    Just because TMac doesn't jump around and scream all the time doesn't mean he lacks competitive fire. Hell, someone who can score 13pts in 35sec for an improbable win against the best team in the league has a little competitive fire, I think.

    He will cheer on Steve at the begining, but not during the game.

    The reason for this is because unlike TMAC etc, he never requested a trade. And badly didn't want to leave the city and organization. For that, and the years he spent and what he gave to the city of Houston I will cheer for him. Welcome home Steve, now suck in the game please.

    Go Rockets.

    Thank you.

    Francis would have spent those first 24 seconds dribbling out the clock.

    Have you noticed how few times the shot clock has run down on this team this season? I have.

    *lol* Come on. Seriously, Faos. You really have noticed how few times the shot clock has run down on the team this season? Or are you just pretending to in order to criticize Francis yet again?

    Hey, but maybe you really have noticed, Faos...in which case, that takes A LOT of dissecting the Rockets play on your part.

    As for the game...For some reason I don't think the Francis will really cheer Steve. Now I don't think the'll boo either, I just think it'll be somewhat of a subdued applause, nothing over-the-top either way. The Rockets will win in what should be a close game.

    HOU: 104
    ORL: 99


    Box Score for the main characters...Francis plays well, but T-Mac plays better:

    McGrady: 31 points, eight rebounds, seven assists

    Francis: 24 points, six rebounds, seven assists

    I'll be at the game and definitely cheer for Stevie during the intro. I was hoping Cuttino was gonna be there so I could do the same for him but oh well. Rockets will win and win big. Blow OUT!


    GO ROCKETS!!

    Let's show Orlando we have more class and cheer for Francis. He did a lot for this organization. But all that aside...I'd still take T-Mac over Stevie any day. I've been visiting the Orlando Sentinel quite often and all they write about is bashing T-Mac. It's like the Magic don't even exist because their focus is all on Tracy. It's quite sad actually. I wrote their sports writers and confronted them about this. I told them to quit calling him Me-Mac, T-Slack, Tracy McQuitter and what ever other gay names they have. We only have one name for Tracy McGrady here in Houston and that's...TEAM-ac

    Technically it's a national tv broadcasting because Jan 24 is the half season free preview date of NBA league pass. So anyone has Dish, Directv and Cable can watch it. But not many know about it.

    Well, if it truly is on free preview, I think you need digital cable or satelite to watch it. The NBA channels are usually in the mid-100s.
