His lips are wrapped around a crack pipe (no homo).

The pic you posted right, he looks sad cause he doesn't have his crack.

If it is photoshopped, someone did a damn good job because the shadow is in place. I doubt that's a photoshop, I don't think that's Steve Francis though, it doesn't look completely like him.

Old pic. It's photoshopped, look at the hand it has a finger bending and has the same finger going behind his nose.

Shadow's are pretty easy to make I heard. Besides look at his left hand.

I'm a photoshop expert and this is not photoshopped. Look at his middle finger and thumb, those two fingers are holding the pipe, not the other ones. I doubt it's Francis though.

Look closely. The tip that's protruding from the top of the cylinder isn't his thumb, that's his middle finger. The thumb is holding the bottom. Most of you just have a poor sense of perception.

Dude. FIrst off, look at the length of his index finger. That in itself should tell you that this is photoshopped. Second of all, you can't even see the thumbnail, nor can you see the joint of his middle finger. Try getting your hand into that kind of position:oldlol:

Well then I hate to tell you this bub, but you might want to return that "photoshop degree"

There are 6 fingers in that picture....."I mean if you believe that's his middle finger and thumb holding the pipe, there might be 7 fingers in that picture (BTW, That "thumb" is either photoshoped" or it is a broken thumb with no nail")

First of all if that's true, the index finger is WAY TOO LONG........but in reality it's "two fingers", because if you look closely the lines on the finger/hand below the pipe don't match the lines on the finger above the pipe,

http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee214/ImSooooHungry/SmokingCrack4.jpg


but hey.....you're the "photoshop expert".

The only way this would be possible is if the guy in the picture had a...

Yeah to the naked eye of a person that thinks humans have a index finger that's one inch longer that any other finger (newflash.....the middle finger is the longest finger on a Human hand and if his index finger is that long, you'd most definitely would see more of the middle finger)

You're supposed to be the "photoshop expert" so for you to just say "there's 5 fingers. Count them", is laughable. :oldlol:

Also as a guy that comes from a family who has some crackheads/methheads in it (not proud of it, but hey..I live in Houston and what family from a major city doesn't have drug addicts in it?)......those type of people would go to their grave for those type of drugs (which is the reason why it's always the crackhead who could clear a mile after being stopped before the cop catches him.....but yet they always still have the drug on them) so they're not going to hold the damn pipe upside down (not to mention hold on to their pipe with more than two fingers)......and take any small chance of losing a crumb of crack.

Your observations are full of stupidity.

Long index finger = 1
Middle and thumb holding the cylinder = 2
Ring and pinky = 2

1+2+2 = 5

Not that difficult.

Furthermore, the pipe isn't "upside down". It's a vaporizer pipe, retard. It's not a conventional pipe. The flame is meant to heat the chamber, which vaporizes the crystals that result in fumes that you inhale.

TMac&Luther
09-03-2008, 01:55 AM
Here you go everybody.....this will prove this a bullshit picture and the "photoshop expert" doesn't know what the **** he's talking about.

Take your hand right now and reenact the handle (finger placement) that this guy had in this picture.......remember your index finger has to be in a unnatural position of being on the outside of the thumb........now look at your hand from the side, like in this picture....how much of the hand do you see next to your index finger?......absolutely nothing....yep, what a "photoshop expert" he is.

So let me get this straight...you're the self-proclaimed "photoshop expert" and you're here to tell us, we are to believe exactly what we see in a photo? You're a joke right....I mean this is a joke..right. :roll:

again like I said above......do the same handle the guy did above and compare the amount of hand that is showing outside of the index finger (as well as how uncomfortable that position is) and realize how stupid you look, MR. "Photoshop expert".

His damn hand looks like it was ran over by a car while he was holding a pipe.

Actually any dumbass who called himself a "photoshop expert" could easily pick out the shit that is wrong with this photo (like I did...not to mention that the guy who is taking a hit off the pipe isn't even using a lighter, he isn't even looking at his flame, and no crackhead "especially a NBA baller" is going to let their picture be taken while hitting a pipe.....crackheads are too paranoid)...........and the people that would "spend so much time and effort to be that meticulously perfect (which they weren't) for a photograph" are the "photoshop experts", which isn't you.

You don't need a lighter, especially when you're holding the flame for that long. It's not safe to hold a flame on a standard lighter for a long time. Also, you don't look at the flame when you're lighting a vaporizer, you look at the chamber for the formation of mist.

Let me get this straight......"you sholdn't hold a flame for that long" :roll: Do you know how ****ing retarded that sounds?....(yep we're a bunch of crackheads that happen to know or give a ratz ass that it isn't right to hold a flame down on a bic lighter.......god has saved me, I will now use a P.O.S "paper thingy to light my holy crack...praise the lord.)....instead I'll let some peice of paper burn the **** out of me.

Thats not how you smoke meth either. For meth you need a pipe that doesn't have a hole in the bottom so you can liquify and eventually vaporize the sh*t by putting a flame on the bottom and rolling the pipe between your fingers at the same time. Don't ask how I know.

That piece looks like a small upside down bubbler to me.

where was this found anywayI actually originated this on MPC-forums.com

it's not a photoshop, and it's not Steve Francis (we think).


A poster named Binger0 posted up a pic of a crackhead (as a diss to another poster) in a non-basketball thread, and I quoted his pic and showed much worry over the Orlando Magic's next season, saying they will officially go 12-70 next year. Then everyone on the board bugged out laughing cause it really looked so much like Steve Francis.

This was like 5 years ago or more.
