Now to find a way to work Knox in. Smith had a bad gm, but I think he will be fine when its all said and done.
Turnovers aside, thought Frank looked good out there. His handle seems to be improving. More willing to use his dribble to get by his defender. Showed some nice moves in the 4th. Shot the ball when he was supposed to. At times when he normally would pass up the shot. Still looks like a reserve to me, but also looks like he is finally starting to show real confidence out there. Might look like a reserve, but if Frank can be counted on for a little more offense, that could change. Frank might have been a little gassed at the end, but he definitely looks like he has developed more endurance. The minutes he's been getting lately, would have had him bent over, breathing very hard, not so long ago.
Those early fouls on Smith jr got him off his game, got frustrated, and never really had his head in it afterwards. Just got back to playing, still dealing with the loss of a fsmily member. Needs time to get back into the swing of things
Those 3 buckets in a row by Randle was great, but overall Randle is a hot mess. Too much heroball, too much ball stopping. Wish he would watch some film from Doncic last season. The way he gets in the paint, directs traffic, finds cutters. Is a good passer, but should not be bringing up the ball.
If this is what we will be seeing all season from Randle, hope its his only one here.
