Francis was on the floor in obvious pain after the attempted dunk. I personaly started thinking oh $hit here we go again BUt when he came back I breathed sight of relief and prayed I would not get another scare like that this season.
That was the scariest thing that I've ever seen. I thought that he was going to be out for a long time.
The announcers did make it sound bad I was gonna cry Also, the fact that he didnt come back and play D made it worse like he was so much in pain he couldnt get up. I too thought it was his shoulder.
On that play, i was wondering why Steve wasnt getting back on defense. I was thinking that he was arguing with a ref or something. Then, the cameras shifted back to him and there he was, on the ground. I wish I saw what my face looked like.
Long before the fall!! You could see it in his eyes, he was out for big numbers, and that was his focus! He did just great but the team lost interest and intensity,we lost!I hope above all hopes that this first game is NO indication of the 02/03 Rockets Season!
