Francis, who missed two games, met with team officials on Monday and general manager Otis Smith said the team is eager to move on. "We now consider the matter closed and look forward to Steve's return to practice tomorrow," Smith said in a statement.</div> http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2294526
I still think Francis will be traded. I think this is all a plan by the Magic to increase Francis' value. If teams saw that he wasn't helping us at all, they wouldn't offer as much if he were still playing. Hopefully some good comes out of this situation. Whether it be we trade Francis or he gets an attitude adjustment, hopefully our team improves because of this.
