You guys are FUNNY! What F’n Pressure? Frank is gonna play and was not in danger of losing minutes today. Burke is hopefully going to be a nice addition but he wasn’t taking Frank’s spot.

so everyone including the commentator sees it but you??

You act like putting pressure on Nitty is a bad thing; it's not. It's good. Look at the way he's playing.

I haven't watched a single minite.....but I know basketball.....and usually I agree with nix....but have to disagree on this. Trey was a contributing factor in Frank's good play. Along with his coach and teammates and fans.....im sure everybody is in his ear. But it's good for Frank to play or see up close how penetration and shooting and being offensiveit aggressive can help the team at times.

Burke was coming REGARDLESS of Frank’s recent play. Frank has been a net positive all season while Burke is the one with something to prove. Frank was playing well in this game already before Burke’s minutes and Frank came back in on his normal rotation. Frank and Burke may actually play together going forward they’re both young guys who should figure into the plan for the future.

The offense was getting stale in the 2nd qtr and he bench frank, burke sparked a little energy, and he went back to frank for defensive purposes in the last min of he half. He tried to push the pace when he came back in the 2nd half (did a decent job) because he knows thats what they want, and they have another option if he doesn't do it.

If trey came in and out played frank, who's fault is that?

If Trey struggled or had little impact and Grank still had a good game I suppose some would be less apt to give credit to Burke’s presence. Frank has to play well and he’s proven to be SELF MOTIVATED. I choose to give Frank credit for his own performance and blame when he plays poorly. I also give Jeff some blame for Frank’s struggles when he calls for ISO Post Ups too much which he DID NOT do today. Jeff let them play more freely and I think that helped Frank more than Burke’s presence along with the opponent being the Nets!

Anyone who tries to sell the notion that Burke coming in and playing well had no impact on Frank's play just hates to be wrong, really hates it. Even Baker had his most aggressive game of the season. But we're supposed to believe that its all a coincidence. Please.

KP is sharing the rock more with every game. Hope he keeps it up. Is only hitting the floor now when he gets a call from the refs. Big improvement.

SMH. It’s not about being right or wrong. Just a matter of making too much of things that can EASILY be circumstantial. But you guys go ahead and believe what makes you feel good.
