There has been a longstanding romance between hip hop and the NBA and there are several products from this relationship. In rhymes, the current headliners like Rick Ross, Drake, and Lil Wayne name-drop NBA ballers. The veterans like Jay-Z often compare themselves to the likes of such legends as Michael Jordan.

Of course, being a DJ is the priority, but there is still time to follow the NBA. For a decade, a good friend virtually lived on the ESPN highlight reels, Steve Francis. From the moment he came into the game until the last time he took the court, Steve Francis balled, plain and simple. Years after his run is over, his name still comes up in sports debates because dude had skills.

A lot is going on in sports right now, with the Miami Heat coming off their 27 game winning streak and the many point guards rising to fame. With all of this going on, the NBA has become interesting again and discussions/barber shop arguments are going down. A laid back Saturday seems like the perfect time to look back on the legacy Steve Francis left.

Searching through YouTube for some Steve Francis highlights, this video fit the mood.
