Some of it is cliche, but Lawrence Frank gives a good interview.

If that was meant to sell me

it didn’t. but i will reserve judgement until i see what he can actually do. what i do like about him is that he doesn’t look as clueless in front of the camera as Kuester…i always felt with Kuester that i could see him trying to think about what to say. he had a George W look of absolute cluelessness, like “holy shit, there are cameras on me and i have to say somethin smart right about now.”

Honestly, I think his broadcast experience probably helped immensely with that...

Jonas Jerebko once killed a charging female rhinoceros in heat protecting its young with nothing more than a hook shot.

Cliches and rhetoric. Reminded me of listening to a Tebow interview.

Early in the clip, all I could think about was Chuck Daly.

Later in the clip, all I could think about was how high Frank had his sideburns trimmed.

all I could think about

is how much he looks like a sunburned version of my junk.

"Mike Payne is a walking-talking-hate-spewing-fire-breathing example of how exactly NOT to use supposed "statistical" analysis in the game of basketball."

Cynical comment below is cynical

If I had the energy, I would compare this speech to Michael Curry’s and John Kuster’s first speeches. I bet we’d see plenty of parallels.

Over or under: 50 games into this season, a large, loud group of Pistons fans will be calling for Frank’s head on a platter.

"With logic he attacks. With statistics he defends."

Push. It will happen at exactly game 50: no sooner, no later.

Absolutely. We need actions, anything less will not do.
