Rafer Alston Leaves Team Before the End of a Game
Former Milwaukee Bucks guard and current Toronto Raptors problem-child Rafer Alston walked out on his team last night. You may remember Alston walked out of a practice earlier this month. If he doesn't check himself he might have to go back to being "Skip to my lou" instead of Rafer Alston.
Do you think Toronto regrets signing Alston to a six-year $30 million dollar deal right about now?
"It's like one big soap opera," said forward Morris Peterson.
Yeah, I think Mo Pete hit that one on the head. Nothing is more professional than leaving your team before a game is over. Classy move by Rafer.
Some reports said Alston was ushered out of the building with a half-dozen guards, with police keeping the Media from the locker-room for almost a half-hour after the game.
Could things be going any worse for Sam Mitchell in his first season as coach of the Raptors? Hopefully the Milwaukee Bucks make his life a little worse tonight by bringing some of the offensive prowess they displayed against Boston last night at the Bradley Center.
