Do people not like Francis here? Geez!! The guy is the heart and soul of our team and everyone is hatin on him. He can't be the perfect bball player you know. Its only his 4th year. Give the guy a break. He is doing everything possible for us to win games and all you guys can say he sucks and we should trade him. Do i expect more from him. Ofcourse. But I am very appreciative what he has done for us this season. PS. I think we should somehow try to get Hedo Turgolu from Sacramento. Dude plays no minutes for them anymore. Maybe a 3 team trade that will bring him to Houston.
Francis is still the man. I like Mobley, Griffin all of the Rockets, but I'd trade just about anyone if offered the right players. I think Francis is phenomenal, but he like the rest of the Rockets can improve his game. His talent is among the best in the game, but he can be a much better player and at times it seems like he's not progressing. I'm happy with his play overall, but I'd like to move him to SG and bring in more of a traditional PG.
On a semi-related topic: Whats the deal with Francis? Did he leave the game in the third (nba.com)?? How serious is the injury?
