    why do people keep saying Francis needs 2 be a 2? He's doing just fine at Point Guard. He makes the entire team better. Plus he doesn't want to be a 2. He does just fine at the PG spot. He's the best PG in the west if not in the league. (cept 4 Jason Kidd and maybe, MAYBE, Gary Payton.

    cause I think that next to a true PG (not Moochie !) ,Francis will flourish ,and will become a taller Iverson.

    because he turns the ball over at an alarming rate. His gives up the ball more than once for every two assists. He consistently makes decisions during the course of every game that costs the Rockets possessions. The bad decisions that he makes many times during the course of a game are usually not made at all by opposing point guards.

    It is only because of his incredible ability to dominate a game on an individual level that the Rockets are able to get back into most of the games. Steve and Cato seem to have began reading each others games very well which has turned into a lot of easy baskets for Cato. Unfortunately I don't see the same type of production when he directs the rest of the offense. He still tries to pass the ball across the court with defenders in the passing lanes. He still dribbles the clock down either ignoring other scoring options or just not recognizing them and getting stuck with a last second shot or a turnover. And he does not lead an efficient fast break.
