Frank can be useful at times. Damian Jones doesn’t belong in the league.
Re: Suns News 12/14/20-12/20/20
Frank can hit the 3 ball and pass, Jones can get a rebound, dunk, and offer a little bit of rim protection. Some nights you'll need to go with Frank, others Jones will be more useful.Drewsprocket wrote: ↑Mon Dec 21, 2020 9:41 pmFrank can be useful at times. Damian Jones doesn’t belong in the league.

Neither does Frank and the Kings of all teams just said that. The Kings will take literally anyone and they didn’t want him.Drewsprocket wrote: ↑Mon Dec 21, 2020 9:41 pmFrank can be useful at times. Damian Jones doesn’t belong in the league.

I have never seen this happen. I guess it is allowed because Sac gave him a contract in between that we claimed waivers upon?
Frank is a good third-stringer -- just not a second-stringer. Would welcome him back if he doesn't play heavy minutes.

Welp...Frank is...something I guess. At the very least, he knows the team and system. He played in preseason so he's in shape and can play some spot minutes. He just needs to make his shots.

Frank just got waived by the team in a bigger playoff drought than the Suns.Drewsprocket wrote: ↑Mon Dec 21, 2020 9:41 pmFrank can be useful at times. Damian Jones doesn’t belong in the league.
Their last playoff team had Brad Miller, Mike Bibby and Peja Stojaković on it.

Re: Suns News 12/14/20-12/20/20
They have a lot of bigs tho with Bagley, Bjelica, Holmes, Barnes and Parker who see time at the 4 and now Whiteside so not a lot of minutes at the 4/5 for Frank - not that he should warrant any. But he's a body for us until Saric comes.
Honestly not digging the Saric vibe right now but it's still early so if he comes back healthy and plays, then it won't matter. Just hoping he get's right and does his thing off the bench.

I think it's fair to celebrate Franky K's accomplishments last season.

All comparisons are vs players who played more total minutes than Frank.

As others have said, at least he’s a body, they hopefully won’t be expected to play many minutes. Actually disappointed that we’ve taken him back. Just feels like a backwards step as so many of us were happy he’d gone.
What we do in life, echoes in eternity.
Re: Suns News 12/14/20-12/20/20
Don’t really have any feelings about Frank. Don’t think we’ll need to count on him and he’s a non gauranteed minimum deal. My issue with bringing him back was his team option for 5 million. He wasn’t worth that. He’s fine on a minimum deal.
Re: Suns News 12/14/20-12/20/20
We know that he's good for the locker room, the guys like him, and he knows the offense, so there is no ramping up for him. That's about the best I can say for Frank. He'll have good games and bad games.

Re: Suns News 12/14/20-12/20/20
Really? I wouldn't think that considering he's a Trumper.
Go Suns!

Re: Suns News 12/14/20-12/20/20
I don't understand the leap in logic to make him a bad locker room guy or teammate.

Re: Suns News 12/14/20-12/20/20
Those stats were meant to be purely silly, but I made myself sad looking at how many minutes went to players who just weren't effective.
Hopefully we get better quality minutes this season.
Booker: 2500 --> Booker: 2500
Rubio: 2000 --> CP3: 2000 (assuming he misses ~10 games
Carter: 900 --> Carter: 800
Okobo: 700 --> Payne: 800
TJ + TJ: 800 --> Galloway: 800
Bridges: 2000 --> Bridges: 2000
Cam: 1200 --> Cam: 2000
Oubre: 2000 --> Crowder: 1600
Ayton: 1200 --> Ayton: 2300
Saric: 1600 --> Saric: 1600
Baynes: 900 --> Stix: 800
Kaminsky + Diallo: 1200 --> Kaminsky + Smith: spot minutes
