    My favorite Francis moment was the circus layup he had when he bumped into Shaq that somehow went in. (Game 3 of the playoffs)

    Same here. And my favorite McGrady moment is when he becomes a Rocket.

    I'm gonna miss both Steve and Cat. My best moments came in Steve's second year, with Hakeem still there, and we made that run to 45 wins when no one expected. Steve, Cat, Mo, and Dream really played great together for about 25 games, and it was awesome..........:(

    Steve and Cat were true Rockets. Cat took less money here, and Steve tried to change his game completely. True Rockets. Damn I will miss them :( :(

    Thanks R2K.

    Reliving that was awesome.

    Bill Worrell: "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!!!! Oh what a shot!!!"

    gives me goosebumps

    The best part came at the end of the game when Steve stiffed an interview request from Jim Grey.

    His heart... nobody could ever deny it.

    Even now... it would be easier for him to go somewhere else, fit into the system better, and have a chane to be THE man again... yet he wants to stay here and build something.

    that's heart... I'll welcome him back if the trade doesn't go thru.

    My favorite SF moment was when he came back from his migraines to give the Rockets a chance to win. Without him, the Rockets couldn't do anything at the time.

    Steve Francis has been a tremendous player and person here.

    He played his heart out and took the leadership after Dream left.

    He supported his team mates.

    He made a huge adjustment for Coach Van Gundy

    Steve will be a great player if he is able to cut way down on his unforced turnovers.

    He made Yao feel a part and a Rocket.

    Thanks, Steve

    Love Mobley also.

    Just can't pass up this deal and we need to move Steve, he may not able to improve his point guard play and it will hinder us from
    improving in the West Conf.

    I am estatic about the trade, but I give Steve all his due for
    his heart and attitude.

    Coming alive in the Denver game to help us "clinch"...

    One particular game winner: last year's Miami game where he hit the 3 to win at the buzzer off the Yao pick.

    His undeniable loyalty: to Cuttino, to the Rockets, and, eventually, to Yao.

    Damn, we'll miss you Steve. The reason we were so hard on you was because we expected so much. But most of us still loved you because you were a Rocket with heart.

    I thought is was really ballzy of Steve to elbow Amare Stoudemire for excessively screaming after a monster jam over Yao.
    Steve never backed down from a challenge and had a ton of heart, but...

    Wow, who would've thought this moment would come, especially after this thread: http://bbs.clutchcity.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=76814
    Hmmm. It's funny how Juugie GUARANTEES that we could never get T-mac.
