And he spoke openly about it, criticizing the Magic for trading his best friend to Sacramento.

Francis seems to think he is always in control of everything. That was the problem with him in Houston and he is still acting the same way.

Granted, having played with a guy that long, it will be an adjustment for Stevie Franchise...but that is why he gets the big bucks. He should be happy that his friend is going to a team that he will be able to get good minutes with.

The Magic sure seem to like to break up player friendships... Last time they traded T-Mac's best friend Mike Miller for Drew Gooden.

Quote:
``You don't wait 30 minutes before a game to tell a guy he's traded,'' Francis said. ``The way you handle relationships, for me, is going to change the way that I approach the game, more businesslike than anything.''


I think McGrady too the same approach too... hence his admission to slacking off in games and demanding a trade Confused But on the bright side, at least Sacramento now has a Shooting Guard who can actually Shoot. Exclamation Before they just needed Christie to guard Kobe. Now the Lakers are one injury away from being a lottery team, so happy trails.
