    Will Rafer Alston have a .400 FG average by the end of the season?

    What do you guys think? He shot great the last 7 games, but the last two, weren't so great. No knock on Alston. I think he played tremendously this late in the season, especially defensively. This is just a poll on whether he can make .400 FG again, like he did last time in Toronto.

    He's actually at .407 for the season. Only .388 career though.

    Well, if Adelman doesn't start resting Rafer a little more, it's reasonable to expect him to tire as the season progresses and for that percentage to drop.

    Adelman is coaching all these games like they're playoff games. This is going to be a tired group of players in April.

    There's 17 more games. This post is whether he will end with .400 FG by the end of 2007-2008 season.

    Every other team is having to approach this the same way. The Rockets are still not far away from being out of the playoffs, and, hopefully, all the other teams will be tired as well.

    They are all basically playoff games. If getting the top seed weren't so important, then Adleman wouldn't be playing em like this. Every game is gonna be like a playoff game. With our streak going every single team we play is gonna want to knock us off. They will all bring their "A" game.

    I just have a feeling every playoff team in the West other than San Antonio is going to exhaust themselves, and the Spurs will roll through all the tired teams.

    If they slack off and lose several games in a row, they might not even be in the playoffs. The West is rough-and-tumble now.

    They have lost 4 out of the last 5 and almost lost the 5th won to Denver at home, they are not exactly playing inspired ball at a time they are usually rolling.
