NJ.com Speaking of Frank, the coach took a face-first tumble while the media was interviewing Carter. Frank was working with end-of-the-bench guys Hassell, Maurice Ager, Chris Douglas-Roberts, and Sean Williams when he apparently tripped during a drill and fell flat on his face (I didn't see it happen because Vince was occupying my attention and blocking my view, but we all heard the players howling as it happened).
To his credit, Frank didn't end the drill - he kept working on the sets he was working on for another 10 or so minutes before wrapping up.
"I think you have to add levity,'' Frank said when asked what happened. "No, I just ... tripped. There ain't no excuse; sometimes you just (mess) up.''
Someone suggested he was fortunate there was no videotape of the incident. Frank thought there would be, because the Nets tape their practices. But he was told the camera had been turned off since practice was over at that point.
"They didn't get it?'' he said. "Oh, that's great. Thank God.''
I wish they got that on tape.I would pay money to see that on Youtube even tho its free.
