    I was at the game and all I saw was Francis going after Claxton because of something that Claxton said. Can somebody tell me everything that happened?

    The sad thing is that Francis got worked by Claxton last nite, too. You'd think to close out on a shooter maybe just once after the guy has hit 7straight J's on you. Maybe.

    So why'd they both get technicals? I couldn't tell exactly what happened. I got 5 autographs before the game. From Cuttino Mobley, Eddie Griffin, Oscar Torres, Kevin Willis, and Terrence Morris. I tried to get Francis'. He was in the back of the tunnel thing and I called out to him. He put his hand up. I think he meant that he would sign after the game or something.

    They were jawing and pushing each other after a missed shot. The refs had to separate them.
