Instead of minimizing others opinions, just share your opinions and accept that others may may not be of the same belief. And it certainly doesn’t help the discussion to say things like “we get it, you hate Kidd”.
Edit: This was not directed at you specifically Kidnova. It was just a reply to the bold portion of your post and the overall tone of the discussion.
Yup. I base my opinions on facts, not conjecture. If someone challenges me, I'm coming back with an avalanche of facts. Conjecture is fine, but again needs to be based upon facts. Conjecture should be reading between the lines of facts, not facts based upon conjecture. At any given time, I'll yield and admit to being wrong when proven to be. It's about getting it right, not being right.
This Wood thing grates on me because I see posters here simply parroting Kidd without really analyzing those repeated assertions. Bottom line is that Wood proven he should have either started or been 6th man. The fact that he wasn't isn't on him. Look at the 17 games he started. Facts prove that opinion.
