<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Cupid's arrow apparently touched down in the Raptors dressing room on Valentine's Day. Coming off a week of altercations, trade demands and wild accusations from Vince Carter's mother, the Raptors appeared to be a tight, functional team yesterday. Amazing what a win -- even one against the reeling Los Angles Clippers on Sunday -- can do for a shaky squad. Reporters trying to make an issue out of Jalen Rose's fourth-quarter benching in the 109-106 win discovered all seemed cool between player and coach yesterday. </div>Source A part of the article touches upon the pairing of Alston and Palacio on the floor. It allows Rafer to be more of a shooting guard so Mitchell can't be pissed at him for taking so many shots. I can't believe I'm saying this but....I kinda like that lineup.
It takes some pressure off Rafer, but on defense I think Rafer guards the point guards, and Milt covers the SGs.
man...how indicative of the state of things is it when, basically "there is nothing bad to report" is whats being reported
