Also interesting that he also mentioned Seth running the second unit. I really am starting to get a bad feeling for those who want to see Hardy get big minutes this season.
I can imagine Cuban trying to sell a Luka and Kyrie on trying to recruit a third star in free agency in the summer of 2025.
Unfortunately, this would likely be used as an excuse to let Josh Green walk this coming summer.
It's a terrible approach and I hope we don't really try this again after failing at it for more than 10 seasons.
Also, it will be very depressing if Kidd plays Seth Curry more minutes than Jaden Hardy. I do expect he'd ultimately become frustrated with Seth's defense and move onto Hardy or Exum as the top guard off the bench.
Preseason starts in a week and we'll actually have some understanding of Kidd's plans once we can see some actual basketball.
