    Umm...if people considered the PG spot a hole in our roster before, now what?

    I'll miss ya Skip. The best of luck in Orlando. You can throw alley oops now, heh.

    Good luck Rafer. Even though your offense suck, you always give it your all and play hard. Thanks for everything.

    Wow! I never thought I actually would feel a little sad from seeing Rafer being traded. :confused: He was a leader that ran the team and played great for us before this happened. Hope the best for him.

    Rafer, it was fun to watch you running the shows! Still cannot believe the trade.

    Wish you all best in your future games and your whole career!

    Best of luck, skip!

    Rafer may have been a bad butter, but he was on our side of the bread.

    I do not believe we can make it past the first round without him.

    4 mil for a starting PG. Alston does his job. Wish him good luck in Magics.
