who woulda thought ... actual updates!? he does look a lot trimmer in the face than i remember him ever being ... can't wait for training camp to start ... much less the season.
Yeh he looks slimmer in the face/neck area and looks like the good 'ol Stevie Franchise again. Hope he can still play like it.
So much for the Stevie is 250 pounds/ out of shape rumors. You don't get in shape by not working out, partying, sitting around playing video games and eating junk. To all the haters that said Steve is already paid and is enjoying his millions of dollars and doesn't care about ball anymore... get ready to eat some serious crow. He looks like he's been dedicated for the last couple of months at the very least judging by how thin his face has gotten. DEDICATION!
Wow, francis does look thin....I think it time to start dumpink on people again....If steve returns to 75% of what he was, this team would be very beastly
My bro saw Stevie running at Memorial park last week. He was running backwards and looked in great shape. Said Kelvin Kato was out there with him. My bro said hi to them and goodluck in the season (he was wearing a Rockets shirt) and Stevie said 'nice shirt". Hopefully he can come back to at least 60-70% of what he used to be, then we will be a very dangerous team!
What else did he say about Cato? He's 33 but might be an interesting backup to Ming. Maybe he can make a comeback as well?
Cato still owes the Rockets organization millions of dollars for unfufilled promise. I believe he's contractually obligated to ball for free for 2 years.
or.. maybe francis isnt injured anymore like he was last year and is finally able to work out like crazy... maybe eh? i guess we will never know...
Either works for me.....if he comes in and is a contributor the Rockets are better off.... Which is all good. DD
I don't know why people can't except the fact that the tendanitis issue was real, he was accused of quitting in NY when Isiah wouldn't play him and he would use that as an excuse, but it seems that the injury was real and it has been for a few years.
yeah and if his tendanitits werent real and he was faking it all the time, i guess the doctors who performed the surgery on him "faked" the whole procedure with "toys'r'us play doctor scalpel sets" just like how those scientists performed those "operations" on the aliens at roswell... wow stevie... ure the man!
