Nets won't go outside organization if they fire Frank
NY Post
By Fred Kerber
Frank is left to answer virtually every day questions about how he can remain so gosh-darn peppy when the executioner is around the corner. And with the Nets making national news as they approach the dubious 0-17 start achieved by an expansion team (Heat, '88-89) and the Nets West (Clippers, '98-99), the coaching death watch is on.
Names have floated. But make no mistake. The same organization that required workers to take Fridays off in the summer to save money is not going outside. If Frank is canned, one of the current staff or GM Kiki Vandeweghe (whose name pops up in discussions more and more) will likely take over. Forget experience. All those candidates have one major requirement on the resume.

Meanwhile, the whispers about Frank’s future continue. If Frank gets fired, his replacement will likely come from in-house as the organization continues to pinch pennies.
Another article that gathers some reaction from the 88-89 Miami Heat and the 99-00 LA Clippers, aka, the two teams the Nets could soon be challenging for infamy.
