    Rafer has gone 7-15 and 4-12 in the last 2 games for 40.7% from the field. If he shoots another 4-12 in the next game, he will be back down to 38% for the last 3 games, including one outstanding game.

    I just have a difficult time seeing that Rafer is going to improve signficantly from where he is right now. If I had to bet the over/under on whether he shoots 40% from the field for the rest of the season, I'd bet the under.

    We seem to be winning. It appears to me that some here would prefer us playing the scrub and losing. We probably need to tank the season and get the #1 pick too.

    So now people are hoping for injuries so that V-Span can play?!? Just sad. If Rafer got injured, we would be in BIG trouble. Rafer is so valuable to our team because he chews up minutes playing solid basketball. JL3 and V-Span would NOT be able to pick up that slack. It's not even a question.

    He doesnt shoot that muhc, that is my point. If Rafer only shot that many shots a game I would be fine with him, but h does not. He as well as Vspan are bad shooters. This month, Rafer has NO game sover 50 %. Since niether can shoot, why not give a change of pace, even for 5-12 minutes per game

    Rafer's shooting in January 2007

    6-16 vs.SEA
    5-17 vs. UTA
    4-17 vs. MIN
    2-14 vs. CHI
    8-19 vs. LAL
    5-15 vs. DEN
    7-17 vs. SAC
    4-10 vs. DAL
    12-25 vs. PHX
    5-18 vs. DEN
    7-15 vs. SAS
    4-12 vs. POR

    but they're currently playing reasonably well... if it ain't broke, don't fix it!


    (p.s. stop beating this dead horse and shut the hell up already)
