My guess is that Kidd is going to be here next season, and that he's possibly just playing this in a way where he can generate better contract conditions or try to increase his power in the organization somehow? But, that's just a guess.
I do agree with the Giannis angle Dan suggested. He and Giannis have a great relationship, and I could see that being applicable to a few parties from a few angles.
But, the takeaway for me is that this seems (so far) to be yet another example of the Mavs handling their business in a bizarre and less than artful way. The outward facing aspect of this franchise has deteriorated since Cuban sold the team, and that is something I'm not sure I could've imagined a couple of years ago.
