I sware i read an article (maybe in Sports Illustrated) about him recently, like within the last year. I remember him saying that he wouldn't come back to the league unless "the money is right". He said something to the tune of "I don't want to assist young players cause I can still play at a high level."

Basically the article came off as "I wanna get paid and I'm not sitting the bench."

Pretty funny.

Francis was a superstar? News to me.

Of course he fizzled out. He's far too stupid to survive in the NBA. Before his athleticism would bail him out. Not anymore.

There's a reason cerebral (at least in the basketball sense) guys like Nash and Stockton and Payton and Kidd survived to an old age in the NBA, and morons like Francis didn't.

Me too. He couldn't even crack a 3rd all team NBA in his career.

He may have not been a true superstar but he was one of the more hyped/followed players in the league. He was a superstar to a casual fan.

**HKF** · 10-10-2010, 04:02 AM

Cuttino must have dumped him.

**Ron** · 10-10-2010, 10:45 AM

Stevie Franchise lost me out of the gate when he refused to play for Vancouver. I couldn't care less about him or his sorry career.

Futurama_Fanatic · 10-10-2010, 11:28 AM

i read he has some business' and he's trying to get a rap label off the ground.

**Dre** · 02-03-2012, 10:46 PM

I hear around the area he's not doing too well. How this isn't in the public eye is surprising, but probably for the best. Hopefully he can get himself together.

Stuff I heard kind of explains in part why he couldn't even get on a roster at the end

**Dre** · 02-08-2012, 06:48 PM

Wow I hadn't seen what he looked like...yeah he looks terrible..he's only 34

**Diable** · 02-08-2012, 08:05 PM

I thought that guy hung himself at the prison library up at the Cut.

**Knick Killer** · 02-08-2012, 08:24 PM

Wow. Thats all i gotta say

.....Yet you're a huge Kobe fan.

That doesn't make much sense Ron.
