    We lucked out and traded his stupidly large contract and received what? Another stupidly large contract in Tracy. Tracy has been a joke, we haven't gone anywhere with him, he wasted more of Yao years and now he's sitting like a little B**ch. Has he ever put in more than 70 games in a Rocket season? Tracy wore out his act in Orlando, Toronto and now Houston. So where does that put the Roxs?, in a bad situation.

    Stevie is loved here in Houston, much more so than Tracy. It's kind of like the Von Wafer, Tracy scenario. One plays with fire and passion while the other just can't find the motivation to play.

    Nice work but you forgot to work in SheMac!!! :D

    Can't say that I disagree with you but we've gotten more out of Tmac over the past few years than we would have from Sf3 and we also got rid of Catos horrible contract... And the next time Tmac is bought out will be the first time not the second.

    Here's what it comes down to: Chant "Bring Back Stevie" every time Rafer touches the ball. The chant of all time. Might not bring him back, but at least it might help unload Rafer.

    We probably will and SHOULD bring back Steve so he can get a ring with us this year.

    I wish him the best, but it should be a cold day in hades that he ever wears a Houston uniform again.

    Bring back Steve as the mascot to do dunks off the trampoline. He was almost as fat as Clutch last year, so there you go.

    I have no ill feelings toward Francis. I think it is a shame that his career turns south so early.

    I've said it before. The nickname "Franchise" was the worst thing that happened to his career. He would have been a fantastic role player if he would accept the role. He would be great being the second or third guy on a good team, sort of a rich man's Bobby Jackson.
