    Rafer's numbers are unbelievable for the past few games.

    Still, he almost managed to lose that Detroit game for us with his idiotic "teardrop" near the end.

    I'm not a Rafer hater. I'm overjoyed with his play and hope he continues to play at this level. I'm just stating the facts. Rafer has a set of games every year where he plays at this level, but over a year, period he will be a sub 40 percent shooter like he has been in every other season. That is just the facts.

    he doesn't necessary have to shoot as much this year with the addition of ronron, so i think his passing has been better this year. he should be averaging 8-9 assists per game with all the weapons he's got.

    And his three point chucks too with tons of tmie left on the shot clock .... He and TSlack were in a contest to see who could make more dumb plays at the end of the game offensively.

    In Detroit, it was Airballston and TSlack. In NY, it was Artest and TSlack. We've got some really stupid players on our squad ... wow.

    Airballston does it again. Horrible decision around the rim. Terrible shooting. Turnovers. Count me as one who was never on the bandwagon and never ever will be.

    the guy is just so inconsistant. He calls the team selfish, yet he makes some of the most selfish decisions on the court ive ever seen. youre shooting 35 percent, why the hell are you averaging 11 shots a game?

    As long as the Rockets have two D-league PGs in their rotation, forget it. A trade HAS to happen and I'm sure it will.

    Probably should play a little better if you're going to call your teammates out 2 days before the game.

    Problem right now is both Alston and Brooks are struggling.

    Yep....Thats a huge problem. I havent checked for sure, but it seems like whenever we get overall decent PG play, we win.

    He needs to be benched and come in with Brooks. These two can up the tempo and run the other benches out of the building.
