THJ with the irrational confidence paying dividends.

Nah he was a lot better against Clevland.

He has been playing well.

Definitely a more well rounded player

Definitely. The boneheaded 3 aside I love how he has been getting others involved. His defense has been more than good aswell.
Hardaway is turning into a new John Starks. Unfazed confidence that can make or break a team, but he always seems to come up big when it matters and he's not afraid of the moment. He is earning his money.

True...His play has kept MS away...

Finishes at the basket much better than the first time he was here...better ball handler in terms of getting free for the drive.
Gut check win against a team that was defensively great. I wonder when the superstar on our side is going to make offensive adjustments
What's up with Jeff's cough? Was he a coal miner?
I'm still mad at Jeff. He played Jack 28 Minutes and Frank 20!!! Jack a -4 and Frank a +9! This is getting silly IMO. When Jeff finally played Frank and KP the team got rolling. Just gotta make sure to have them playing together more minutes of every game.

Celtics mantra: it’s not who starts but who finishes
Frank had a rough start. Jack played well. Frank finished very well

MEH! Jeff most definitely could've brought Frank in sooner and Jack was a -4 vs Frank's +9. IMO there's just no excuse for not making sure Frankk and KP are on the floor at the same time for as many minutes as you can. They're a top 2 man tandem for this team.
Oh and he played CLee 39 minutes and he ended the game with a gimpy hammy!
Frank is closing out the 4th quarter since we have been winning games. He needs to stop picking up his dribble, and there are a couple of decisions that he needs to be smarter on (tonight after he got that steal he needed to run clock or let them foul him), but this guy keeps learning more and more and creates a ton of turnovers.

Frank got into foul trouble immediately.

Would not mind him getting a game or two in with the GL team where he is told to take about 20 shots. I've seen him in his French games, and he has rarely been as hesitant to shoot his J. His offensive issues are mostly in his head.
Guys remember Mo Cheeks, of course...rarely averaged more than 10 shots/game. Had his moments as a scorer, but never was a dominant scorer...Frank is reminding me of him in some ways. Not a bad player to be compared to, but I'd like to see Frank look to score more often and be a bit more selfish.

Hey man, I love her in yellow. I mean I’d dip her in honey and see what happens next. Amiright?

I remember writing a post about him before the draft thinking maybe we can move back and acquire another pick and target him.
Mitchell was definitely in the mix and along with monk should also be a long term comparison for Frank. The knocks on mitchell were that his shot wasn't consistent and he might be caught in between PG and SG with his height and skills. In college, his D and his athleticism was his calling card. Actually tonight his offense looked a little better than his D, but you did see some wildness there too that he has to reign in.
There was some talk about his intangibles leading up to the draft but I think he's shown early on that this may have been under-estimated. He's got a winning attitude and his game just has to catch up.
All that said, Frank has been better than advertised too and he's got to work on his confidence and his penetration. He does not seem like a natural scorer, yet...well he's 19, what the hell. But he's getting better and the fact that you never see him sitting in the 4th quarter tells you what the coach thinks of him.
