Well, one of the three players coming from Orlando is VERY happy to be here. Rafer Alston, who won his streetballing nickname "Skip to My Lou" on Queens asphalt, was in emotional overdrive. He told the media he appreciates the Nets' heritage and will take care of any residual shock Courtney Lee is feeling. Working with Devin Harris, Alston says, will be easy. "Our job is to get the team to achieve." Okay then.
