It is not that easy, imho. We didn't just let him go. We got expiring Johnson who (in theory) better fills our needs. He might come in handy against LA teams in playoffs. Besides, if you are rebuilding you can afford to put players in position to succeed, because you don't care about team success. Dallas was putting the team into position to succeed and Wright had to be the one who should adapt. He failed, imho.
Like with KP - would Mavs play better if our goal would be to maximize KP individual performance?
