    We have Francis for what? 2 more years?

    Then he can betray us all and move to Toronto too. Or even better, he can move to Washington and become the lackey of the evil one.

    I think it is time to just draft players from Houston who are young to long term contracts for big money and guaranteed minutes. Its the only way to be sure.

    But at least we'll still have Cato and Maloney's ghost. YaaaY!!

    It's things like this that make me pray that basketball doesn't end up like baseball. It would be difficult for it to turn out that way since the NBA at least had the brains to institute a salary cap, but it still makes me scared.

    We have him until 2003 crisco,but he will still leave,not because it is close to home but because in DC he can use his original #23 just like his role model and favorite player.

    Actually, 4 more years. (5 year total minimum, assuming team still wants him)

    We have the option on the 4th year (which we'll take) then he's a restricted free agent, and we can match any offer. It's quite possible at that point, someone will offer him a maxed out deal, and we'd match it, keeping him 7 more years after that. [​IMG]

    Trade or bench Kenny Thomas.

    No kidding. Mass hysteria thread, man. Don't ruin it for the rest of us with sensible thinking!!! [​IMG]

    I thought the baseball analogy would aid in causing a BBS riot.
