Players respected him but I feel the reason behind that is because Frank is a push over and the players were able to do whatever the hell they wanted to. Hence VC taking 30 miserable shots a game. Why does VC do that in Orlando too? Cause Van Gundy is the same type of coach.

I don’t think this will help or hurt VC, he’s just struggling and what do shooters do? Shoot their way out of it. If he wanted to fix the problem he would stop listening to everyone and watch video of himself taking idiotic shots and drive to the hoop. Problem solved.

And they did stop fighting under him, that’s why he got fired.

Douglas-Roberts was playing over his head for a while and Devin Harris has been hurt. I don’t think that has anything to do with Frank not being there; I think it has to do with the season being lost.

He is by himself, struggling to play within the team’s needs and he needs guidance. I know you everyone hates Lawrence Frank (including myself), but every player respects him. When Frank was the coach of the Nets, they never gave up on him, they kept on fighting and was upset when Frank was fired. That speaks volume when your team goes 0-16 to start a season.

Now, you see the team not even trying. Chris Douglas-Roberts has disappeared, Devin Harris is nowhere the player he was last season, and as a team look careless.

Frank is a terrible coach in a terms of play design, system, and execution, but he is a terrific player’s coach. He can calm VC down and rebuild his confidence. I wouldn’t be suprised if I saw an improvement. Last night’s performance could be the start of a change in his game.

A change for the better.

You know you’re in trouble when Frank comes to town! Let’s be serious, Frank probably have to pay his own way AND he sat coach haha (no pun intended).
