    Did anyone see Francis and Mobley sitting courtside. I thought it was cool seeing those two cheer for the rockets even though they don't play here anymore.

    Marcus Camby was also in the house.

    If true, I can see this is why people like Francis and Mobley. If the Rockets trade Tracy McGrady against his will, do you think he'll come back and cheer on the Rockets?

    Pretty sure neither of them cheered the whole game, and both left well before the game was over.

    I was at the viewing party and they were showing rocket highlights of past rocket players and they totally left steve francis out. I was kind of upset. When they showed t-mac the crowd boo'ed. Although bone-headed Francis worked his ass off for us and was at one time our franchise player.

    I'm glad those two guys get to hang out with each other again. No homo.

    Guess the Francis-Mobley manlove thing just won't die. Maybe they will get married. It's cool that they are best buds, but it's funny to think about what would happen if they were more than just friends.

    I hope Mobley is doing well with this medical problem.

    Does anyone know if steve is done and retired or is he going to try for another comeback?

    It left me befuddled for a good 5 minutes going "where was steve francis? did i miss it? I don't think i did. Where was steve francis?" I was honestly upset. They just skipped from Barkley to Yao.

    Well at least they root for Houston. Franchise I bet, has a special place in his heart for Portalnd though.

    typical lower bowl folks

    not wearing red, even the rockets t shirts giving out, mobley not even paying attention to the game looking at something else and francis on his phone probably just finished twittering.

    Man I really feel for Steve. He's like the Dante Hicks to our Caitlin Bree.
