But, he has not looked hesitant out there, either. He clearly isn’t afraid to let those open shots rip, and as we know around here, that is important. On defense, he is every bit the difference maker that we’ve always heard advertised. There was a play last night when he effectively took the opposing center, who was killing the Mavs all night, completely out of a pick and roll with his body. He seems to just have a great sense of how to play defense, both on ball and help.
If I was Sterling Brown, I would be a little bit worried today.
So far every time Frank is on the court you can feel him on defense. He has that intensity long arms and quickness. On offense he can be good but he is not reliable as a starter. I can see him being a solid 20-25 minute guy off the bench. As far as Brunson I am a bit confused why everyone wanted a secondary playmaker as he is exactly that. No way Dragic is better than him at this point in his career. If Brunson can get around 30 minutes a night I wonder if he would stay long term in Dallas. Bullock so far looks like a good signing. Not signing Lowery was the best thing that could have happened this offseason.
