They were good stats. With that being said, I am not sure he will be a good starter for a good team. I think he is probably a really good bench piece. I think.
I think Dallas picked Christie over him. Whether that was because Christie had the cost controlled contract or because he was a part of the Luka trade, I do not know. Although, Dallas picked Christie over Grimes. I don't think there is room for both. Although maybe minus Klay there could be. Regardless desptite his solid play in Dallas it never felt like Kidd was ever a true believer. We will see.
I mean, he already was a quality starter on a good team in his second year in the league. I think Max has a long way to go to get to Grimes level offensively. I do agree that he has too much overlap with Klay (who is not going anywhere).
But the thing is, he has now gone through four teams that he has not been able to come to terms with. That is a really bad red flag.
