    I cant believe he had this line-up(armstrong, wright, rj, nachbar, and collins), in the beginning of the 4th.

    I can't believe the Nets only scored 9 points in the 4th Q. They had 19 shots attempted, only made 3 buckets. They should have let Vince take all 19 shots, he would have made more than 3 lol.

    but Celts D is really something! I can see them playing Spurs in the season finale.

    That's the ugliest lineup ever. Puts way to much pressure on RJ and Boki.

    I don't know, the other guys did need a rest, didn't they? I'd probably rather see Carter out there with that group, but I guess Frank wanted to rest him.

    I think everyone who's posted in this thread would make a terrible NBA coach (myself included).

    Everyone bitches about who's playing when, but Frank not only has to balance minutes but egos. Plus, he's probably watched more game tape this year than you'll watch over your entire lifetime. I think it's much more likely he was seeing something you guys weren't than vice versa.

    The man works harder at his job than we probably ever will at ours. He has the respect of his players and his organization. Every scout I've ever heard talk about him seems to praise his offensive and defensive schemes. These are not common qualities among NBA coaches. These things are hard to find, especially in conjunction.

    He's young. He'll make some mistakes here and there. But I don't understand why we're so damn focused on the few negative points about him when he has so many good things going for him.

    Is it possible to have 2 head coaches? Because I'd love to see Frank paired with an offensive-minded coach, somehow. That'd be pretty cool.

    Hahahahahahahahah....AMEN!
    Just cause a coach works hard doesnt mean they are good...or even intelligent. Sometimes in life people get a job due to there work ethic and sometimes people get there job because of talent...its time to get a coach with talent.

    Boone wasn't playing very well to start the season, and Williams looked lost most of the time early on. How many options did he really have?

    An offense that optimizes the use of available talent. A defense that hides our team's weaknesses (most notably, a lack of shot-blocking) as effectively as possible. He functions well as an extension of the front office, and the players function effectively as an extension of him. A defense-first attitude that is the common factor in every NBA champion's coach since before I was born. He's never thrown any of his players under the bus in an interview with the press ever (a problem, you might recall, we had with our previous coach). And a work ethic that not only makes him one of, if not the best, game-planner in the league, but also has earned him the respect of his players, the team president and the team owner.

    I don't know if Lawrence Frank is a better coach than the rest of the guys in the league (although, my suspicion is that he is for many of them), but I do know that he lives, breathes and understands basketball, and that if he thought our best chance to win was to start Collins and Allen, then he probably knew something we didn't. And the consistent arrogance and outright idiocy some of you show by flipping this, and assuming that HE must be stupid and WE must be the ones seeing something he doesn't drives me to write posts like this that will have absolutely 0 impact on the way you consider this issue.

    Man, I need to get a life...
