theres no such thing ad positionless basketball lol
its just a catchy phrase
frank played the 2 the entire game and was not giving freedom to run the offensive like the other 2 guards
same shyt happened when horn wss here
i will be monitoring the rest of the pre season to see if fitz trust frank to run the offense, if not, then its pretty telling
frank is not a 2 no matter how tall he gets
we drafted him to be our point guard of the future.I mean, it's what he's calling it. Having hybrids all over the court and looking for 5s to push it up court. What would you call it?
He's been transparent. It's one game. No need to compare it to the previous regime. And if after 5 pre season games he's not the primary handler, so what? He has consistent pushed not having a traditional primary guard. Doesn't prove anything, isn't telling of anything. If he's out there defending, getting some buckets and assists and the team is winning, is the sticking point really going to be Frank isn't the primary ball handler, I was right?
we drafted him to be our point guard of the future.
if hes not our point guard of the future, and is just gonna be a natural defender (with no natural offensive skills)
than that is tellin and needs to be addressed next season.
because trey and mudiay aint our long term solution at point guard either. so we would need one.
it also means that if frank isnt our starting point guard, then he might be an bench player for us. he is not a shooting guard
if you watched the game yesterday, both mudiay and trey took turns playing "primary" point guard, so im not sure what you are talking about
u said fitz has pushed the idea of us having no primary ball handler, and im just pointing out that mudiay and trey were primary ball handlers last night when on the floor.When/where did I say he was the primary ball handler?
The whole basis of my response is so the fukk what if he isn't the primary ball handler? You have a coach actively touting going against the traditional concept of playing 5 on 5 ball and dismiss it as buzz words.
You have a coach actively talking about using multiple ball handlers and your sticking point and focus is whether or not Frank is the primary because he was drafted by a different regime to be the point of the future.
Dog...different management. Different vision. Maybe Frank becomes the primary. Maybe he doesn't. Maybe Burke is in the plans. Maybe they innovate. Why is the automatic thought that dude doesn't trust him? Just let it play out. The worst case scenario is you're right and he doesn't trust him and even then you have a coach willing to think outside the box, put players in positions they can succeed in and maximizes strengths where they like, irrespective of whatever "future" tag someone might have. Wouldn't that be a good thing?
Arguably the best perimeter defender in the nba, with a better handle ( and likely a better spot up shooter too)? I'd be happy with that. People kind of underestimate how important Roberson was to the Thunder last year.
We won the Melo trade for Kanter and the second rounderWilly putting up 16/10 in 16 minutes brehs...:howobama:
Knicks aint won a trade since they got Earl the Pearl........
