All Frank does on offense is bring the ball up and pass it the first chance he gets. Teams already know he's not a factor on offense.

Is jeff telling him to penetrate and draw fouls? If so, he's not listening and would have been pulled a while ago. We don't know what's going on there to say for sure.

He's shown the ability to penetrate. I don't know what y'all expect from a 19 year old rookie pg. Y'all need to dial it back a little. If he's still doing this next year we can be concerned.

Draft Sexton, make Frank a combo 2 guard type. Stop using his age as an excuse. Dudes come in the league as teens everyday B. He's played 19 games. The passiveness needs to stop.

:childplease: If this team is tanking and in the top 5, ain't no fukking reason they would draft Sexton.
Fix your face :birdman:

They're not tanking. They are not out there legitimately trying to lose games. I see them ending up with a top 10 pick as opposed to a top 5. Thus the sentiment behind my post :whoa:

What I wouldn’t do to have bagley or aynton on this knicks team. We desperately need a legit young superstar to pair with KP.

Doesn’t seem like we’ll get a top 5 pick. There is good talent at the 6-10 pick, probably not a superstar but definitely a solid player. Top 5 is a goal but I’d settle for

Sexton
Bridges
Knox
Diallo
Jackson jr

Tied with Miami for the 8th spot, a lottery pick is looking better and better :ohlawd:

I still think we need another good piece in the draft and a good free agent signing, maybe two. Versatile role players...

We need a Lance Thomas with offense
We’re definitely not gonna sustain this level of play all season. Especially if KP sits out more games (he needs to sit atleast 10 more games). We should be pulling the trigger on possible trades by all star break as well, perhaps lee and oquinn and maybe even kanter.

My dream lineup after allstar break

Sessions
Dotson
Hardaway
Thomas
Willy
 

Derek Lee

I still think that there's an outside chance of this team slipping in the top five, but I agree; pick's probably in the 7-12 range. Yeah, they're gonna need to draft another high end talent in the lottery this year. Only having on one superstar on the roster to compete against potential juggernauts like Boston and Philadelphia in the same division and conference is not gonna cut it unfortunately.
