If your boxscore reading, it looks bad. If you saw his penetrations were amped up and he had a few great passes because of it. Players that are trying to play out of a comfort zone sometimes do this. Its called uneven progress. Frank played with a different level of aggression last night. You don't start dunking on 7footers over night. I love that he tried it. He is taking it to the rim over those last 5 games.
Does this mean we don't try to improve? Of course not. Just not after a bad shooting night.
0-8, but his *missed* dunk spurred the team on? My, how far low the bar has fallen. Do you realize how desperate that sounds? Did we give Charles Smith credit for "trying" when he missed 4 layups against the Bulls?
He was FUCKING FOULED!
I was at that game

Team built a lead. Frank and Mitch were positive 5. Know who else was positive? Nobody. He goes o-8 and The second unit did real well in the second period. Dotson got hot. Few games ago he was anyting but. How it goes. Did you see the dunk attempt? It was in traffic and would have posterized Dwight Howard. Our little Passive Frenchie is growing up. Was it a Charles smith moment? Hardly.
Frank played 12 minutes. He is wearing arm sleaves now? Maybe he has an injury or the groin again? He was plus 5 in his brief time. Defense matters. Whose name calling BTW? "Rainman" and "Drunk Uncle" are thread descriptors.
Frank went after KP. Clearly a foul right there. Nobody is crowning him a star but how do you not root for this 21 year old.
Thread descriptors? WTF does that mean? You call knicks1825 Rainman in every thread. It's implying he is autistic. I have no idea if he is or is not autistic, but I guarantee that at least some users/readers of this site are autistic. What's your point? Give it a rest already.

I'm kind of in Panos's camp re giving it a rest on Rainman. Besides I think rainman had aspergers and was really, really smart so it's a misplaced insult to boot
That said, i understand Nalod's frustration with knicks1248 incessant negativity
Nalod@ 1/24/2020 11:52 AM
who didn’t love Rainman? His redundant automatic responses were cute. I don’t now if Knicks 1248 is autistic or not. But his redundant crack head lazy make shyt up SOMETIME responses are worthy. Note when he don’t, I don’t call the posts with that kind of response.

As for Drunk Uncle,, those too are responses. There are lots of things I dont't agree with and don't respond to. Well thought opinions with facts are interesting regardless of agreement or not. If you rant the obvious, offer no insight, suggest incomplete thoughtless fictional moves, and don't do any leg work then "Drunk uncle" applies. Im sorry, do we have a support group in sympathy of "drunk uncles" here also?

Your war with him really makes you seem like a jackass. He doesn't always have the most cogent ideas but I've not seen him treat you the way you treat him.
93BUICK@ 1/24/2020 10:19 PM
I'm still 100% pro Frank.

Sometimes he makes me fell like a jack ass. He disrespects with his post content. Making shyt up like he in the locker room. Phuch that noise.

Frank got to go he is not improving at all and shooting percentage is dropping by day.

and when he is not bricking his jumper he is trying to dunk on the leagues 7 foot monsters! The comments on the tweet are consistent with the love/hate on our forum.
jrodmc@ 1/27/2020 8:51 AM
The franchise is at such a low ebb that Frank is now the lightning rod for the site. One good thing, if he does get traded, traffic on this site will probably not go down, as there will be just as many "Hey Frank Haters - Look at all these Frankie shots that almost went in" threads as there are Frank threads now...
Think I'd rather debate whether MitchRob dunking 6 times and fouling out can be considered a 'good game'.
Missed dunks.... it's come to this. LMAO
[Insert clip of Louie Orr missing the dunk off the front of the rim while Hubie sits and shakes his head]
houston20@ 1/27/2020 10:50 AM
I got give frank credit play well last night on a difficult day for nba.
NYKBocker@ 2/3/2020 9:27 AM
How can you not like this guy?
Chandler@ 2/3/2020 9:41 AM
If we drafted Dray Green, or Marcus Smart, how would we treat them??
makes perfect sense to be frustrated with his offensive development
Makes no sense to hate him or not see that he can contribute to winning basketball

Youngest knick to register a double-double. Progress is not always linear. His game thru the season has improved. This was what we had hoped to see last season.
