Happy for Frank and hope he's able to make the most out of this opportunity. I don't like throwing stat expectations out since he does several positive things that doesn't show up in the box score, but I hope he's able to hit double digits in points with around 4/5 rebounds and assists.

The last couple games I've noticed how stagnant the offense is to start the game and how we run a lot of our sets with dumping the ball in the post and allowing the post player to make the reads. I really hope we start playing a lot more PnR with the primary balhandler instead of having them dump the ball to another player the moment they cross half court.

I still don't like the idea of Morris and Randle starting together since it's a bit of a sloppy tandem. If one of them (probably Morris,) plays more from the perimeter and less on the block than that would help spacing greatly.

He's much better after huh? That's interesting. Too lazy to look it up. He's making some contributions now.

Instead of stepback jumpers, his bailout move should be to drive. Guys that long can draw bailout fails or figure out a way to get it down.
He shoots 18% from 3 for his career in Novembers

34% every other month combined

This is most likely a W since Frank is starting.

This is the first official "recall" for Tacko. The time he played in NY was before the Maine Red Claws began their preseason training, so this is the first game that counts against the max 45 that a 2 way player is eligible for.

a Ntilikina-Barrett backcourt could be front-and-center for a time. Interestingly, Knicks president Steve Mills huddled with Ntilikina after Thursday’s practice but it’s unclear whether Mills influenced Fizdale’s decision-making.

Is developed Frank starting? For the slow ones, that’s Marcus Smart.

The fact that he’s making it so complicated to start Frank doesn’t speak well for him...

Wouldn’t surprise me if someone in the organization came to him and told him, the risk was too high to NOT start Frank...

Could you imagine if he didn’t start Frank and we fall behind or lose? Not only would his reputation with media and fanbase be irreversibly tarnished, He’d probably lose the locker room automatically for lack of credibility.

At least now if we lose, he can say he tried everything and is open to adjustments
