He's getting pissed because all the weakazz shots he throws up around the basket are getting swatted into the 3rd row. Seriously, the man needs to take less shots and quit acting hard.
I thought Artest was going to stack up the T's this season but Rafer's looking like Freakin' Rasheed Wallace out there!
I don't mind it we need someone with competitive fire out there to try to spark a fire at times...... goes without saying he was also blocked 3 times by a no name guy ...... and a rookie went off on him! never a good combo for a vet.
So? He is fine, I just wish he would hit his open shots. Anyone would love to get a upgrade for Alston.
I get the feeling he's trying to keep Artest in check in some weird way. Better he's the one that acts crazy instead of giving Artest the opportunity.
Rafer was arguing? Rafer was yellling? Rafer was complaining to an official? No way. I don't believe this. Rafer is curazy but he's not that curazzzzzzy.
I think it hilarious when he starts yelling at his team mate when he drives to the basket just to get swatted away... thats all you Rafer... no one to yell at but yourself and your horrendous ability to finish at the basket... It seems like this season, Rafer is trying to play a lot like Brooks but he doesnt have quite the speed to get past his defender.
rafer haters need to wake up........how big a of a detriment can he be if he's running pt and the team has won 50+ games just about every year since he's been here...........they hung in it with utah inthe playoffs, once he went down, so did the team. you cant have perenial all start at every position..........the rockets aren't going to lose the championship cause the 5th most important player on the team isn't doing a good enough job............if the big 3 does their thing, it shouldnt matter, just like rajon rondo's play didnt really matter last year.
Near the end of the game he was pointing his finger in the face of the official that gave him the tech, then you can see Adelman having a conversation with him as they huddle for the timeout. I'm not saying I don't like his fire but he seems to be overdoing it lately.
