It's the time for writers to offer their opinions on whether or not the Nets should keep Lawrence Frank on the bench this summer. Sam Smith believes "Frank's controlled style seems to have held back the team" and notes that Rod Thorn was business partners with Frank's father. John Hollinger believes that expectations were unrealistically raised after a 19-19 start, saying that was a result of a weak schedule. And Dave D'Alessandro believes Frank has "done everything he was supposed to do in a rebuilding season," noting the lack of production from the forward spots.
