@@guitarsANDcars39 bro I was just telling my cousin this lol. He stayed torching Kobe lol. Steve Francis aka Franchise will always be my all time favorite player
You if you are an 80's baby like I am & you loved to dribble Tim Hardaway, Iverson, Francis, Marbury and J. Will were the players you learned from straight up!
*Dawkins can you post the lebron james vs steve fancis game in 2005 where Steve Francis had 30 pts,13 ast vs Lebron James 28 pts,9 ast, season 2005 magic vs cavs* (thumbs this up so he can see this)
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
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.
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.
54 been watching b ball since 1976 I always said Jason Williams was one of the best passers ever, in the class with Magic 🔮 Pistol 🔫 Stockton Jason Kidd and LeBron. He is a great set up man.. Just wondering played half a season at Florida dropped 37 on Kentucky after that I was always high on the kid,
Steve Francis was a mix of Kyrie and Westbrook boi has real game. JWill was the one out bring a really good pg but not as good as the best. He would be an all star in a less stacked era of pgs
Yo that was HARD!!!!! 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣 good post. Francis my fav player ever and j will one of the greatest white boys to lace them up hands down. This was dope!!!
@@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! 😂
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.
Wow, this game is LIT. ANY TEAM with j-will in it is worth to watch. Francis looking so big on the court near the other guards, especially near j-will😁. And Gasol looking soft.
@@mikenojones6861 been A mavs since since the days when Herb Williams and Derek Harper left Dallas to go to NY. Pre the 3 Js and the Toni Braxton drama. I'm talking Ro Blackman, Brad Davis, Mark Aquirre, Detlef Schrempf, Tarpley and his drug issues up to Tony Dumas in the dunk contest, Robert Pack and George McCloud, the 3 point specialist
Now looking back on it, the Rockets should have never traded for T-Mac. Francis, Mobley, & Cato were such great role players around Yao and had great chemistry with him.
2000s nba had so many stars, a few became so underrated in their primes.
so many stars spread out throughout the league. Francis was an allstar.
mid 2000s NBA was the end of the position basketball era, in ther own way those players wer better than todays
drake mott no
Yvans yes.
Allen iverson steve Francis starbury baron Davis jason kid Vince carter kobe Bryant Gilbert t mac all legendary
RIP Lorenzen Wright & Eddie Griffin
Thats crazy what happened to them
Before Tracy McGrady came to Houston, Steve Francis was my favorite player. He was the man.
Gabriel Hunt i agree, fantastic and powerfull player, a very star.
That’s how nasty the league was in this era... Dudes as dope as Steve Francis are virtually forgotten.
He ain't forgotten in Houston. Kobe and AI damn sure remember him. Steve used to torch Kobe back then.
@@guitarsANDcars39 bro I was just telling my cousin this lol. He stayed torching Kobe lol. Steve Francis aka Franchise will always be my all time favorite player
NBA games were so fun to watch back then
林Hero yeah, kids these day just shoot threes nonstop.
You're old.. Go watch golf
@@tommyxiao872 because harden and morey changed the game
they still are

Only hardaway played in the 80s my boy
@@gentlemans.guidance365 you're dumb ass shit I'm talkin about my age fool
Baron Davis too
90s baby and liked em
@@elbowgang9715 Facts
*BRUH..PLEASE POST MORE VIDS OF STEVE FRANCIS..HE WAS MY FAV PLAYER TO WATCH GROWING UP HERE IN HOUSTON*
What part of the H you from...I'm from the south side

Im from the south side of Houston as well..south west to be exact (braeswood)
White Chocolate!!! Ahead of his time...he would kill in this era. 🔥🔥. Thanks for the video....
He was too bad he retired early

that game is already on youtube
I'll jkll k j lolly u k k koo lmao waa qa I'll
@@jermondc.williamsjr.8532 really?! You kidding me!?
J Will was a beast then. And the Rifleman's younger brother for the win.
Rip Lorenzen and Eddie, great game! Francis and jwill were one of my fav players 💯💯
Happened just over 20 years ago. Damn time flies.
This is a gem. Miss this era

I wanted to request Nick Van Exel v Gary Payton in the 90s. Keep up the great work!!
Jonathan C. Don’t leave out Dana barrows
james kimp
Dana Barros was unstoppable for a few years! I made him for NBA 2K. He can make any shot at any time. 😎
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.
Nana Gyambibi I didn’t watch basketball in the 2000s but I can respect that
Nana Gyambibi big men are making a comeback my man. Tune in this season you'll see
Nana Gyambibi it’s sad bro every team wants to play like the warriors instead of having their own style
Not for the casual fan and that's the fan the NBA targets
The paint was severely clogged too.
Stevie franchise was tough!
Those two when they was playing the same years in that league j will and Steve Francis had some insane handles 💯% lol
J-Will & Stevie Franchise 2 of the nastiest!!!
This Grizzlies team was nice with Hubie Brown as coach who by the way is a real basketball Master.

thanks for the upload!! my fav players
Steve Francis was incredible.
Oh I forgot hot quick gasol was back then. I thought he was underrated in Memphis
He was an allstar with Memphis. Don't forget about that
@@guitarsANDcars39 still underrated compared to other all-stars at that time.
Before derrick rose russel westbrooke there was steve francis..
Steven Franchise*
Young Steve Francis was such a beast, like Westbrook with a streetball handle. Shaking everyone out of their shoes and dunking on them.
Better shooter
JWill had insane vision!
Rip Lorenzen Wright
the legendary Canadian Team Vancouver and also RIP to Lorenzo Wright
Just imagine in 20 years when people start calling the players of the early 2000's unskilled lol
exactly
9:27 R.I.P. Lorenzen Wright the Big Homie 💯
Steve Francis starbury baron Davis jason kid Vince carter kobe Bryant Gilbert t mac Allen iverson all were the cream of the crop post mj
Francis dunking every chance he gets LOLL

