Brazil beat Greece. Giannis!

Blog on Frank play. Im not much on Blogs as they are regurgitation of others works. This one is no different but its a collection of quotes. Players are complimentary after a win.......

Franks contract is $6,100,000 team option for next year. About 8mm for qualifying offer the next.

If you pay Ron Baker 4.5mm, you pay just turned 21 year old Frank. If his contract prevents the team from a big free agent signing then I might think otherwise. If we just think one year at a time, you just go with one year at a time. Knicks will have him in camp and have to decide by Oct 31st.

Giannis scored 13 pts and fouled out against Brazil. He was the League MVP last year. He should have scored 100 pts right?
None of this is conclusive...........Wide divide on Frank love and Frank hate. I not the one that has to believe in him or not, but I can root for his success!

One bad deal deserves another? Mills signed Baker before Perry got here. If anything Perry should avoid making the same mistake.

Baker was a good defender, a willing passer, but with little or no offense. Was allergic to the rim. Baker was a team player and was rewarded with a overly generous contract.

Dont want to see Perry make the same mistake, if Frank comes back putting up the same numbers, still allergic to the rim.

Did anyone say to sign him if he has not improved? Baker was 23 his rookie season. I’m suggesting relative value IF THE KNICKS STIL THINK HE HAS UPSIDE. Not sign him cuz Nalod thinks so.

Thought you just did. When you argued that we should give Frank another deal. Because we gave one to Baker.

Not argued. I’m not building a case.
I’m describing relative value and scenario. If Knicks think he still has the upside and demonstrating improvement then there is value. Baker more than Anything could not sustain health. His 4mm contract per year was not a franchise killer. For Frank to get his extension it keeps him here for the next two seasons. For fans its easy to want the hindsight. For the talent evaluators you have to project. All teams are wrong. Its a statistical process.
If you encapsulate the Baker contract at the time it was given vs. hindsight its a different look.
Also have to look at the talent on the roster at that moment. What was Baker being offered by other teams at that time.

So if my math is correct, I believe he has 42 points?

Jokic is also the best player in the tournament
