I played NBA Courtside 2002 for countless hours last semester in my neighbor's dorm room, and Francis was my #1 man. That was a shitty video game, but endless fun. I'm pumped.

Moochie! He's one of my favorites. Yao and Tracy are good, but Moochie and Steve had personality. Oh man, I remember that bus commercial from way back when. Glad to have Steve back!

I think we will be much better at the 1 this year after reacquiring Mike James and Steve. My only concern with Steve is that he NOT dribble out 23 seconds of the shot clock before heaving an ill-advised jumper like he used to so often us in the past. I still have nightmares about that...

Frankly, I'm stoked too. I agree with the added dimension comment and hope that he can still drive to the basket, something we are lacking. I may even have to plunk down some coin for a mini-pack of Rockets tickets!

Nice work, Groovehouse. I am stoked to have Stevie Franchise back. It will energize half assed fans like myself and hopefully add a dimension on the court that is missing.
