    Hate to be "that guy" but I started this thread under the name "Francis?" when the rumor just came out and it got like 5 responses...

    Guess I'm just not argentinian enough...
    The crazy thing is that most of the posts were negative in the original thread! Guess that shows how desperate fans have gotten in one week's time.

    He could very easily start with the Lakers. I'm sure he would be interested in that.

    Yes over Smush. How good do you guys think Smush is?? He is improving though. But he should not be an NBA starter at this point in his career. He would be a very good backup.

    YES. Take a chance on him please, I want to be excited to see my Spurs play and not assume each game is a crushing loss due to lack of motivation.

    Oh, . I had no intention of starting a Parker-Ginobili riot.

    He (Francis) was perfectly willing to defer when he was coached by Larry Brown, so I don't think Pop would have much trouble with him. He may be a jackass, but when he's put in a situation where he is not and will never be "the man", he has shown a remarkable ability to adapt.
    Could you remind me when Steve Francis played under Larry Brown.? I believe you might be refering to Iverson, but I may be miscorrected.

    I didn't get past this post here. You have got to be kidding me. This is the same guy that stretched out his injuries because he can't stand playing second fiddle to Starbury.

    I donīt blame him

    If he's bought out and can deal with his tendinitis, he's > Beno -- but that's faint praise.
    even with the injury hes better than beno

    Stevie Franchise basically killed his own career by being a malcontent. He's done it everywhere he's been. My answer is no I wouldn't want him on the Spurs.

    As a backup for the vet min? Bring him in... he is better than Beno (which isn't too hard to do) If it does not work... waive him...

    Francis behind Parker would be sweet, but Francis wants to be the #1 guy, or at least a starter.

    Yes. He doesn't directly address everything that ails the Spurs (rebounding, big defensive 3) but he can put up points, which wouldn't be a bad thing for this team off the bench.

    He wants to be the man though, that's a problem.

    Francis hasnt really done much of anything the past few years. He is a very ball dominant player and I dont think he would work well under Pop's system. Francis was crushed when Rudy T left the Rockets and was replaced by Van Gundy. JVG couldnt stand him and was eager to ship him out. Francis' game isnt geared towards a structured system like Avery, Pop and Larry Brown as we have already seen.
