No doubt Frank is not 100%.  His struggles are clearly related to the injury, and the rust of not playing.  Some big questions to be answered are

1) how much are the problems are being caused by the injury?
2) how much is being caused by the rust?
And
3) will Frank ever get to 100% this season?

I haven’t seen much in the way of physical improvement so far.  Maybe a little but he still looks limited in terms of mobility/agility now.  I know he is back to 100% when the other team inbounds from our baseline, throws a high lob near mid court and Frank tries to outjump the recipient for it.  When he is right, he tries it about once a game and succeeds in getting the steal about half the time.

I agree that our best team offensively might well feature Carey at PG, Frank at SG and Tyus at SF.  It isn’t our best lineup but I think it is our best when we need to get points.  I think Frank, if physically and mentally right, is our best outside shooter.  He needs to get right and have someone set him up with good looks.  I am hoping that person will be Jalen.

We have the athletes to be an excellent transition team.  Maybe Frank can make adjustment and push the pace more.  He certainly has the raw tools to do it.  If not, he might need to play some SG sometimes to help jumpstart the offense.  It is going to be interesting to see how JB gets these excellent pieces to fit together.
