Thanks for the info. Dribble not there. Shot not there. Can't finish at the basket. Sounds like its going to be hard for him to break the rotation. The way Brooks is playing he'll be lucky to sniff any playing time unless Brooks or Rafer go out with an injury. Even then I think Coach has more confidence in Head because even if he can't dribble or finish, he CAN shoot.
I think Steve has a great chance cracking into the rotation with Tracy McGrady out for 3 weeks. He will get his chance.
How did you come about this information again? Not questioning your credibility, but I can't tell if this is a joke, or the real deal. Sorry if I'm just being a rook.
I don't think he meant his "dribble" is not there but his shot OFF the dribble, which is one of his strong points. Not sure what he meant by "old athleticism". My definition would be mean that he's able to get high off the ground and get to the rim. Only time will tell.
Old Athleticism is back? I have that hard to believe, even if I'm a Francis fan... He tore 70% of one of his quads... Is that even possible to get that athletic body back?
Wow not saying your wrong or anything but how come there is no article about him saying this?? Usually it will be all over the chron but i don't see anything new about him
yea its possible he was playing hurt all this time and its been bothering him in new york so now if the pain is gone he will do even better
Steve will be find he needs to be allowed to get his bearings in practice and some extra work after practice and when he does get time he will be great
Holy crap bro!@#$% If you're right and you're not pulling a joke or prank or something like that, this is freakin amazing news!@#$ Ahhh this kid needs to be back on the court, he was even suited up for tonights game too against the Warriors! If his old athleticism is back, oh man we are going to have one sweet back court soon! I can already see Alston throwin Francis alley oops, ahhhh!!! I can't wait. I just think he deserves some time to play, soon, so he can be ready when we are in need of him in the playoffs. I miss this guys sick ups and slams and crossovers ah and most important of all THE LOVE OF THE GAME WHEN HE PLAYS!... Come on STEVE prove Adelman what the hell you are made of man and get yourself playing time!
I say let him start playing games just before the All-Star Break. Then he can get that entire weekend to see how his knee recovers. The last thing I want is to see him return to early, just to get hurt agin, like he did last season.
he will get his time to shine just like landry its just noone knows when but i have a good feeling within the next few weeks
