After flirting with a 70 mil contract, the Mavs decided he did not have the right mental makeup and did not to invest in him long term. He went on to be a fringe NBA player as a defensive specialist and never made close to what that contract would be. Noel thought too highly of himself and the Mavs rightfully backed away.
Maybe Wood is a different case but the Noel situation is more a cautionary tale for Wood than for the Mavs.
Read the room, Mark.
It´s me. Are you trying to convince ME of all people that this whole Noel mess was a win/good decision from the Mavs FO, just because Noel turned down the 70/4 extension offer.
