www.nba.com/raptors/news/PR_james_for_alston.htmlRafer Alston for Mike James. I guess Houston is banking on Skip keeping his attitude in check. He's a real good playmaker though, so this could pay huge dividends for the Rockets. James I like...he's a real tenacious defender, energetic player, and clutch scorer. He's going 100mph all the time and is fun to watch. Can score in bunches as well. -Dre

oh, you KNEW the Raptors simply had to get rid of Alston. I'm surprised it didn't happen much sooner, but not only is playing in Toronto kind of crappy anyway, but Alston clashing with Sam Mitchell was a terrible situation.
Good move for Toronto get something, as I like James too, but I am not sure that he's a 30+ minute point guard starter that I think Alston can be in the right place.

If Rafer, and this is a big if, if Rafer can avoid being a headcase like he was in Toronto and don't fight with JVG, good trade for Rockets.
Good trade for Raps to, Rafer was nothing but a distraction there.
