What can we expect from Rafer in Game 4?

There are three things that I am certain of when it comes to the 2009 NBA Finals:

1.  No matter how well Kobe Bryant plays, someone will find areas to criticize him.  That person will not be me.

2.  Hedo Turkoglu would break my HDTV receiver... if Carlos Boozer hadn't already done it.

3.  Rafer Alston will not have a good Game 4.

Accordingly, in light of these inevitable facts:

It was a only a matter of time till Dwight Howard’s free throw shooting came crashing back down to earth.

Orlando’s blowing it right now.

I was soooo close!!
Final tally:

5-14 FG (1-4 3pt), 11 point. I was off by all of one FG make.

It's not your fault

We usually expect him to make less FG not more. I would say he exceeded expectations today making more that 35% of his shots.

As long as Rafer Alston is jacking up bad shots, Rafer posts are always warranted.

Rafer is pissed!

I don’t understand do you guys here love Rafer or hate him? He used to be ur starting point guard.

IMO

He seems like a nice guy to hang out with, but not so much as a player. He takes way too many bad shots and is a pretty bad finisher around the rim. Most of us are happy that he left and took his 4-15FG shooting per game with him. Also with the emergence of ABZ in the playoffs, we are better off without him. Overall, he’s a fun player to watch when he’s not on your team, ofcourse.
