    He still hasn't gotten over his seperation from Cuttino Mobley. When Cat left him he let himself go.

    I hope he will become healthy and happy in his life. He wasn't a smart player, but he had the heart of a lion. He was a true Rocket.

    Sucks about his kidney problem. We don't know if substance abuse was part of that or not. It also doesn't really matter. I hope he gets as healthy as possible. It's got to suck to have to deal with all of that. He had health problems before his substance abuse problems even started.

    The guy tried to learn to be better and was always seeking help from other players who were more experienced. He did his best to stand by Yao, and help him. I think he was a good teammate who always gave it his all. He didn't always make the smartest plays, but he did always put his whole heart into it.

    An old coworker of mine has kidney problems and he's black and much older than Francis . He looks way better than Steve .
    The substance abuse must be really bad, he needs to turn it around .
    He loved playing for the rockets , it was obvious.

    I'm not going to make fun of him because it doesn't look like he's going to be around much longer. I hope he gets help.

    That should hurt your liver and stomach. What drugs lead to kidney disease?

    But you won't taking that drug if you can afford coke.

    This looks like a tortilla addiction.

    Well not that this means much but I saw Mobley in about six months ago and he didn't exactly look his age either...lot more grey hairs than you'd think for a guy his age.

    Franchise was doing heroin?

    How did this kidney subject get brought up again instead of just lack of sleep general alcoholism? Pure conjecture on clutchfans part?

    You asked me what drugs could cause it. Also on the list was ecstasy , inhalants and Pcp.

    Someone brought up he's on dialysis . I don't know his source.
