Just read this whole thing, some real gems in here. I'm glad that I'll be posting in NBA threads now so that I can interact more with tuq [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

First of all I hate Rafer Alston, the only thing he iscapable of is dribbling the ball. He's a defensive liability, can't create a shot for anyone, and even when he gets by his man he can't finish. He shot 36% from 3 last year, yay!. His FG% was 38% last year [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img].

I'm saying start Mike James. When he played 35+ mpg for the raptors he was putting up 20ppg/6apg. Last year he was only playing 25mpg and still getting 10/4. Someone started talking about he defensive skills in this thread. I wasn't aware he had any, am I being leveled? A 6`2" defensive PG is useless anyways IMO (hello Rajon Rondo).

There's a lot of hype (for a role player) around Luis Scola. If this dude can just put up something like 10/8ish numbers every night, I'll be ecstatic.

The Steve Francis deal is meh, he's a nonfactor.
