Why would Jeff open the floor for Frank? Thought he was a defensive player? You want a guy who hates the offensive spotlight to be more on blast> Think your also taking Burkes sets from when he had the hot hand and it made sense to showcase him. Did I miss a game when Frank was that hot? Agree about facts. Here are some rookie facts: 'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020

To be fair Smith gets 8 more mins per game and a 28% usage compared to Franks 17% usage. 1.3 more ast on 10% more usage. If they held the same usage Frank would average more assist. Smith would be able to produce more point though. Smiths 27 ast% per game for his 28 usage % is pretty good as well. They both get a stl a game while Frank again plays 8 mins less. So again if they played the same mins Frank would average more stls. Wont argue though that Smith is currently the better player. Which is expected since he was voted to be ROY before the season started. https://vote.nba.com/en Vote for your Knicks.

Was not looking to emphasize Smith. Cant even compare Frank to Burke yet. Offensively. 'Knicks focus should be on players that have grown up playing soccer or cricket' - Triplethreat 8/28/2020

Yeah. He has been a pleasant surprise. Good for him. Long road coming to a possible nice ending. Still think we need to give Frank the starting job after the break, if we sold some of our vets. Think Jack may be one of them as some are looking for an experienced back up. Then we can have Frank taking most of the minutes and Burke backing up.

That's the dilemma, if Burke is outplaying Frank then you have to start him over him. While long term it would be ideal for Frank to be a complete 2 way floor general while Burke is an offensive explosion off the bench. We may not have to force it this season. Frank needs to earn it and beat out Burke by showing he can lead the team to wins. But the premise of the thread is an interesting concept. As we all want Frank to be more aggressive. So the idea that I believe Nix is trying to bring up is to put him in more attacking situations forcing him to do so. Putting him in the sets that Jeff has currently been putting him in only has made him more passive. He isn't confident and I don't believe has the handle at the moment to weave through traffic in the sets that he currently plays in. But to Jeffs dilemma, he has vets that can put the ball in the hole. So he would have to limit their touches to feed and try to develop Frank. They may not be willing to do all that until they are eliminated from playoff contention. https://vote.nba.com/en Vote for your Knicks.
