Frank was supposed to start from jump.

A rookie PG was supposed to start from the jump? Rarely. And I doubt Frank was. Hence the Knicks looking all over for vet PG help.

I think the safe assumption was if Frank showed he was ready, he'd get into the starting lineup mid year. With Jeff, who knows, but it's early.

Dotson the new Demitris Nichols?

I'll tell you an overrated Knick, not even a player. Clarence I got one draft pick right Gaines.

I agree...Jack is playing like he has an expiration date.

Jack is 34 coming off ACL surgery and we're asking him to lead our uptempo offense and chase around some of the fastest players in the league on defense? Janis needs to make a few phone calls and fix this.

Would you blame if KP ask for a trade couple of years later because his peers will have great talet around them and he has not? This whole teaming up with allstars trend started because of bad managements.

Door is closing for bringing another top rookie to play with KP. We can't tank when he is 25. We will have to chase stars all over again for KP to stay.

Not just that but our young players are rusty because time/rotation managment of our dumbass coach.

So i welcome tanking. Today was a good day. Now lets get these loses with our young players.

This +1000 I’m baffled that so many want to compete for a playoff spot have we not learned our lesson it will be hard to tank because obviously there are other teams that are straight trash but I still rather pursue the 5th pick than the 16th pick and make the playoffs

I'm patient with Frank. You have to be. I know he has a jumper and he already has defense. Learn the NBA, get stronger, and he will be aight.

There's no way to tank without purposely getting rid of talent on this team. And I don't mean just the older players. Frank/Tim/Doug/KP/Kanter would not be a tanking team, they might be better. Only injury will realistically kill the season.

I see the same group of people are getting emotional and defensive. You would think they would stop given that their source of contempt is no longer with this team.

Frenchie will have his good days and bad days like all rookies.

I understand frank is young and has potential so I’m not gonna complain when he plays bad until his 3rd year but some of you guys gotta stop acting like his potential will automatically mean he will become a star like wait and see I swear :noway:

Why are we so concerned that a 19 year old rookie PG is having some trouble with fouls?

Didn't KP have the same problem for 2 years?

That’s what the FO was supposed to do.
Why do you think I wasn’t fully happy coming into the season? It had nothing to do with Melo being traded. It was the lack of moves to go along with moving him and proceeding to turn this roster over with young players and flyers.

We made one move and behaved like that was it.

No!

We have way too many vets on this team. IMO this isn’t a rebuild. This is more of the same bull.
