    Man, I almost don't want this trade to go down so we can keep this excitement going through the offseason.

    I just read on a message board that ESPN news reported that the deal will get done after the expansion draft. They also said that Francis has no say in it. :D ...........

    I hope we don't critisize Steve. Put yourself in his shoes and
    you would be pissed also. Who want to play for Orlando?

    Confession: I hit it like every 15 seconds, especially after the "changes in last few minutes" note. And damn, I am still at work.

    Of course the pieces of **** at ESPN don't start with REAL and HOT news, but instead have a lead story for hypothetical Shaq trades. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Once again shows ESPN's 'hatred' or whatever you want to call it for Houston sports.

    I'm sure Cato was left unprotected in the expansion draft, and as a result, the trade is being held up. If the Bobcats took him, they'd be nuts. Juwan Howard may also be left unprotected by the Magic, as could Grant Hill. Including Hill in this trade would make it even more lopsided towards Orlando's favor, so if I were to bet, I'd say we're waiting on Cato and Howard to pass through the draft unselected.

    Difference is that TMac gave them warning. Francis is just screwing it up when something is going to happen. Like when Vancover picks him and then BAM he cries "i don't want to play in Canada" and pouts his turnover prone a$$ in his chair...........geez what a baby!

    The boy just isn't all that mature.....he doesn't know how to be business. (yeah, like he is the ONLY one that gets traded)
