It’s Official: Frank to Stay
As we reported the other day, Lawrence Frank will return to the Nets as 
head coach, according to a report on WFAN. The note was published in the Post yesterday.
I understand people not familiar with TKB may have found it strange that such a note would appear on a “rival” blog, but when I sent the note to SNY, where my NBA column appears, it was linked to here.
What we knew, and was confirmed by our source is that Rod Thorn is a big fan of Frank’s, although not everyone in the organization is. But the fact that they would have paid Frank a buyout may have been the overriding factor in the decision to keep him. Plus, it’s Thorn’s call.
Frank, who’s weathered the storm as the Nets try to position themselves to add some talent after trading both Jason Kidd and Richard Jefferson, has a roster that consists of plenty of young talent including Brook Lopez and Ryan Anderson so the organization must feel Frank is the right coach at this time.
