Just watching random stuff on youtube. Dude was surprisingly fast (not necessarily quick) for his size and those turnaround jumpers were nice. Yao Ming would probably be the best center today give or take...Steven francis was so athletic, this was a couple years before Isiah Thomas teamed him up with Stephon Marbury (genius move). and that hawks team :oldlol: stephen jackson, jason terry, boris diaw, and joel przybilla the vanilla gorilla

It was hard to watch his lower body deteriorate. Being that big of a human being...wow.

He was very likable.

I forget what season it was but Houston fans might remember. It might've been his first big injury. He went down in February or something. But that first half of the season he was looking like a top 3 player.
