Mark Cuban has always been enamored with ex Knicks players. I wish it was any team BUT them but otherwise good for Frank and I hope it works out |

I will never understand the rancor a lot of Knicks fans have concerning Frank Ntilikina. He's a good man who played hard for us when he got on the court. HE didn't choose himself over Donovan Mitchell. Phil Jackson did and it's him that should take the brunt of criticism. Instead a lot of fans take it personal like it's all Frank's fault he didn't develop into a starter or significant rotation contributor. He was NEVER going to be a player like Donovan. Few are.
I too hate he's going to Dallas but I wish Frank all the luck regardless.

Yes he seems to be a nice kid. Maybe he can have some success running from the ball while Luka plays both his and Frank's positions. But I already prefer both rookie guards. 15th man ok.
My last memory of Stank was his totally botching defending the Trae Young screen roll at the end of the playoff game. Ernie Digregorio could have defended it that well. Not quite Tony Allen. Not even Grayson Allen. More like Steve Allen. |

Thibs was a fool not to get the best of out of ONE of the best defensive players on the team, don't play him ALL playoffs or regular season, and then puts him in the most crucial possession ICE COLD. Like who does that? You can blame Frank for not playing hard or just playing below his draft order or like a thousand others things, but that last possession he blundered is on the coach. He should've been salivating at having a player similar to Deng on the floor and Thibs blundered that opportunity. Other than that I agree with you. |

had trae pulled up for a shot then ICE COLD matters. But to misplay the screen/trap part indicated a lack of discipline, and or intelligence. since it is hard to play Scaredy Cat when the team itself could not score he probably shouldn't be in there.

I would never be fully able to explain my disdain for Frank's game. More than fill - NO. As we all know, I detest Fill and the mail in job he pulled in NY. But Frank being a good man that played hard means little. My pastor is a good man He can't play for the Knicks. Ron Baker played hard. Whoop dee damn doo. Rancor? Don't run from the ball into the opposite corner.

Frankie still had the deer in headlights look after years in the league,it's frustrating to see a guy never develop guts on the court,or just be more aggressive. He was very frustrating to root for for sure too many letdowns and sporadic hope games.I'm so happy to get rid of his ass,but we are still talking about him,he is a nice guy but I want a point guard nice or not.

I dont believe I'm taking it personally at all. I think many of those supporting him are taking it personally. Team has 14 players I definitely prefer to Frank. Not counting Vildoza or Jericho Sims (and i do actually prefer Sims) I also prefer the stash (Rokas Jokubaitis). frank had minimal success here and his calling card was that putrid breakdown at a crucial playoff moment . Not my fault RANK STANK
