Rafer Alston Skips Back Into Favor

Rafer Alston stopped looking over his shoulder and wondering when he would get pulled from the game. Instead he just played his game Tuesday night. Alston had become the fall guy for the struggles of the Orlando Magic in the first two games of the NBA Finals -- and rightly so -- so it was only fitting that much of the credit for the turnaround in Game 3 was directed at him, too. No one improved more in the Magic's 108-104 victory.
