![]() the Knicks score 5.8 more points per 100 possessions and give up 5.7 fewer when Ntilikina is on the court. The resulting plus 11.5 total is easily the best among Knicks who have seen at least 150 minutes
https://www.cleaningtheglass.com/stats/team/20/onoff#tab-team_efficiency Position Estimate +/- Per 100 Poss. Turnovers Fouls Committed Fouls Drawn Misc. I think the biggest thing we are seeing is his improved strength and conditioning. He's physically fierce and can still get stronger. He's agile. His offense is going to come. He's too long to be so bad. I feel like his biggest potential is the pull up midrange game. He's starting to show some nice moves there and if he can get consistent will really help his PG play. Defenders still sag and dont respect his offense. His handle is undeniably better than last year and he's shown a shifty quickness I have not seen in the past "winning is more fun... then fun is fun" -Thibs

The resulting plus 11.5 total is easily the best among Knicks who have seen at least 150 minutes It’s nice to see we are a better team with him on the floor. As far as his offense , he doesn’t need to score a ton but needs to keep the defense honest. His shooting percents are still dead even with his career percents. No improvement whatsoever. And his midrange game looks good in theory but it’s the least efficient shot in basketball and should be limited. Bottom line he needs to shoot better than 32% from 3pt since he’s only taking open ones. 35% plus or he will remain a liability and best served as a backup. He might be throwback but in today’s game he must hit an open shot. He can get there but at some point needs to show improvement. |

That's why he is such a polarizing player and why guys like knicks1248 hates him because he doesn't fit the view of what a PG has to be in todays NBA. Dude I like frank as much as i like anyone on the roster. I don't like his role on the team, just like i don't like Randle as a Point Fwd, or melo without a true veteran pg. Our starting pg is dead last in ppg among all points guards, starters and the ones coming off the bench
49 point guards in the league shoot better and score more points... we can't win consistently like that, and it's clearly obvious ES
