I’m not buying all the Wes Matthews hype that the Pacers are desperately trying to sell.
The Pacers’ signing is a great short-term move to stay alive in the race for the three seed in the Eastern Conference. But when looking at the team’s long-term goal of winning a championship, I don’t see the value in the signing.
Once Victor Oladipo got hurt the goal of the team changed. Indiana went from hoping to be the dark horse candidate to win the East to a team that had too many wins to tank and too many veterans with no time to trade them away.
