    actually Francis will have the advantage offensevly because he quicker than most sgs. ANd height isnt a major problem. Hes 6' 3" and most sgs are 6' 5" so its not much of a difference. And he hasnt been doin it for one game. In the begening of the season he acted as a sg and averaged 26 points a game. Mobley never can average that many points.

    YOU need to relax. You also need to understand that even IF griffin is better than a lot of power forwards out there, he cancels it by being a softy and standing outside the 3 pt line waiting to jack up shots.

    He rarely does anything to help the rockets out, other than occasionally blocking a shot here or there.

    I said he isn't quick enough for a PG. Learn how to read. You can't look at one part of the season where someone has a hot streak and use that to determine how they will play. Over the course of the season Francis averaged 21, his highest was 21.65 last year. Cat averaged 21.7 last year which Francis has never done. BTW, in February 2002 Cat averaged 26.7, so I guess you were wrong about that too.

    Cat came off the bench for a season, Francis has been the number one option since he got here. Of course he has a better scoring average. :rolleyes: Steve has a better FG% because Cat shoots more three pointers. On 2pfg%, Cat is better this year, and for his career.

    This season:
    Steve
    PPG 21.0
    Cat
    PPG 17.5

    17.5>21.0:confused:

    Is English not your first language or something? I don't want to bash you if you are really having trouble understanding what I am typing, but I never said Cat had a higher scoring average this season than Francis.

    this post needs to be read again...and to say that Mobley is the weakest link because he has the most trade value is pretty stupid. i've always thought a 'weakest link' is a person that has the greatest chance of bringing down a team....

    I defied the Weakest Link as the Person most likely will go because of certain scenarios and trade value.. One scenario is the Rockets getting a true point.I put Mobley as the weakest link if in fact the Rockets move Francis to the 2 guard and because I think Mobley has the higher trade value than anyone besides Yao and Francis; and they are not going anywhere.That's my view, you're more than welcome to yours.
