    My dream:

    We are so loaded every game becomes like Game 5 of our last playoff series.

    i rather to have Steve playing the Franchise for the season, then to wait till a playoff, and see that incredible "clank clank" at the end.

    I heard he and your dad were playing horse, but your dad had to quit because all SF3 did was dribble. Stevie wins without shooting.

    Hahahaha...My dad didn't even get one shot in :(

    Haha I think I may have to ask for a game if I end up stopping by his house...and yes, if that happens I'll definitely have pics for y'all.

    I don't think that guy is motivated enough to make a difference next season if he's even actually on the roster. IMO, he's still the same all talent no bball IQ player who thinks he's better then what he's actually is.

    He's nothing more then salary cap expiring contract fodder, Adelman expects nothing from him, imo.

    Francis is basically washed up. A team ate $30 million to get rid of him and that was before this past season where he was essentially a non-factor. It wasn't just injury, either. He looked bad more often that not when he was on the court.

    It's not IMPOSSIBLE that Francis becomes a contributor next season but it's highly unlikely at this point. I think he's lost to much time over the past few years.

    As of now, he is our 4th string PG or 3rd/4th string SG. In other words, he may not see a minute on the court. If he does, it will be early on to see if he's got anything left. If he fails with the little chance he gets, his season will be over early.

    And this isn't even considering the possiblity of a new or recurring injury popping up before the season starts.

    I say Francis is a dead topic. If he ends up contributing in some way, great, but don't expect it to happen just because of what he USED TO BE.

    I sure hope there is enough crow to go around when Stevie gets on the court and answers the question of his ability one way or the other.

    I hope more than anyyything that you are dead wrong!

    I still love Steve & hope him nothing but the best BUT I don't doubt your judgement becuase it is the correct one. I'm just talking as a dedicated fan...

    I hope I'm wrong, too. I just don't want to be disappointed so I'm assuming what is most likely to happen. I feel bad for all those that keep believing Steve will bounce back year after year only to watch another season of his deterioration.

    Steve Nash was 32 when he won his 2nd MVP. He ain't old and he's playing for his next contract.
