    How high is Steve's vertical? Jeez. He looks like his feet are 4 feet off the ground!

    I love how people are lamenting that it didn't count...

    ...in a pre-season game that doesn't count.



    Spectacular sign -- the concern with Francis is that he's getting slower but he's not getting smarter. If this is any indication, the athleticism is still there, and that counts for a lot. Now if he can figure out this system? Look out.

    From the video, it seems he only touch the opponent's shoulder. Remind my memory of T-mac in 2005 playoff, dunking over the opponent.

    That's still a foul but as Rasselas said its a preseason game so none of it counts. Enjoy it!

    That was legit!!! There was no dribbling whatsoever. Just 4 passes and Yao immediately taking it up for a shot.

    It was cool, but Francis was definitely putting his hand on the other guy's shoulder to prop himself up.

    On that note, I thought Leon had a terrible night. PUT THE WHISTLE AWAY!

    I hate how referee's are soo concerned with making calls that they take away from the flow of the game. NBA refs should play the advantage more, like soccer.

    Tmac's dunk on Bradley was far worse than that. Nub officials.
