It is anyone’s guess what type of team the Indiana Pacers want to be. They don’t attempt 3-pointers at a record pace. Their roster redundancy prevents them from being particularly versatile, they hold the ball too much, they routinely fall in and out of trust with each other, and their defense waxes and wanes. Making matters worse, their speed hasn’t been able to consistently compensate for any of these shortcomings. Instead, on the season, the Pacers are averaging a measly 0.07 more possessions than they did last season.
