rafer came back and did what what he was abe to do was no small miracle. my hat off to the guy. glad i was wrong, rafer.
I'm not saying the Rafer is the savor of the team, but to ignore his importance to the Rockets is just plain stupid! The guy is our starting point guard, and no one on the roster comes even close to him in running the offense. If you cannot see this, you should not watch basketball. Go back to watch the first two games without Alston, see how ugly the offense was, then watch tonight's game again. Rafer is a big difference maker for this team, he puts every player into their comfortable position, give them confidence with the ball in his hands. He may not be the best shooter, but nobody handles ball as well. It's amazing and enjoyable to see that the Jazz was afraid to press the ball when Rafer had the ball. The guy is just so smooth with the ball, 1 TO for 35 minutes playing after two weeks injury absence, just outstanding!
Kenny and Charles made a great analysis after the game when they said Rafer actually studied the first 2 games while on the bench (as opposed to feeling sorry for himself for being injured) and paid attention to the adjustments that needed to be made. MAJOR PROPS TO RAFER!
