    Havent heard any more reports on his progress, which makes me believe he is healthy by now. His injury isnt that serious that he still be out anyway. So if this is the case, is he in the doghouse? Before getting injured he was seeing good PT and i know adelman is pretty desperate out there so if Francis is healthy they should be using him.

    He's stilll a better option than giving Rafer 40 plus minutes of chucking time.

    you had hope in v-mac and not stevie? come on, at least 8 out of 10 players out on the court has tendinitis.

    plus, we need him, rafer's streaky shooting and inability to finish killing us.

    Don't you think that if this was remotely true, Francis would be getting minutes?

    Francis is done.

    I'm not ready to stick a fork in him and declare him "done".

    it's not knee tendinitis, it's Adelman Doghousitis ...

    this was less than a year ago.. his elevation to the scorers table looked alright to me..

    we could've really used him today when Boozer's pompous a$$ threw Scola on the ground and acted like "that's what you get" after it, and not a single Rocket was man enough to stand up for his teammate.. everyone p&$$ied out ..

    We need a Sura on this team really bad, and the closest thing to him on the roster right now is Francis, and a fully motivated Mike James (trust me, when he is getting his minutes & respect, he won't be smiling when we are down 20)..

    Franchise's condition is "over the hill and not playing".

    He is done IMO. I wouldn't be surprise if we don't see him in an NBA game ever again. I actually think it is more about his confidence and inability to be anything other than the best player on a bad team. His athleticism is there (most of it anyway) but he looks like a completely different player than 3-4 years ago.

    All of those pessimists out there are the same dudes who said to trade Landry early on.

    I thought that was a flop? It wasn't a flop? Scola needs to stop flopping. He is the puss.

    The one where Scola fell forward and rolled? That should have been flagrant foul on Boozer.

    No it wasn't a flop, and I wish he would flop more, I wish the whole team would flop more..

    I am tired of us whining about flopping against us and getting ignored by everyone.. So what do we do? keep whining and hoping that Manu Ginobili Devin Harris would wake up one day, do a self evaluation, and decide that flopping is morally not sound and doesn't comply with their high spiritual standards..

    this will never happen, that's why everyone on this team should start flopping: Ming should scream like some one bit him the testicles whenever someone touches him on the post, Tmac should start falling down hard and flailing his arms when he is hacked on layups instead of doing his ghey "aaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy" every time ..

    damn I hate flopping, but I am tired of being on the wrong end of it..

    I had to watch the game online (College Station doesn't get UPN?) so I guess I couldn't tell. Thanks for making it clear.
