When I was younger, I recall watching my first NBA game and Steve Francis was the only player to catch my eye. Ridiculous handles and crazy hops. I instantly became a fan of the sport, I fell in love with Rocket basketball, and I enjoyed watching The Franchise put in work. When Stevie would isolate someone with that double cross threw both legs, you knew wassup. He takin' it straight to the cup. Francis never would quite pass the ball. BUT if he did, he always passed it to "The Cat". lol

[@momimio]

Steve Francis was incredible.

[@ryublueblanka]

This Grizzlies team was nice with Hubie Brown as coach who by the way is a real basketball Master. Jason Williams was traded for Mike Bibby and was never quite the same player as he was in Sacramento...I would have liked to see that Kings team develop another year or two they were so fun to watch and JWill was allowed and able to play his game.

[@nanagyambibi7426]

The biggest difference in todays game and the early 2000s game is the high volume of 3s thats being taken AND the lack of back to the basket big men. Those two things make todays game hard to enjoy.

[@balbin0329]

@@benjaminddennis I never really considered JWill being on Franchises level. So even uping him by just 3 assists is still very Impressive to me. Simply put, he was the better point guard this night! 😂

[@StevanChase]

Yeah I agree, JWill did outplay if you really calculate it. Those 3 assist JWill prob would've scored but passed to an even better opportunity which results in more point on the board . It's because of those assists that they won the game. Not saying who's better, but this game JWill won.
