I really think Frank is just a slow developer. It took him a long time to hit college 3s and now it's taking him a long time to adjust to the nba 3. I still think he becomes a knockdown shooter one day.

I'm looking for a big step up this year. He's already got enough value in other areas that if he becomes a plus shooter he's a heck of a player potentially.

Perhaps it would be better for us if he waited one more season to break out so we can negotiate a better extension with him.

Myles Turner looks like a potential defensive beast so yeah we probably missed the boat there, but I don't think (m)any people saw that coming. I wouldn't trade Frank for Booker, I don't think Booker will be good honestly. He's the type of guy you get stuck paying big dollars for mediocre production. No value there.

Apparently Frank came into the year last season pretty banged up from the surgery he had late last summer -

Good to see that he is in great shape this time around. I think he will be a big surprise as a rising force in 17-18.

Is anyone else getting super nervous about Frank? He kept throwing his arms up in the air all night like he's completely lost his confidence and just doesn't know what to do anymore...

I don't know that I've ever seen a player who the advanced metrics like so much more than my eye test does... He really needs to step it up this year.

If he has confidence issues 2 or 3 games into the preseason hes screwed.

I think he worked very hard this offseason (remember this is a huge year for him financially) and he's realizing it's not translating to the games and he's getting frustrated really quickly. He was throwing his arms up after missed free throws... missed jumpers... just generally looked terrible and extremely upset with himself

Guys? Any ideas? What is happening here?

I think position matters. Frank played his best when he was playing C but then he was a defensive liability against bigs. I am trying to figure out if he can make it work at the stretch 4 and play alongside Dwight or Cody. I think him and Marvin in the game at once with Dwight or Cody on the floor is a disaster though. Gives us great size but he seems out of position. He just needs to play clean and confident. Don’t force anything and play smart. He’s a skilled player offensively but will be off if he’s playing out of position.

HoopsMalone · Post #1917 » by **HoopsMalone** » Thu Oct 12, 2017 2:22 am

Marvin/Frank should never be on the court together at the forward spots. That's an outright disaster. Frank/Cody had amazing stats last year when playing together.

I cut Frank today in my dynasty fantasy league. Had him since I drafted him in rookie draft. I can't waste a roster spot any longer.

Frank showed some glimpses last season, I hoped he would come back strong this year after a good offseason to push for a starting role.

Now I want to trade him.

Maybe swap him for Dougy McBuckets to be a stretch 4. You know Dougy will launch it, we also might be able to squeeze something more out of Knicks.

I'd rather have Frank than Doug. At least Frank is tall. :noway:
