Michael Redd returned from a massive struggle with two knee surgeries on Thursday, and played decently with 12 points on 4-of-9 shooting (including three treys) with no rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 19 minutes. As nice as the ball looked going through the hoop, we're not all that excited here. Aside from his wincing whenever he had truly open it up, Redd was the beneficiary of some really bad defense and we doubt he can sustain more than 20 minutes per night. Maybe he'll prove us wrong, but we feel good betting against it.
