:lmao

Got damn he looks pathetic (for an NBA player)

Was it really that long ago that he was a bad-ass player?

LOL at your sig...

Anyways Stevie is done, he got paid now he's chillin. He'll be 33 next year and a comeback now is very unlikely.

[Dunc n Dave]

Determination in his eyes? The only thing I see in his eyes a shitload of blood vessels from all that weed he's been smokin...

Is that a beer gut on him in that one pic? Pathetic...

[IronMexican]

Live it up, Steve. Pretty obvious you are done. Go have fun and do what other players who passed way before their prime was up do.

[Double-Up]

He has no disipline that's his main problem even when he was on the court. Dribble, dribble, shoot.

Why? Dude has spent every day of the last 20 plus years working his ass off, Im sure sitting around and doing nothing is a great change of pace. You act like he's the first ex-athlete to gain some lbs.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

It's sad cause Stevie Franchise used to be one of my favorite players.

The one event you can always point to as when his career went south was when Orlando was the 5 seed in the east and the Magic decided to break up Francis and Mobley, which led to them missing the playoffs and Steve acting up because the team traded what had been his best friend his entire career. He made the all star game that year (2005) and before Mobley was traded was having a career year.

Btw I think that shirt he's wearing is just really loose in a picture taken from a bad angle.

And each and every one of them is pathetic and disgusting, just like the rest of the world's fat people, if not even more so.

[baseline bum]

Francis was trash. I wouldn't trade 2009 Finley for 2001 Francis. Francis is the dumbest point guard who got any real minutes that I have ever seen since I started following the NBA in the mid 80s.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Francis isn't a whole lot dumber than Baron Davis.

[baseline bum]

Francis isn't a whole lot dumber than Baron Davis.

That's a ridiculous comparison. Francis has never done anything approaching what Davis did in the 2002 and the 2007 playoffs. That's a whole lot more impressive than coat-tailing Yao and the Chinese vote to a couple of all-star games.

Dude! Where's my car!

Seriously Franchise is stoned out of his gourd in these pics. lol

He's been outta the league for one year, dude. I can understand looking like that after 4 or 5 years out fo the league, but 1 SEASON??? It's not like he struggled with his weight while he was in the league.

DRob has been out of the league now for 6 years and Franics looks like he's put more weight on than David has...
