    Im not sure what Houston is after here - i spose he could come off the bench to provide a scoring spark but is he willing to do that. I cant see he him on the floor with Yao and T-Mac because he cant shoot. I bet Rockets fans are nervous.

    James, Bonzai, Alston, Franchise, Scola & Butler. Rockets are loading up! Yao and Tracy will have to live with 20 shots between them to keep these guys happy. Good luck Rick!

    im shocked he didnt sign witht he clippers.

    Would've been a great situation for him. Starting PG, along side his lover CM.

    Really shocking he chose Houston instead.

    on the contrary, one of our biggest issues is that we didnt have enough scorers (coming off the bench in particular). other than Stack, we have basically ZERO scoring from the bench. im not saying we needed Francis, but to say that Dallas has a lot of scorers is not quite true.

    Whichever team Francis goes to has a decreased chance of winning a championship.

    Things remain quiet for the Dallas Mavericks during free agency as guard Steve Francis on Thursday decided to return to the Houston Rockets, his agent said.

    Agent Jeff Fried said Francis agreed to a short-term deal with the Rockets over the Mavericks, Los Angeles Clippers and Miami Heat because of his comfort level with the franchise and the city.

    "The West just got tougher," Mavericks general manager Donnie Nelson said. "We've got two pretty good point guards. We just didn't have the playing time to accommodate him."

    Francis played the first five years of his career with the Rockets, including three All-Star seasons. Fried said other teams offered more money, but Francis has considered Houston his home since he entered the NBA in 1999.
