    Say what you will about Francis, but this kid is becoming something special. Everyone needs to appreciate what we are watching.

    I totally agree. He is playing at a different level than everyone else on the floor.

    Couldn't agree with you more.

    I was watching ESPN's Fast Break Tuesday show earlier, and they were actually giving Stevie propos. the only negative thing they said was true, and that was that he needed frontcourt help.

    Eddie is also looking like the defender we all thought he would be, great block on Sabonis.

    Can't trade him. Well, unless it's for KG, Kobe, Shaq, T-mac, or Payton and a time machine.

    He is getting scary good. I wonder if he could have played like this last year if it weren't for the headaches?

    It is good to see Francis growing as a player. Guys, this player really wants to win. He wanted the ball in the clutch and he made it. It won't be the last time.

    My heart stopped when he was knocked to the floor on that dunk attempt. If he can continue to elevate his own game and keep his teammates involved the sky is the limit for S. Francis and this team.

    Steve is amazing. I don't get how anyone can hate him because "he shoots too much". He shoot 50% again and led our comeback!

    It is a good thing we have a few days more off, so he can recover from that fall.

    Looked like all over. He'll probably have a couple of bruises. Wallace fouled him hard on a dunk attempt.

    Francis rocked tonight! That alley-oop from Mobley was definately one of their best! We are seeing a Hall of Fame player in the making!

    All I can say is unreal! He completely took over the game at the most crucial time. I loved the way Portland came at him when he was basically just playing like a mortal and then completely took over the game after the flagrant foul. That is the type of thing the great ones always do. He was just amazing.

    He was definitely a LEADER tonight. When it came down to crunch time he put the team on his shoulders just like Dream used to do. It was a beautiful thing to watch.

    How could anyone diss the Franchise? He is the best of the best. He should have made the doubters believers by now. :)

    I'm scared of Steve Francis. That guy is so good it hurts.

    This hasn't been mentioned yet, but to prove Stevie was amazing tonight, he scored 16 of our last 18 points...unreal...
