Seems like Steve Francis has been lost since Yao Ming
became the offensive "go to" guy. Isolation seems to
be where Francis excels and that's not the way the
offense plays much anymore.

Is it time for the Rockets to start looking at different
point guard possibilities? I don't see getting rid of
Yao as he has so much upside potential. I just don't
see the Rockets making it(far) in the playoffs if they
continue to mishandle the bar and spend most of their
time upset at the refs. Steve made the team look bad
last night against the Kings. Smacking the ref in the
face was poor sportsmanship.

You hate to lose a talent like Francis but he seems to
be harming the team more than helping them this season.
Feel free to tell me I'm insane. I'm not up on stats but
I watch almost every game on League Pass.

There has been talk about Iverson for Francis since Iverson has worn
out his welcome in Philly. Problem is you kinda get the same kind of
player but I think Iverson has more heart than Stevie. He also says he
can share the scoring load, he just never had a good player with him
in Philly. we will see what the offseason brings. Maybe a sign and
trade for Kobe.

If only the Rockets could get Jason Kidd to play with Yao's offense........

Boy, that would be great-Kidd would defnitely make Yao and the Rockets a
viable contender....JP
