    Olajuwon... sounds vaguely familiar... oh yeah, Olajuwon, he's that fine lad from Nigeria right?

    Didn't he go to the University of Nigeria? And I'm almost certain that he was the goalie for their water polo team. ;)

    Marbury is better than Francis because he's the leader of his team and has the "leader's confidence"? Sorry, I'm not buying it.

    That's like saying Marbury will be worse than Francis the second he is traded to a team with a bigger star, like the Spurs.

    If Francis' confidence hinges on whether he's the man of a team or not, we are in deep trouble.

    All star game should have a one on one challenge that fans can vote to see. That would be aewsome. But I think Francis is better than Marbury one on one. Marbury has the edge as far as team guard for right now only cuz Francis is starting to buy into Gundy's system.

    Forget it. Francis is playing great team ball right now. The Suns...are sucking right now. And yes, a lot of it rests on Steph's shoulders.

    This year, Franchise has had more turnovers, but honestly, I don't see many areas where Marbury has the edge. I think that Steve has better character and that he tries harder than Marbury to play a team game, he runs so well with Mobes too. I feel that with Yao's arrival that Franchise has been trying to make Yao the focal point, just an adjustment, if you guys saw the Orlando game, that game was absolutely flawless by Franchise and Mobes, I think that we can expect to see more of that by Francis and then people will start to realize the kind of talent that he really has.

    Why are the Suns sucking? They are 3-3 and lost 2 of the games to the top 2 teams in the league on a game winning shot.

    Yes they suck.
