The other teams you mention have one of their 2 bigs who can be a shot blocker and or at least a mobile big who also switch and recover. Maybe McGee and Wood have that capability but we will never ever know. I would have still tried it. We spent years watch RC cater and counter other teams lineups instead of forcing adjustments. Kidd didn't even try. He fulfilled the minimal version of McGee starting but never ran another actual big along side and apparently we still don't have the data that tells him we are baaaaad at rebounding.

Kidd would rather play Bullock, THJ, or Holiday at the 4 than give McGee or Morris some minutes.
