Why do people think Wes Matthews is still good?


He may no longer be good, but he's also not bad and is better than any guard we have now besides Holiday. If he were on a 4 year deal at $18 per I wouldn't be interested, but he's on a 2 year deal with the 2nd year being a player option he could opt out of. Considering the available options he's a good stop gap solution, especially if the cost is Omer Asik.

Yeah, it's just about trading Asik's useless dollars for somewhat useful dollars. That's about it.

Stop gap with what in mind for the future? At what point do we stop having to have stop gaps? This is getting so ridiculous that we cannot build any traction year to year

Yea If it means getting rod of Osik sure. But Matthews has not been good since his Achilles and I was mainly talking about people in this thread acting like he'd be a coup for us.

so you'd rather have Asik for 3 more years doing nothing, or Matthews for 2 more years?
He's not what he used to be, but he's still a good player. Not like we are asking him to be our #1, or #2, or even #3 guy.
