Like Cleveland did this morning, Orlando just added a piece they feel will make them the team to beat in the Eastern Conference. Carter is always erratic as a three point shooter, but he is still a very, very effective player in this league. With Jameer Nelson coming back from injury, Alston really wasn’t needed. I’m sure they hate to lose someone has young and talented as Courtney Lee, but from my view it is a very fair deal for both teams.