Hes a champion also 1 ring in Miami

If J-Will & Franchise had each been about 2-3" taller I think they'd have made the Hall Of Fame. Such freakish amounts of pure talent and bravado.
J Will the highlight reel, cross you over, hell yeah he will, rookie of the year giving all he got, he’s been known to shot em from the parking lot!
Francis made the court look about half as long as it actually is with how quick he could go coast to coast
Is this the raptors commentator?
Ya, Matt Devlin is awesome
Clutch Plays He was the announcer in Memphis first.
yep, Matty D!
thanks so much for this upload. been searching for francis games. you have any more?!?
Crazy because Steve was drafted by this franchise being the grizzles but didn't want to move to Vancouver because the love of his family.
Jason Williams tore it up in that game
Those were some good lineups
I don't remember Glen Rice playing with Houston
Dang really? U must have been in diapers lol
Only 1 yr i believe
People forget how great steve was he came up in the same era as iverson but francis was the guard i wanted to be like
same
Yo that was HARD!!!!! 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣 good post. Francis my fav player ever and j will one of the greatest white boys to lace them up hands down. This was dope!!!
Amazing! Franchise got outplayed by White Chocolate 💕
I wouldn't say he out played Franchise when Stevie had 29pts 9 ast and 3 steals. J Will had 25 pts 12 ast and 2 steals. Sounds like a wash to me! lol!

lol stromile swift !! he was fun to watch especially the time he posterised Yao.
Post more Stevie franchise highlights
J will would be really valuable in the game today
Que jogão esse... disputado ponto a ponto. Obrigado por postar !!!
Wow, this game is LIT. ANY TEAM with j-will in it is worth to watch. Francis looking so big on the court near the other guards, especially near j-will😁. And Gasol looking soft.
glen rice played for hou? tf?
"Giricek took a quick, ill-advised three. Why would you do that??" 😫😂😂😂
Giricek iven
i love this guy
8:27 Steve Step back not James Harden
Good game for J Will
As a Mavs fan, I hated seeing the backcourt of Stevie Franchise and The Cat

R.I.P. Lorenzen Wright.
steve francis or stephon marbury?
Francis was more athletic, explosive and fun to watch
Francis dawg
The Franchise
Marbury
Francis
Man what could’ve been if the Rockets never traded away Steve Francis.
Wholeeeee lotta Lssssss boiiii Franchise got traded for fucking T-MAC remember that lolz
I totally forgot G. Rice was even on this team!
Yea he only played 2 season with the rockets, he was traded after this year in 03-04 (whenn the rockets changed to there current jerseys they use now)
Jason williams, steve francis, baron davis...
These shoot first point guards would flourish in this era..haha
이홍규 Jason Williams wasn’t a shoot first 🤧
CraZy that lerenzo got kill..
J. Will is like THE EMINEM of Basketball.
If Houston could have kept him and added Tracey the rockets would have won a ship
@devinmccambell believe it or not franchise and Mac was on the same team when adelman was coach in 08 season
@@anthonyg3961 Steve was not the same steve....a shell of himself
WHITE CHOCOLATE! DAMN I FORGOT HOW LETHAL THAT SNIPER WAS....AND STEVE FRANCHISE WAS THE SHIT FOR ORLANDO..SHAME HE FADED TO FAST.
10:32 back when you could step on the line and still get 3 points.
Franchise and Yao = your favorite guard’s favorite guard and hidden treasure of China. Awesome combination. Memp got lucky oh well. Peace
shoot this is prime jwill
A real BIG 3 that I wanted to see pan out...loved the franchise, cat and Yao! JVG had to fuck it up
Pau Gasol was running like a small forward.
Man's trying to make a comeback next year at the age of 67. I'm proud of him
@@mumblesl0ud He better rub some Metamucil ointment on his joints before he goes back out there😂
Dudes had Drew gooden playing SF
Am I trippin' or is the 3 point line shorter?
Scott Thomas it’s longer
youg GASOL!!!🔥
Damn, RIP Lorenzen Wright!!!!!
Look at Pau 😂 and how young he was
R.I.P. Wright
What a game!
11:32, thats a heat check
WOW verry rare Glenn Rice in Rockets :)
Now looking back on it, the Rockets should have never traded for T-Mac. Francis, Mobley, & Cato were such great role players around Yao and had great chemistry with him.
They should have tried to just add an extra player instead of breaking them up
That was van gundys fault. I hate him to this day for that
Great game
And Memphis wins in overtime making it 4 straight, they improve to 6-18, lol
wow, Cuttino Mobley was way worse than I remember. The guy is like Harrison Barnes a few years ago from the playoffs, straight bricks smh
Warriors bandwagon be like, curry has better handles.😅
yaboii swagger lol I also watch nba bro. Are you saying cars are lame? Yeah curry 0 finals mvp.
yaboii swagger nah, iggy did alot. Especially defending lebron.
curry actually does, so they're right about that one..
he have handles but he have team america with a snake durcunt
Memphis has one loyal fan base...
Am i the only one who thinks this was also Pau vs Yao?
J will was sick
Has anyone ever won without scoring more points than their opponent?
