Hopefully, Carter's shooting will come around; he is now 9 for 29 in two games, including 3 of 16 on three pointers.
An off night for Nelson, too, but the more he plays this preseason, the better he should get.
Anthony Johnson did a nice job off the bench with 4 points, 4 assists, and 2 blocks. This is going to be a good competition between AJ and Jason Williams to see who gets the backup PG spot.
With Rashard Lewis not playing, nice game by Anderson, who should get a lot of playing time the first ten games with Lewis's suspension.
I had to look twice at the box score when I noticed that Redick had two blocked shots!
