LOL, I just love it how people always try to discredit Francis' attitude when Mike James is the one we should all be worrying about. Our "cheap prostitute" gave many classic interviews when he was first traded.
No. I don't have confidence in either guy going through the season without making waves. At least one of them will flake out a bit because they overlap so much. But with both guys on the team, we have redundancy. Right now, some people have this fantasy that Adelman is Mr. Magic when it comes to meshing difficult personalities on a team. He is not and that bubble will burst during the season. Remember, at one point many here thought the same about JVG. Adelman is high-strung & prickly and will bite the media and players a few times. I can't wait for people here to flip out when that happens. While not as controlling as Pop/Riles/LB/JVG, Adelman is NOT a soft touch coach.
Bubble has burst. JVG was able to control him after Sam Mitchell could not handle him in the previous season. Adelman could not keep Rafer from going crazy and getting arrested. A_3PO care to predict the next person to go crazy.
Man, this is like the never-ending thread..... it's getting close to 1,500 replies and 115,000 views....it's just keeps going and going. I wonder if it will last till October..... I've read about 25 out of the 75 pages on this thread....I think I'll finish by next year.
yah it'll be funny if francis turns out to be a bust... a long thread dedicated to him for nothing uh
Yeah, right now it's all good but come basketball season, things will get sticky pretty fast. The keys to watch will be how effective Adelman's systems will be once the opposition responds and how well the team responds to adversity because you know that at some point, bad things will happen to them. I am totally with you on someone flaking out because there's only one basketball and I see 4 guys on the team (Bonzi, James, Francis, McGrady) who need to have the ball in their hands. It will be entertaining I'll grant you that.
Look how much the Rockets paid him?!?!?!? It wouldn't be a bust unless somehow he becomes an All-Star again and signs with San Antonio/Dallas after this year.
With all these offensive powers we got, adelman will be looking into getting the players quality shoots and not quantity. tmac no longer require to attempt 25 to 35 shots and same goes with everyone. hopefully our percentage would be in the high 50% or 60%.
I know, I wonder if this is the biggest thread in this forum's history? Any of the older members know?
No, it is not, these threads have more replies. McGrady To Houston Thread (Update: Francis will visit Orlando) ( Multi-page thread 1 2 3 4 5 ...

We got Steve Francis? YEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! Just kidding. I just wanted to keep this thread going on forever. Let's go for the biggest thread ever.
spurs and mavs fans are talking about how the dribble queen is back......dribble, dribble, dribble, clank......as they put it. Talking about any team with francis has chem. probs. and will lose and his knees are gone and that he is overrated..... Is it October, late October yet
Anybody know off the top of their head what the longest thread ever in the GARM is? I know the Yao Rehab thread was pretty long but it took a lot of time to amass that many posts. This has only been going for a couple of weeks...
