Michael Redd was a DNP-CD in Wednesday's win over the Knicks. Coach Alvin Gentry was just paying a veteran respect when he said he could see Redd starting and playing 25-plus minutes per night. The reality is that Redd's torn up knees and 32-year-old body will prevent him from being an even average player at this point. Redd is shooting 23.8 percent in four appearances this season.
