Everyone cried for wood to get more minutes. Well he did. They had 3 guys put up 20+ and still lost
It's not because of who starts or who finishes games
It's not because of who kidd prefers
The cold hard reality is these dudes just don't want to play both ends of the floor
They want to get their shots up but they don't want to play with the same energy when it comes to defending someone

But if the team has given up on defense and FTs, then that means the coach has lost the team.
You are making the point that Kidd is definitely the problem. When players stop trying, then it's on the coaching.
And although it doesn't seem like it, the offense is just as much of a problem. You're running Luka to death while hoping that Spencer and THJ shoot well. And you're not starting your best center to alleviate it.
Did you ever go to basketball camps as a kid? Mavs aren't doing 101 stuff right now.
Never been more sure that it is coaching in all of my life.
