    Frustration buildup? Haha I find that kinda funny though too..atleast he isnt afraid of Duncan, I think he could take him..Duncan doesnt look like a fighter.

    I just kept watching it over and over and laughing, Duncan is so confused as to what he did, he's just stunned, look at how he approaches the ref, and then Rafer is walking all angry and turns around like he's going to beat them up or something lol.

    Yeah duncan is like "wtf just happened here? what did I do?"

    please keep us updated as to why rafer felt he needed to hit duncan for no apparent reason [​IMG]

    was he really suspended? cause if he was we would most likely lose the game without him.

    skips always been over emotional. he's like Artest in that way....his tenasity and toughness....and his consistent intensity. Dont think it was called for though...i'd rather him not be like that......could be looked at as being a cry-baby. But i'm not gunna say that...cuase i love skip.

    EDIT: see how quickly the ref was backtracking

    Well... he was pissed off because he didn't get the call, i seen that live, it looked like he tried to swipe the ball away from Duncan from a different angle, but yeah he actually hit him really hard ... lol maybe that was going through Duncan's mind when he kept on shooting the ball and missing later that quarter... HAHa

    And I don't think he was really suspended. Nothing about it is mentioned on the Raptors.com or anywhere else.

    WHat [​IMG], we had a lot of players back it's not like he was on top of the key and got picked by Tony Parker, and no foul was called even, and that definately isn't how you foul someone to stop a break, he slapped him and was walking like he was angry lol

    I think he did it trying to say "If they can get away with fouling me, can I get away with fouling them?" to the refs.

    [​IMG] It's funny cuz Duncan is totally confused.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">I think he did it trying to say "If they can get away with fouling me, can I get away with fouling them?" to the refs.</div>

    Yea that's what I think Rafer Alston was trying to show. Manu "fouls" him, no call, so he can foul someone (Duncan) and not called for a foul. He had a few words for the ref, so I'm sure its something related to that.

    interesting. Maybe a fine, but I don't think any suspension.

    But tahts a stupid foul, but his emotion is a good thing. He
    s not a loose cannon like artest has gained notoriety as, but emotion is needed to play.I like JYDs and Rafer's emotion.

    and that ref was smart, albeit it looked hilarious

    haha, it seems like Alston's true colours are starting to come out. I heard he was charged with assault a few times. I think he beat up his ex-girlfriend and one of his neighbours.... or something like that. Did anyone else hear about that?

    I don't think he'll get a suspension though. The league would've done something by now if that was case.
