I think Kidd would help them get somewhere in the playoffs. They have a lot of talent.
But I don't think he's going anywhere, because the new draftee and Flagg (and Nemby too) need the same thing. I think Kidd is super valuable for that.
I don't really have a feel for what Majiri or Kidd want in the short term, though we do know Kidd has ambitions above coaching. If he is "forced" to coach in the short term, you'd have to wonder if he would prefer to be with a team much closer to contention which might make the Magic more attractive for him. That's a big might as I don't think we have anything tangible to go by.
