    Rafer's poor shooting

    Rafer went 1-8 with Orlando tonight, makes me wonder why people in this board embrace him so much.

    He controls the offense, other than that, he is garbage.

    shard and hedo each hit like 5 three pointers, i'm sure most of Rafer's assists came from just swinging it to them...

    i visited a magic forum and they believe alston just had an off night because he's on a new team and "just needs a few games"....wait until they realize this is how he normally shoots..

    1) Wrong Forum. For as long as he was here, he's not here now.

    2) There's already a thread in the NBA Dish forum on his Magic debut.

    rafer 1-9

    AB 5-10 so far and 6 rebounds and 7 dimes

    thats 8 or 9 more points everynight when you're pg doesnt miss easy shots. I know rafer has less turnovers but 6 or 7 open 3's that are bricked are basically turnovers.

    8 assists on the Magic isn't that impressive. However, I will say Alston did have a pretty decent game. It wasn't a bad one that's for sure. Wasn't a great one either.

    Just decent.

    He shot a better percentage than Reddick, who went 0-6 - donut total. :)

    Rafer is no longer a Rocket, can we just let his time end in this forum? Please. I don't care about his perfomance with the other team or whatever. Rafer officially belongs in the NBA Dish forum (wow, never thought I would be saying that, :D).
