Merry Christmas!

I really just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. But I just can't stop there.

So the Houston Rockets traded Steve Francis to the Memphis Grizzlies. Fhis complete his full-circle career path. Remember, Francis forced a trade from the Grizz to the Rockets before he ever played a game. The Grizz were in Vancouver at the time though. But the more interesting part of this trade was The Grizzlies gave up a conditional second-round pick in 2011, and the Rockets gave the Grizzlies a second-round pick this year and enough money to pay off the rest of his salary for the year. So its pretty wierd but it seems like The Rockets were like we don't want him SO MUCH that we'll give you your second round pick and some money. The Grizz who are struggling and need some help with point guard are like "Hell Yeah we'll give this guy a shot!" So now Memphis has a new 31 year old point guard who is coming off of knee surgery. Merry Chirstmas Steve Francis, you might need it for your mental well-being.
