http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/sports/bk/bkn/855346 Feigen sounds like he actually thinks the tech on Francis was the correct call, and he makes no gripes about it. ------------------
Despite everything, the Rockets defense was fairly pitiful. Hell, it was utterly atrocious. Losing Francis shouldn't really hurt on the defensive end, seeing as he isn't much of a defender. Give credit to the Kings, but the Rockets looked asleep on D. I hope Rudy does some serious tape reviewing. The Rockets had been playing pretty good D up to this point, but good god! 125 points? So many layups... Still, no matter. This game was a cheat. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.
The Kings put together a first quarter like I have never seen before. Cato was horrible at playing help D. It just seems like Feigan is siding with the refs on this one. It seems like he agrees with the tech call. ------------------

i went straight to the recap in the chronicle just to see what kind of language would be used . . . nothing!! Feigen is an ASS. ------------------
Feigan should have mentioned the call. Was surprised myself that little mention of Francis ejection was made. Also went to the AP story on the game, just said Francis was "hot under the collar." Well, I would be too, as that call was a bunch of CRAP!! Anyway, Feigan was correct to point out Cato's pathetic defense. The rox were much better off with Carlos in there. Aleast he was active and tried. Here's what the Chron said bout Cato's D, and I'm in total agreement. "Kelvin Cato was as active defensively as a totem pole, almost escorting the Kings through the lane as if the basket were their private throne."--nuff said ------------------
