    The kind of surgery Steve had was possibly career ending. Best case for Steve he would be about 75% in March and can slowly compete for spot duty in the playoffs because you need players with heart and fire to win in the playoffs and we all no outside of Artest he may have the biggest heart on the team.

    I didn't even see Steve on the bench during the Nets game! Did he even go on the road trip? Doesn't look like it.

    This is a truly sad day! If Steve can't even get into the game during a blow out to save some of the other guys legs for a back to back; he won't see any time any time soon. With Barry, Rafer coming back and Brooks, Head and Wafer playing well, I don't see how Steve will ever get a chance unless he plays more like the Franchise during practice.

    I'm very disappointed in the Rockets franchise, to not include Steve in as part of the team and not even let him attend road trips. :confused:

    ^^^^

    How is it the Rockets' fault that Francis can't get back on the court? Are we suppose to wait hand over foot and coddle Francis during his rehab? He needs to show something to the coaching staff and the medical staff that he's ready.

    he didn't suit up for the game because dorsey and barry were back.

    the franchise is officially done. i guess the surgery was more major than we thought.

    I agree its over. Sad to say but yes its over I'm giving up hope. He had 2 many shots. McGrady was out Wafer and Rafer were out Its just 2 crazy. I guess that $30 million has something 2 do with it. Now for me ill believe it when i see him on the court :( :mad:

    The rockets front office not in scouting or in Morey's crew can seriously &*^$ my $%%%#@^ !

    Throwing TMAC under the bus with under cutting his needed rehab time.

    Signing franchise just to sell tickets, he makes less money, we don't have any use for him (apparently) and we cannot sign Deke as a result.

    Combined with how they handled the firing of JVG this shows they have no class at all.

    Remeber CALVIN!

    I agree it can be locked now but you know what they say. Payback is a b****. Traded once for McGrady then signed as a free agent then traded again to the team that originally drafted him but he didn't want to play there and now he is there again wow. I can't wait for the rockets to play them now. I can see him ****'n on the rockets 2 watch.. It always happens
