Ntlikina and Vonleh were clearly the best Harden defenders

I wish Dot spent more time on him as well.

Ntlikina has three plays that stood out for me. The steal followed by a slick behind the back and underhand pass to Mitch on the break. I want to see him get in the passing lanes more and become a more explosive off-ball defender with his length. He had a nice touch pass off a high catch to Knox for 3 with the shot clock going down. Also, isolated Nene put the moves on him penetrated and swung a pass to the corner to Dotson for an open three he made.

He needs to work on his finishing (still timid) and shooting (still bricking wide open looks).

Also I dunno what past problems I've seen but this Frank is the definition of a true point guard. The reason why he doesn't score more just like Knox is because there's to many iso players on the floor. This initially hindered Knox. He does remind me of Nash with great defense.
He has shown some precision passing but i gotta admit i feel his offensive woes has more to do with the iso players

His form is nice, i bet he hits almost everything in practice. It could take Frank between 3 to 5 years of repetition before he becomes more confident in his scoring.

I like his attitude and his work ethic. To me it would be crazy to trade him because i see alot of potential in him

Saw something I never seen in Frank before last night, he felt some type a way that Tucker was locking him down and actively challenged him twice. Frank tried to take him off the dribble, that was good to see even though he didn’t make both of the attempts. Wish I could find a clip of it, you could visually see him change when Tucker was guarding him on those possessions.

He got schooled a couple of times by Harden, but Robinson's size and length gave him some fits at times. Blocked two of step back three pointers and effectively trapped him which forced a couple of turnovers. Probably the only big on the team that can hedge and recover to his man. Once Mitchell figures out the conditioning, discipline, nuances of positioning, verticality, etc., he arguably has the highest upside of the non-KP players on this roster.

His off ball defense is gonna come as he gets smarter. When he tries to play the passing lanes he leaves himself open to the back door cause his lack of explosive athleticism doesn’t let him recover in time.

Yup, the accountability when it comes to Mud is pretty much nonexistent :ld:
