People know hes a great defender, but watching this really highlights how impactful he truly is. He's able to contest everything and get in just about any passing lane. His on ball defense is sensational....He's a lock for the best defensive point guard in the league pretty soon if he isnt already with room to be so much more as well. Thats a foundational piece right there
Theres no way you trade that.. you build that up until the beast is unleashed. The foundation is elite, the offense just need consistency. Frank needs show out this season
Great video, I wish Frankie Clamps would get more respect. his offense is not there yet and people should understand that it takes time for certain players. he damn sure is an elite defender though
He grew another inch and a half and added 15lbs, look out for DPOY, MIP, and maybe all defensive first team! Kid is such a special rare talent. Mind you, he only started learning how to finish around the rim at the end of "MARCH"! Let that sink in a little. Idk why they waited till the end of the season, but usually that's one of the first thing as a guard that you learn. Am i right? Or no?. Smh Thank God we have a Real coach now in Coach Fizdale, and is already teaching that stuff. Let's go frank, Lets go Knicks!☝👍
He played basketball his whole life, he was pro in 2015 in france so i think he finished around the rim a lot during his path lol, its just i think he needs time to adapt to the nba, and devloppment, musculation etc to grow, just like giannis or these type of players, maybe he'll get very good, maybe not, time will tell.
Huge Knicks Fan i hope Knicks develops him this year because the last 4 coaching change had hurt his development along with the management circus that Knicks always have. This guy had the potential to be an defensive superstar who will be guarding opposing Superstars. But he needs to develop a 3pt shooting 40% and needs to stay healthy. He is a keeper for sure.
Another great draft pick by great Phil Jackson. BTW Was Frank in all defensive team (should be in at least third team)? In a league with so many 'scoring guards' it's nice to see a lockdown defender like him. Reminds me of young Kawhi
There’s so much wrong with this comment lmao, for starts he wasn’t on an all defensive team, and there isn’t an all defensive 3rd team. Your ball knowledge is a -12
The fact remains he is 20 yrs old with a year in the nba under his belt, he is only going to get better. Nobody had to tell him work hard and hustle he does it naturally, hopefully Fiz is the type of coach that sees this and is not fooled by objects in the mirror that are not what they appear.
I swear they better keep Frank or within the next 3 years, the Knicks will eat crow once again from giving up on young talent to early like usual! SMH The kids defense is elite, but doesn't get the recognition that he deserves because he isn't a scorer yet! He is the perfect compliment to RJ Barret!
omg it was only his rookie season . look at how scary he looks defensively, its fuckin scary. once tht offensive game comes into play then we got the best pick in the 2017 draft 😩 #FrankNitti #FrenchPrince 🔝
Lol, Caroline Woz... I like how they were talking about David Lee's engagement and all, and I do respect woz's game, but... I seriously wish she never won a major... Out of all of the women's game, she was the most boring player in the WTA...
For now he is, but frank hasn't been given the time to grow on the court like everyone else has. Kid learned at the end of the season last year how to finish around the rim. Give him 2 to 3 more years to show what he's got. They did say it would take 4 to 5 years before we know what Frank would be when he was drafted. The talent is clearly there, so is his bball IQ & on ball defense, now is the time they need to keep developing him. He is already working hard in the gym this off-season. Frank would be a perfect compliment next to RJ Barret!
