Another reminder: Frank is still the same age as Mitch Rob. He’ll probably never be a great offensive player, but he still has plenty of room to grow, especially as a pg.

A reminder that they were in the second game of aback to back and missing their best player. That’s not to say Hardaway is an all star but this is a super young team that isn’t that good or experienced to begin with and then you take out Hardaway who accounts for about 24 points a game for them. Is anyone really that shocked?

I’ve been as much a Frank optimist as anyone, but he was really terrible last night. Defense was ok I guess but talk about having zero impact on the offensive end of the court. Even as the supposed PG on the court, he just gives up the ball after crossing half court and runs to the corner. Is that what he is being told to do?

I actually didn’t think Mudiay looked so bad. Offense was about the same as usual although it seemed he didn’t fall down quite as much as usual, but I think I actually saw him get over screens last night on defense as opposed to dying on them every time.

So depressing. Only Z-man and the Zionists are happy (sounds like name of a music band).

Got no defense for Frank other than his defense. Send him to the G league for a month and tell him he needs to put up 20 fga/game to return.

Offense looked so stagnant at start. Almost no PnRs, no set plays. Is this on Frank or the coach?

The camera showed Fiz talking up a storm at the end during timeouts. Given what happened after the timeouts, wouldn’t “Give ball to Zo, anything you want” have been sufficient?

Remember how bad the team looked after KP’s injury which was proof that KP is a very good player? Is this true of Timmy then or maybe KP’s not so great? Very depressing to think about.

I watched game at gym on the elliptical. I couldn’t stop exercising to watch or the attached TV screen would have died. I was so rooting for game not to go into overtime. By the end, even the refs were eager to get outta there and head to a nice restaurant when they called that foul. And I felt like I had just ran a marathon through the Gobi desert.

I hope tomorrow morning I wake up a lot happier.
