By the way. Kemba was a -13 with a 0 EFF rating. The Frank effect.

Fornier was on Donovan (who had a big scoring game). Frank really gave Kemba problems. Frank had the 2nd best +/- and when he and Gobert checked in late in the 4th France took over and totally locked them down. Frank it a big 3 to tie it as well. Some decent highlights on the Fiba site but they are blocked here for me at work. Frank looked like the player we desperately need. Lock down defender and hits big shots.

He was a very unorthodox yet super effective point guard that turned a disorganized France attack in the third quarter into an unstoppable force. THIS is the blueprint for using Frank as an impact unique weapon off the bench. He is a winning player that when used in a system can make an impact even if the stats at the end are mild. Fizdale ain’t no coach. Should be fired on the spot for doing absolutely zero with the players. Frank is doing what he is doing because he got away from the Knicks BS. He trained away from them in Dallas got back to his home roots in France this equals confidence. Playing a system less shyt show which Fizdale runs is a disaster for basketball players especially ones that have basketball I.Q. |

Frank is such a weird player to evaluate- he seems to have a positive impact on the game despite pedestrian individual stats, feels it's always been the way with him

It's easy to look up PPG and FG%, it's all in the boxscore, harder to figure out how a defensive player impacts games. For a guard especially, you have steals and... and what else to look at in terms of defense? Deeper look can show you PnR defense efficiency (and other) but that is still dependent on other players working in combination. Plus/Minus? Same thing.

It's all about Frank's head, and where it's at in terms of his confidence level. He knows his place on the French team. They play pretty good team ball on the offensive end, and we all know what Frank can give you on D. It is a good fit for him.
Still say Fizdale should have given him consistent minutes, no matter how he played, last year, and just let him go through his growing pains. He is too unselfish, and doesn't yet understand how good he can be on offense if he gets by the hesitation he always shows on that end of the court. Another issue is defensive intensity. You can't try to do too much on D if you want to have the energy to play significant minutes each night. Hard to play lock down D at the PG position for 30+ minutes each night and not have it affect your offensive game. He still has a team first Euro mentality, and I don't think it always translates well in the NBA...at least with the style of play we showed last year. He needs to learn to pick his spots and be "situationally selfish," on offense. Glad he chose a big game to have his best game in the tournament. There are three classes of men; lovers of wisdom, lovers of honor, and lovers of gain. (Plato)

Not a ten piece or even a 5 piece. Just one. We've seen Frank have good games, always comes down to earth. Whats encouraging is that Frank stepped up when it mattered. Doesnt have to be the guy who can carry the team offensively in the 4th. We have guards that can do that. Does have to show he can be a threat though. Games like this will make NBA teams think twice about dropping off on him, if Frank can be consistent. In the meantime, hardcore Frank supporters, "No Fried Chicken for you.. Next!" |
