Javale McGee left the Mavs the first time as guy that looked talented on one hand but didn't fit in Dallas system under Rick Carlisle.
He left Dallas and went on to contribute meaningfully to 3 NBA championships, so its hard to put him in same category as Wood, even if this Dallas coaching couldn't make a fit for him.
Yeah, I think the Mcgee issue is different from the Wood issue. I only have body language to go off of, but it seemed to me like there were multiple times when McGee did stupid stuff on the court that Luka glanced at the coaches with a WTF look. I wonder if the urgency to dump him was about Luka having issues with him. It didn't help that he wildly underperformed as well.
