<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Lawrence Frank
Frank has developed a reputation as a hard worker (even by NBA head coaching standards) and sound X's and O's man, and it has become obvious that his players respect him, but that still hasn't done much for New Jersey's record over the last few years. At the end of the day, and the fourth quarter of a close game, you need players who are internally motivated and have the skills to do a reasonable job of defending. Frank hasn't gotten that from the bulk of his roster this season -- even as the team won eight of 11 to finish the season at .500.</div>
