Part of it should be taken as a rip on the front office. That was a horrific trade, I wanted us to try to get some value for DSJ over the offseason to salvage something out of that trade.

Again, I ask.... how the f’ bad is Frank in practice?... or does Fiz just dislike him?

Seems like second one.

I mean, Frank can’t do any worse than Dennis right now.

I think its more directed at Fizdale

Yep. Gotta draw fouls or drive and kick out. He should be able to do that with his speed.

This. Hope the garden crowd doesn't turn this into a Fultz situation. That shouldn't happen to a 21 year old playing at home.

Happening already

Knick Fans do that? Nah

Guards not named Barrett as I write this...

1/10, 7 points, 7 turnovers, and 7 assists.

Yup.

Not sure. Frank has a Lin like hysteria about him despite not having much success as an nba player.

Headed for another loss. Headed for another top 5 pick. If this team is bottom 5 Fizdale should be fired.
meloshouldgo @ 10/26/2019 9:44 PM
Fuck DSJR. Fizdale is going to destroy Barrett as well. This morherfukker needs to go. There's no game plan, no offense and no defense.
And he plays favorites to death. How is this shithole an NBA head coach?

Yup.

Frank can do that too!

The lottery was already a given.

Hope we can get picks back in a firesale at some point before the deadline.

Down 14 and, again, on life support. If this ends as it predictably will, we've only got 62 losses to go. (Hate being so negative but this team is beyond lost and I don't see it changing with Fizdale at the helm.)

Smith will be fighting the fact he is associated with losing our Unicorn and how so many want Frank to succeed. At this point though you do have to wonder why Frank is not getting a little run.

Thats a bit overboard. Nobody is saying Frank is a future all star or even starter BUT he brings defense which we could really use on the perimeter. I feel bad for Smith because Fizdale created a terrible situation for both dennis and frank

But as an organization now and moving forward...how are we benefiting from guys like Portis, Morris, and Payton playing full starter minutes with guys like Knox not getting full-time run and Frank not getting anything?
