My final statement on Christian Wood for a while: I don't care what anyone says. If Kidd would have played a Luka - Kyrie - Green - Maxi - Wood lineup big minutes, they would have made the playoffs. That being said, with what they were able to do this offseason, I am glad that they did not make the playoffs.
At the time I was all for that 17m/yr extension. I didn't believe the front office could do so well with limited assets and I didn't know about the new CBA. I'm glad they let him go now that I see what we have.
Long story short, I am probably the biggest believer in the current roster here. To the point where I need to get Tim Hardaway out of here for nothing if they have to in order to make room for other players. I wish Wood well and think he is in a great situation in LA.
Yeah I absolutely hated the way that Kidd handled the entire situation but like you I'm glad we didn't end up paying Wood big money
Now we just have to worry about who will be Kidd's newest enemy. Will he have some weird, irrational hatred of Grant Williams? That would suck
