    Mark Berman on Fox Sports said that the Rockets are very close to completing the Mobley deal. There was a sound byte from his agent, Bill Strickland, who said the deal is close but did not give any numbers. They also talked to Steve Francis, and he was very happy saying that Cuttino made the right decision since he would not be able to shine as much in Toronto with Vince Carter taking the glory.

    The impression I got from watching that is that something offical should be done within the next day or two.

    Didn't he also say Croshere was close to signing with the Bulls?

    How is Cuttino going to shine when Steve Francis takes the glory here? If Francis continues his progress I look for him to leave Mobley and the rest of the team in the dust as far as superstardom is concerned.

    Simple Old school! Stevie wants to be the premier PG in the league... so he needs to dish out double digit assists. So if Francis dishes out 10 assists... Cat could have 20 pts [​IMG] (jk)

    Don't you worry about about Cat getting his shots...he took more than anyone last season.
