Rockets' Francis Will Miss Tuesday's Game vs. Kings .c The Associated Press HOUSTON (Nov. 26) -- Rockets star point guard Steve Francis will miss Tuesday night's game against Sacramento after aggravating a sore left foot.

Go Moochie! BTW, we are already .500. Losing tomorrow will give us a 7-8 record. But dammit! We'll win! 8-7!!!!!!
As a KIngs fan who just watched my team lose to the GRIZZLIES!@#? when they had Wright, Dickerson and Swift in street clothes, I think Rudy may have made a very shrewd move to not play HIS starters tonight a-la the Griz. Since the last time our teams played the Kings were the ones who were supposed to be at a disadvantage, yet won, it only figures to go the other way tonight. Maybe Rudy is trying to "overconfidence" the Kings to death since it worked for the Griz.
