I watched every Hornets game since Kemba was drafted. J.Taylor(after injury), Maxiell, G.Neal, Lance, this year Ramon, Frank.... trash. Big Al was great in second half 2013/14 season. McBob, Biyombo, Kemba... great guys.

All I'm saying is you're not a regular poster here. Please either find other topics to discuss as well or refrain from posting.

I'd rather have Hezonja fwiw. I'm damn close to giving up on Frank. If that jumper isn't fixed next season, I'm done.

So far the only things I have seen you post have been criticisms of Frank. If that is all you are here to do, then please refrain from posting. We had the exact same policy last season (I guess technically the opposite problem) when posters that were only interested in talking about JLin started posting. If you are only going to engage in conversation about one player, or you are going to turn every GT into a referendum on one player, then that is not going to be tolerated.

I know Frank only made one 3 pt against PHI but it was a beaut from the short corner. I wish Cliff would design stuff to get Frank in the corner more. It's still a straight line but shorter than the top of the 3 pt arc, which seems to be his favorite spot to miss from

i know this is the frank thread but i couldnt find the MKG one. would you trade MKG for picks? Shooting at an awful percentage injury prone but has an ELITE defense with him being only 23 being a huge upside for development. But the one thing i cant see him fixing is that shot..and unfortunatly with how the league is going and charlotte aswell it's a 3pt heavy league..unless your name is demar derozan guy dont give a **** about no 3pters.

There is a stickied thread "The Fake Trade Thread" intended for this type of discussion.

I don't expect him to be traded unless it's a clear win that we can't pass up. But I'm on the verge of giving up and just selling him on whatever potential he has left.

Not a fan of Frank at all, but I think it would be a mistake to give up on him so soon. Not like he has solid/good value anyway. May as well just ride it out and see what happens.

I think so. I like listening to their podcasts. They seem to always touch all of the subjects we discuss here on this board. I wonder if one if not some of our regular posters are secretly them.

Last year Frank's effort on D gave me some hope for him on that end. This year he's had a few games where his offense has really looked good.

I'm just waiting to see if he can put it all together or not. We should know better mid-way through next year IMHO.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Let's get this straight. I like Frank. I advocated drafting him and with that said I also wanted us to draft Kelly Olynyk in the other draft. I think he's a skilled big that can contribute to a winning team.

The more Frank stank it up my problem with Frank is probably more Clifford than actually Frank the player. Clifford stubbornly force Frank on me as a fan with consistent minutes up to 20+ every night no matter how bad he's playing and it's quite aggravating.
