This is turning into an epidemic. Crazy how these injuries are cropping up so early.

In limited time, DSjr looks like a great talent. Question before was could he run a team. In summer league, and now, it sure seems it. Biggest challenge is can he stay healthy? Frank? He is looking like a bust! I'm sorry, but is he ever going to play? No summer league, no training camp? |

Take 10 things. A few will be a bust then you get to bask in the glory of "See I told you" all the while nobody will hold you accountable for the things that you missed. |

HofstraBBall wrote:That would be just as useless as the examples I used and that's the point. Making any determination either way this early is ridiculous. And fans who are going to compare box scores after every game are just going to drive themselves crazy. DSjr. could go on to win rookie of the year and STILL not end up being a better player than Frank long term.Welpee wrote:franco12 wrote:After 4 games I bet Philly was happy they drafted Michael Carter-Williams over Giannis Antetokounmpo:HofstraBBall wrote: |

He's a natural scorer and he can get to the rim, I'd still hesitate to call him a point guard. I agree, it's frustrating not to see Frank play. In the limited minutes he has played, he's shown he can at least run a PnR, make tight pocket passes and play D. He's probably one of the members of the team who knows the plays if you believe recent player comments. I doubt Horny's offense is half as complicated as Strasbourg's .We'd suck this year, regardless if we had DSjr or Monk. Mind as well bring Frank in slowly. The tank is on. There's no saving the season. Wait till Frank and DSjr play a few games before determining who's a bust. Remember, 8 teams passed over DSjr. There must have been a reason. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.
