Smart franchises don’t let emotional attachment get in the way.
I don't think THJ got his contract because of emotional attachment. The dude was an integral player and the only consistent (well compared to the others) scorer in the playoffs. He regressed a lot. There are a lot of reasons. But the THJ of the last 2 years absolutely deserved that money AND would be a key offensive player on this team if he could score.
I agree that the Mavs need to move off his money though. I don't see him returning to the same player under Kidd. But I don't think Cuban is just handing 70+mil away because he likes a guy personally.
