    Found some new pictures of Stevie and Luis off of this chinese website. I'm chinese but I can't read it haha... but I can read that date. It was dated today and this site is pretty fast with their picture uploading as sporting events are usually posted the day of or after. It looks like they were taken during the Beijing Olympics.

    Enjoy

    Good news is Stevie looks like he's in good shape. :D

    I wonder what knee was operated on...In the 3rd picture, Steve's right knee looks much bigger than the left.

    His knee is left not really visible in that picture. His right leg is bent, his left extended out. So what you are seeing is his lower thigh just above the knee. Perspective is fun.

    wow, that was somewhat disappointing for a Rimbaud post, if left me wanting more and much more regularly, guess i don't visit the yelling forum enough

    how dare you compare francis to penny?

    Penny at his prime was hands down the decade's top 15 player, while francis is barely the top 15 player in the league in his prime year.

    Statistically Steve in his prime was a BETTER player......
    Penny's best year he was getting 22-7-4......
    While Steve was getting 22-6-7 at his peak.......


    Leading our team in Scoring, Rebounding, and Assists......


    And he was in company with Magic-GHill-and Oscar Robertson for being one of the only guys to average 15-5-5 in his first 6 years........

    If Steve would have had a prime Shaq at his side (or even a prime Yao), he would have been scary.......

    He also compares to Penny in that injuries have begun to plague his career, but hopefully he can turn that around for the sake of the Rox......

    And Penny was never a "top decade player", the guy played like 3 complete seasons.....lol

    Maybe a top 93-96 player.......

    You're right it's HUGE! It was the right knee .

    Crap that probably means no Stevie this season. Well atleast for the first half.

    The inside of his left knee has no light shining on it, so it gives it the illusion that it's smaller than the other one.

    He's being helped up. HE CAN'T STAND ON HIS OWN. I think he's paralyzed from the waist down! Sorry I couldnt help myself.
