He is also a better FT shooter which usually translates to better outside shot (usually).
The % obviously are a small sample size with how little frank has played but it pretty obvious (to me) who I project the better shooter. If frank gets DSJ type minutes I would think he percentages would more reflect what I believe he can play at.
Obviously DsJ provides things that frank can’t ass well. But as a pure spot up shooter I stand by my statement.
Yea well we'll see what happens. I''m not saying he can't be a good shooter, but right now the fact is that he's the worst PG shooter on the team.
There are obviously some projecting involved in my analysis. But I don’t believe you actually think he has the worst outside shot out of the PG’s.
Frank shot 28% from 3.
DSJ shot 32%. He even shot 34% with Dallas before he got piled up with injuries in NY.
Payton shot 31%.
Numbers don't lie bro. All of them aren't good shooters but Frank is the worst. Don't care how good his form is if he can't hit sh*t when it's game time.

It’s like when lil bitches make subliminal records, if it ain’t directed directly at me, I don’t respect it

Re: Knicks camp/preseason thread - Link in OP
Like I said before, I really believe we will have a playoff team this year. We are so deep, guys will stay fresh and I expect us to out hustle, out match and out run teams.
We are so deep, I dont see how guys like Bullock, Ellington, Dotson, Iggy etc.. even play who are good shooters from distance. I think a trade is going to be made.
Love the Idea of Randle playing some point Center/forward. Where he actually got alot of point at the top of the key. Love the idea of Morris/Portis setting picks for him who are good at shooting the pick and pop or the three.
The only thing Im worried about with this team is team defense. Need to see everyone step it up on the defensive end. Need to see DSJ,Randle, RJ, Knox, Trier, Dotson, Portis all take it to the next level.
Frank and Mitch going to another level defensively would be amazing also.
Our GLeague Squad should be fire also, hopefully... Iggy, Wooten, Hinton, VJ King, Wilks and Peters

Re: Knicks camp/preseason thread - Link in OP
ive said it before training camp even started the way this team is constructed we need our point guard to be able to mainly catch and shoot and be a facilitator. Fiz already talking about using randle as a point forward
whoever is best shooting the ball and facilitating out their between frank, dennis and payton is the one that needs to start

Wow you can look at frank and see his maturation. Grew two inches since being drafted. His voice is deeper, looks thicker. He just needs confidence

Hmm, I don't ever remember KP having much of an arc on his shots. His shots looked pretty standard, very different from someone like Dirk.

i still don't. and seemingly nobody wanted him at the max or he would have gone somewhere where they don't already have a starting point guard.
the curry dlo backcourt is gonna last a month before they bench him. they're probably gonna be the worst defensive backcourt in the league.

That backcourt is more dynamic than Dame and CJ. Its probably the best backcourt in the whole league right now

they're both terrible at defense and one of them has to guard the 2 now. they're food.
