    Is it true that it looks like Steve Francis has got a little chunky? Because someone said when when he was at the comets game it looked he gained some weight as in got more fat.

    Yes, Francis is now a bloated Jerry Krouse look-alike. He's moving to PF next year, and his new goal is to reach a verticle of 2 inches. Get ready NBA, a new breed of obese athlete is entering the league.

    I wish I could come up with a decent signature, but I can't. You'll just have to live with this one.

    How's this for a line-up:

    C -- Oliver Miller
    PF -- Stanley Roberts
    SF -- Charles Barkley
    SG -- Steve Francis
    PG -- El-Alamin (or whatever his name is)

    John Williams at SF. Chuck is positively angular compared to Williams.

    I saw the interview and I didn't think he looked unusual. Looked like Steve Francis to me.

    Well, I got his autograph in Austin, and I can tell you, he's easily 310, maybe 315. As a matter of fact, he was eating while he was signing and got mustard all over my pic. His post up game should improve though.

    Larry Roberts... yeah... that's the ticket.

    Francis is the best 315 pound guard in the league, no doubt.

    Does this clear things up? (don't make me repeat myself)

    GIVEN:
    Charles Barkley = 6'-4" & 275 lbs.

    (rewrite equation)
    6'-4" & 275 lbs. = Charles Barkley

    (subtract 1")
    6'-3" & 275 lbs. = Charles Barkley - 1"

    (if the new Steve Francis weighs 275 lbs. we can substitute [6'-3" & 275 lbs] for Steve Francis)
    Steve Francis = Charles Barkley - 1"

    (substitute slang term for Barkley)
    Steve Francis = Fatso - 1"

    (based on the equation V=cross sectional area * height we can assume the following is true)
    Steve Francis = Huge

    You're supposed to start your lineup with, "Imagine this". It's tradition.

    Also imagine how well Francis will be able to post up now that he is a tad chunkier! [​IMG]... Baby Chuck?
