This thread get's the award for the most contradiction ina headline. Rafer and jump shot just don't go together. Now Rafer and "OHHHH BABBEE!!!" goes together (anyoen whose seen And1 knows what I'm talking about)
The Pacers announcers were begging to have Rafer put back on the floor and Brooks sent back to the bench. It's like everyone outside the Rockets organization needs 3 min to come to the realization that Rafer is a mutt, but no one on the Rox has figured this **** out in 3 yrs now
Indeed strange but on the other hands obvious because Brooks is faster and a better defender. Rafer is easy to beat (Marbury got past him a lot) and Brooks not so easy. I like Rafer but at some point you need some point, which is now, you need a consistent PG like Cassell jp. I would love to see Cassell come back but not at the expense of Rafer. Imo you can make the trade and let Cassell start, let Rafer come off the bench and move Mike James, Bonzi & Snyder (maybe Hayes if that's what the LAC want) to LA. Who's with me ?
I love the idea of bringing Cassell back. He is not the long-term answer but he would still be a short-term fix. The dude can still bring it.
