Frank is going to struggle in our so called system. We're still confused on offense and can't push the pace.

Smith would have been perfect.

Yea, but Phil Jackson isn't an idiot. I has to go deeper than that, I think the Knicks franchise were looking for a complete "character" change. Thats why they got so many foreign/white players now. :manny:

I can almost guarantee that if the draft had been held a week later, when Phil was let go, Dennis Smith would've been the pick. By all accounts, the room was split down the middle, half wanting Smith and half wanting Frank, and a few supporters of Malik Monk. Phil was already hip deep in trying to force the triangle on the team, and Frank fit that big PG he loved. Smith would've had the city going crazy the first time he drove the lane and finished, defensive limitations aside.

He has no feel for the game and can’t defend at all. Knicks may have the worst PG rotation in the league. Him, Payton, and Niktina all suck
