<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>Jamaal Magloire’s criticisms are subtle but not subject to interpretation. As Jeff Caplan of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram writes, the newly minted Maverick “laid blame for his sedentary existence [in New Jersey] on Lawrence Frank”. Magloire says he didn’t play because of “coaching decisions. My game hasn’t changed from when I’ve been an All-Star,” Magloire said. “My work ethic hasn’t changed, in fact it’s improved.”</div> Magloire working his way back - Jeff Caplan - Fort Worth Star-Telegram Why does EVERYONE blame Frank now?
he's claiming he's better than he was during his All-Star season? That's funny. Next, when he doesn't get back to that form it will all be because Frank didn't play him for 3 months.
Come on now, everyone knows it's coach's decision on everything. Thorn did not come down and tell Frank to not play the guy I just made a 4 million dollar commitment to. It was Frank's decision, and why it keeps coming up, the media keeps asking him.

This is the one thread where Frank should be applauded for not playing someone this year. And yet people are still bitching about his coaching. Doesn't anyone remember how awesome Magloire played when he was on the court for the Nets? New Jersey has underacheived, but I have yet to hear a decent replacement for Frank mentioned in all the complaining.
I thought we were talking about Magloire's lack of reality edit: thank you, charles. So you guys bashing Frank in this thread, based on the context, are taking Magloire's side on this one? How?
