Re: Francis is considering us
I'd take Francis in a heartbeat because he'd easily bring the team a guy that can be an elite playmaker in the NBA. Given the opportunity, Francis would give Houston three great scoring threats alongside Yao and McGrady. I can't imagine seeing a lot of scoring droughts with those three guys on the floor together. Plus, a backcourt of Francis and James could keep the offense rolling even with McGrady catching breathers on the bench.
And Francis is far from being a washed-up all-star. The man didn't have half a chance in New York under Isiah Thomas, who chose Marbury and Nate Robinson as his PGs before Francis ever stepped into a Knicks uniform.
Please don't tell me this lineup wouldn't be very good:
PG: Francis, James, Brooks
SG: McGrady, Wells
SF: Battier, Snyder
PF: Scola, Hayes
C: Yao, Deke, Butler
