? Are you related to Tommy Heinsohn by any chance?

Nice to get a win under the belt - LOVED that we smacked the Nets around! I knew KP would bounce back & he looks awesome. I still hate that Hardaway keeps getting major minutes even though his shot is still ice cold. But nice to see some solid D - hope they can keep it going with some consistency. Thrilled for the Rook - nice debut, kid!

Big red,give him time. He's 19 he's smart. He's going to learn to use angles and gaps. He has solid basketball iq and he played good d. Whatever way we want to look at it these young players will take 2-5 years to fully develop. I think he was a solid. Solid B tonight. It will be fun to watch him grow

Man Frankie is a fresh cup of water! Hands down one of the best defensive showings of any rookie this year. He has the real gifts of a pure pg, his ability to make his teammates better on both ends is special... I think sky is the limit for him, when was the last time we saw defense like that from our PG, I cant even remember!

Not counting Simmons! Hahaha, no I'm not, and I don't get the reference but it still cracked me up. Tatum has looked good, just a good scoring option like I thought he'd be. Not really anything too special IMO. The way Frank was so involved defensively and got our whole team turned up was really something special. What really amazed me was the little things that most people wouldn't notice. I look forward to seeing how he progresses playing with the starters and being more comfortable offensively. I'm telling you, we have something special. Everything we hoped for and more.

I can't hardly remember any point guard, rookie or otherwise, have that kind of effect on a game defensively.

LOVED seeing Carmelo try to make the big game tying shot in the final seconds and he CLUNKED it - Thunder lost. I can't recall how many damn times he missed the big shot for us as a Knick.

It was a smart and cool gesture by Lance because the turnover from the shot clock expiring didnt end up on Frank's stat sheet. So instead of finishing the game with 4 TOs, he only finished with 3 thanks to Lance.

Hardaway ain't worth 71 mill with 71 mill in his pocket.
