BOO-freaking-HOO!!
Tell them that the CBA still has 2 open slots left if they feel that way.
Mobley's an over-priced player and Francis is just an And1 All-Star with a league contract.
This is digusting.
If the TMac deal falls through, if I was the Rockets' brass, I'd ship them both to the mean streets of Utah for future 2nd round picks.

Mobley is a cancer. Ever since he has been one of the Rockets scorers he has been a negative effect on steve francis and the whole organization.
I have seen many plays durring the game where Mobley will push the pace on plays that need to be slowed down so that Yao Ming can have time to get set up. - Obviously if you use Yao then you shouldn't force fastbreaks that aren't their because it wastes Yaos talents.
=Mobley will almost always try to force a situation where it is him and Francis trying to run up the floor. He is not a team player. He is greedy and/or he doesn't understand winning basketball. Mobley gets a lot of "team" points that anyone could have scored. He should concentrate on playing better defense and sticking to the high percentage shots and good threeball looks within the teams flow.
Francis gets hated on very unfairly. He is not far behind Iverson as a scoring point guard type. Maybe if he had good coaches like larry brown they would have used him right by playing him as a 2 guard like Iverson. His current coach is good , but players like Mobley and a lack of other Talent makes them only a fringe playoff team.
People get mad because Franchise cant SINGLEHANDEDLY bring his team to the finals. But give him a latrell and a KG and see what happens
