Handle, schmandle. Who cares? The goal is to win games and so far Frank has proven to be a gamer.

On the FB thing, there's only one stat that actually matters: Possessions per game. So far we rank 245th at 70.9 PPG down .9 from last year. There's exactly zero chance that has anything to do with anybody's handle and everything to do with how the coach wants to play. You can debate forever if Frank's handle is loose, whatever, but the only fact that matters is how many times do we have a chance to score. Right now, we have 7.4 chances less than Buffalo, which ranks 15th at 78.3. Those 7.4 chances equate to 14.8 points at minimum and 22.2 points at maximum. But there's a catch...in general, the teams that have more possessions and run up and down are from lesser leagues. So, there's your FB, have at it. For the better teams, the game is by and large a half court deal. FBs may look good but they're not the strength of power teams.
