    Steve Francis has decided to leave his Chinese team after playing in just four games over two weeks.

    Francis was out-of-shape and played just 14 minutes for the Beijing Ducks, according to the Chinese media.

    The three-time NBA All-Star left the stadium midway through the Ducks' 104-89 victory over the Jiangsu Dragons on Sunday

    Francis had reportedly signed with the Ducks for $800,000 for the 32-game 2010-11 season, a portion of which he will receive as a settlement.

    "I feel unhappy that I couldn't play the game. I know I was not well-prepared physically to help the team on court. As the team is in hot form, I think it is best for both sides for me to terminate my contract," Francis was quoted as telling Beijing Television on Monday afternoon.

    Still remember how promising he looked when he played for the rockets. What a shame.

    This is all well and good, but what about tarps? Is this the right place to look for tarps online? I've been looking everywhere (nowhere) and nobody seems to have the tarp information I require.
