Toyota center has gotten more crowded this week , with scola , mike james , steve francis , steve novak , kirk snyder , mike harris , chuck hayes , rafer alston and aaron brooks all working out 丰田中心这几天太拥挤了，斯科拉，詹姆斯，弗朗西斯，诺瓦克，斯耐德，哈里斯，海耶斯，阿尔斯通，布鲁克斯都在训练体能。
Role players like shane battier and rafer alston also will thrive under adelman , who previously groomed the likes of doug christie , jerome kersey , bobby jackson , and peja stojakovic into quality nba players 角色球员，诸如巴蒂尔和阿尔斯通等人也会在他手下有所作为，他曾经将克里斯蒂、凯西、博比杰克逊和佩贾等人培养成联盟中的优秀球员。
But his finest moments were on the defensive end where on consecutive possessions he blocked an jamison 3 , sending rafer alston on his way to a particularly slick fast break , and then suffocated caron butler until he took a 24 - second violation 不过他的最佳表现是在防守端的连续表演，他盖掉了贾米森的三分球，助攻阿尔斯通打出一个流畅的快攻，紧接着他又封锁了巴特勒造成对手24秒进攻违例。
There are other reasons for what looks to be a big season in houston ? the point guard combo of rafer alston and mike james , the usual defense and hustle from battier , and newcomer luis scola , a 27 - year old rookie forward who made a name for himself on argentina ' s national team 除此之外，还有几个因素预示着今年火箭可能有一个辉煌的赛季：后场上阿尔斯通和詹姆斯的搭档；巴蒂尔稳定而具侵略性的防守；当然还有在国际赛上表现抢眼的阿根廷打前锋斯科拉的加盟。
This was a night when rafer alston had 18 points and 10 assists , when luther head had 22 points and was actually seen attacking the basket , when bonzi wells came off the bench to deliver 17 and 8 boards , when shane battier struggled through a horrid start and made three critical 3 - pointers to keep fanning the flames alive 这一夜，阿尔斯通18分10助攻；海德狂砍22分，攻篮很成功；威尔斯替补上场，抢17分8板，巴蒂尔开场表现稀烂，但关键时刻贡献了3个3分，让火箭的进攻火焰燃烧得更猛。
