I like it and therefore I approve this message and give Rafer Alston the title as the leader of this team! 8)

Amel approved. Does your approval deserve its own thread? JK...
But he's definitely one of the leaders, and he's vocal.

Didn't you see the CP3 incident?

I could of sworn I saw McGrady score 7 points w/ a block/rebound/assist in the final 3 minutes of the game.

Do you really have to trash McGrady to feel good about yourself?

I dunno. Haven't seen him play too much, but it seems like Calderon is pretty damn good. How's his defense?

Kidd's been on that list since well before the Mavs lost their sanity and traded for him. :rofl:

Well we already knew Alston can play D, and he can handle the rock. Of course when he actually shoots the ball well he actually looks like a legit starting PG for a contender. Let's not overreact about this though, I think we all know how hot and cold Alston's shooting can get.

BayBaller, I understand what you are saying, but I am talking here about the vocal figure Alston has become,

how come noone noticed when he instructed and told TMac to get back on defense and stop complaining, that was classic

I like it, someone needs to tell it how it is, and Alston did it last night for the first time I've seen him

He directs McGrady off screens too. Dude we all knew this about Rafer. Nobody is fighting you that the guy can play this game and does a good job for this team in certain aspects. The problem with Alston and it always be this....he can get to the basket easily. But he can't finish. Frustrating. He gets more open 3s than any PG in basketball...he doesn't make enough of em. If he is able to do those things consistently I think everyone would love Rafer. But he doesn't do those things often enough. He is the key to this whole series. If he plays well in game 4 we'll be in it with a chance to win....and so on..

Iggy,

it seem you didnt understand what I am saying here

I am not saying about his ability to put players in a certain position, we all know he can do that...but last night, He took it directly to McGrady on the bench, and McGrady looked at him like "what the hell Rafer!?

Rafer just point blank is saying, ok if you guys cant step up and say what needs to be said, I'll take it into my hands

Both McGrady and Rafer need to go but i'll keep Rafer before T-Mac.
