It´s hard to judge Kidd´s comments and behaviour without knowing the directive of the front office. His comments are in line with a coach told that they are sitting out Luka/Kyrie for the rest of the year and plan on tanking into a top 10 seed.
Kidd had different expectations going into the season and certainly when they traded for Kyrie. Given that he´s also a former player with a win at all costs attitude, and not a younger coach like Daigneault or Hardy, that understand the whole approach of roster building and asset management, I can easily see this him being annoyed about the instructions he´s been given. That could explain his sarcastic attitude and general boredom perfectly.
If this is him, while Luka/Kyrie are legitimately hurt, and the directive is still trying to win this year, then I´d say his behaviour and comments are a lot stranger.
