Last night at Tux and Tennies, Rafer came to our table and was Nostradamus

    Rafer was prophetic last night when he came by our table. When Les was talking about the game against the Nets, he singled out Rafer’s play. Rafer said that means 2 things, one of which is that he is being traded. Ends up he is right!

    Was he trying to be funny or did he seem serious about it?

    Sounds like Les has his favorite scapegoats, too. Maybe he's a member of this board.

    Rafer should be happy. He is going to a team that is full of shooters, has a beast down low and a coach that has confidence in him. Oh yeah, and they have a better chance of getting to the Finals than the Rockets.

    Rafer will come up clutch defending MO WILLIAMS in the Playoffs 2nd round. He'll do something big for them.

    He said it with a smile on his face but I guess he knew it might happen. Rafer, AB and Matt Bullard were the coolest guys I met last night. On the silent auction sheets they had pre-printed prices that increased in increments. You would put your sticker down on how much you wanted to bid on something.

    AB wrote in $1.00 and put his sticker next to it for a Rafer Alston, framed and autographed picture. :D Those two seemed to get along well and like to joke around with each other. AB came by and told him if his picture sold for $2.00

    rafer was one of the players most visibily and obviously upset by the tmac & artest drama - not surprising at all that he got moved.

    OF COURSE HE's HAPPY! Orlando has 10 times more chances to win a Ring!

    And Rafer can now feed the best Center in the league!

    I know for a fact that Battier hates T-Mac's guts.
