Ridiculous how the criticism has exploded while he's been injured. If he can nail down that 3pt shot (which looks fine form-wise), then he's going to be a good contributor off the bench- who else are we going to get for $3mil? (by moving his salary). The thing that gives me hope tis Frank, is that when he plays well it has a positive impact on the game (as oppose to DSJ who can post big stats that have no baring on the outcome)
The concern is that we take the hit on the early stage developmental years with him being so young. While another team goes on to reap the benefits.
I think he becomes a rotation wing/secondary ball handler that might be a defensive stopper on a teams second unit. I think how the roster is constructed might play a role in if he is back. I remember reading that if Frank is moved the Knicks can keep Dot and Trier and still have cap space for 2 max deals.
