Carter doesn't seem to be the answer to me.

Nelson is a far better player than Alston. There is a good reason Alston is always on the move--he is a problem child. Vince is a far better scorer than Hedo. Still virtually unstoppable. That hasn't changed ever in his career. The knock on Vince remains that he just does not give a hoot and that was plain last year as in every year he has laced them up. He will score points for them no doubt whatsoever. But when it comes down to it and they need him to up his game will he?
