If Coach Franks was able to hang on to his job after the way we played early this season then Iam pretty sure that he is safe in terms of Ed and Rod believing in his ablity to coach this team. I think Rod Thorn knows that he has struggle the last past two offseasons to give Lawerence Franks the type of role players needed to surround the big three to make it able for Franks to Coach at his highest level. Franks is working without a dominate bigman and no bench what so ever, Its only so much he can do. The only complain I might have with Coach Franks is he has to find away to get more out of these guys on the road. This is a veteran club they shouldnt struggle the way they do away from home, but I guess that kind of figures in with poor role players, hard to beat a team in their building and you only have 3 or 4 productive guys that night.
So Coach Franks is off the hook in my opinion until the front office surrounds him with some quality players besides Kidd/Jeff/Vince.... Nenad and JC together only combines to make up one qualty bigman imo, because Nenad can score but cant guard anybody, and JC can guard but cant throw the ball in the ocean 90%, so they make up only one player together.And then you have a 40 year old Cliff Robinson, eveybody else is trash and have been extremely dissappointing especially Murray, Padgett and Marc Jackson(even tho he is gone) & Jeff McInnis(even tho he has been injured since forever). Those are all the moves Thorn made this past offseason, so us being inconsist and somewhat medicore has to fall on his shoulders a bit.
Anyway, hopefully we can put together a strong run these last few weeks and go into the playoffs with some momentum, we should be running away with this division, honestly.
