Message: [QUOTE="bballbeadle, post: 1938368, member: 548"] I would say otherwise than SoBeCuse. He seemed to be an unconfident player and I was surprised to see his mistakes and hesitancy. However, we have seen many reports of how he is doing in practice and by all accounts, he is vastly improved. It may be that last night he was playing not to get yanked, which is never good. Then Boeheim yelled at him at least once; he denied that this negatively affected him. I have never understand how verbal abuse, er, I mean coaching has successfully motivated people in sports and in the armed services. It makes no sense to me (who has had experience with neither). I liked how Franklin played better in the second half and had some sweet baskets. But I would say in the first half he played with one eye on the bench. So much for my subjective opinion. :noidea: [/QUOTE]
