Francis is a headache I'd rather avoid. I'd rather get dependable veterans with good character or young players with upside.

I am pretty sure they were saying those same exact things about Mr. Marbury before he came here and while he was here. I am not a Francis fan in any way, shape or form, but he could be able to help out.

Who cares what "they" were saying. We can reach our own evaluations of the players. Marbury's had some difficulties with teammates but not on even close to the same level of Francis. Marbury doesn't sit out of games because he has "headaches" and doesn't get suspended for character issues

who the heck do you think we can get better than steve francis for an ending contract? you think jalen rose is better than steve--no f way. which player do you think we can get?
I've already listed players I'd target. You've already made it clear in those threads that you don't like those deals. What's the point in restating everything?


Im sorry thats right, you want KG Brand or Pierce right]California dreaming
Not even close


Im sorry, do you have some type of fear telling the forum just exactly you think we can get with an expiring contract?Im certainly not saying Steve Francis is the end all of our problems, but for an ending contract, you will not do much better than that. The players discussed coming here have been earl watson and theo ratliff--do you actually prefer these players to steve francis? in pure talent, wed be better which would evantually start to work on the W and Ls. This is a league of stars.

If you dont have the cahones to tell us who you want, who we can actually have a reasonable chance to acquire, sans the elton brand KG Paul Pierce BS--Id like to know---or is it that you are just trying to criticize for the heck of it?

yes, it seems so. some posters here just criticise others' ideas while they don't offer any specific moves to make the team better. we all have different ideas about the team and how it should go forward (and we don't have to agree on that), but at least offer something concrete.

yeah, its not to hard to say i want an ending contract for that KG Brand deal, oh and we''ll throw in ariza and second

on the other hand it seems like he thinks we have written down his ending contract suggestions on paper from 4 months ago and keep them handy next to the computer. hey after 9k posts in 2 years, with 99.5% of those wasting UK bandwidth,i just forget

look how this guy has turned it on since he had that pow-wow with his management team you CAN play Francis with Marbury Francis really is a two guard i dont want earl watson

or theo ratliff--why do we want the sht players? Steve Francis is the BEST player in that trade BY far--look what this guy has been playing

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/3325

give orlando the ending contract and that SA pick if ned be, thats a really good deal. You are getting a real superstar level player for nothing

didnt our thai boxing friend mentioned post a franchise thread only to be ridiculed.....now you are having second thoughts

Honestly, this is too entertaining for me to re-post some trade ideas. If you keep begging for another few posts, I'll give in, though!

give them ender Ariza + nate--they need a PG for steve francis. Id rather keep the pick and go in a different direction with longer players. We may need a back up 4+5 in the draft if we complete this deal.

you think ORL would want to pair up 2 5'9" G's on their perimeter? i don't see it personally.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
