<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE ("Reggie Theus")</div><div class='quotemain'>"One of the first things I looked at was I wanted guys with street credibility," he said. "Guys who, when they walked through the door, players knew they knew what they were talking about.

"I also looked at guys who were tall. I just think that when you have to look at guys eye-to-eye, if you can do that, the ability to get the message across is more easily accomplished."</div>

....agreed a little fear factor. L Frank doesn't have that, taking the road to allow VC, Kidd and RJ their share of mistakes without discusssion. Look what it's done, his star wants out and is causing a huge disruption to the team.

This is what most people on this board dont understand.

BBall player respect a person that has played the game and is telling them something rather than someone that has studied it.

I remember seeing frank trying to teach krstic to rebound and throw his elbows out to guard the ball and it was hilarious and pathetic. krstic was looking at him like a fool!!!

frank hasnt won a thing and never will.

How do we know there is no discussion? If he doesn't call out players to the press does that mean he doesn't discuss there mistakes with them?
