...if I asked you to fill in the first blank below? It's an excerpt from an article I just in this week's SI.
________succeeds while playing with an intense fury, much the same as he played as a kid. “Exact same game,” says ____. “Fearless, pit-bull competitor, not backing down from anybody.” He is an outstanding three-point shooter (a career-best ____% this year, rising to ____% in the fourth quarter), but his game grows from relentless attacks on the rim. “He gets low and he explodes,” says ______. “He’s like an NFL running back going through holes.” He's is built accordingly, a solid ___ pounds.

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." - Mark Twain "Innocents Abroad"
Sure fits Frank.

5'9" NBA player Isaiah Thomas...although Frank would totally fit as well. And it's especially timely b/c of this 4-post thread (started by JoJohawk) from a couple of days ago that included some thoughts about Frank's post college bball career:

Like I said, I read the hard copy of this article in this week's SI. Would love for Frank to have this kind of career trajectory in the NBA.
