I think it's time to do the unthinkable

[AlexJones]

and trade Dirk. He deserves so much better but this is not me blaming Cuban and company for putting their chess positions in the spots they did the past few seasons.. They tried to put these Mavs into a position to not only win another championship with Dirk but to be reset in terms of building a winning team for years to come. I still believe 100% they pulled the right strings for the past few years but in life things just don't always pan out even if you do everything right.

Cuban is a smart man, he knows unless he catches lightning in the draft Dirk is his only true serious trading asset. It's a win/win for both clubs. We get value in return, while setting ourselves up to rebuild properly while we trade Dirk to a winning team with another shot at a ring. He deserves that much.

I did not enjoy typing this, it pained me but the truth hurts.

Frankly, I don't believe Dirk could impact away from the Mavs. He's like "Red" in Shawshank, he's an institutional man now. If you traded him, he may end up with a Library name after him and a short epitaph carved into some header in a cheap motel room in Beaumont or East Dallas...."Dirk was here, mein kampf was a too heavy."

But he never laid down to Houston just because he didn't have the stomach to battle the Celtics.

He's like Brooks, not Red

[Findog]

He signed a contract that has one more year on it. If the Mavs want him to play for them this year, then that's what he's obligated to do. I don't get all this "Dirk deserves better" stuff. He's a millionaire with a hot wife who won a championship playing for the only organization he's ever known. If he wants to chase another ring somewhere else for the 14-15 season, PLENTY of teams will be lining up to sign him. He'll be fine.

No, Red was reticent to accept Andy's invite because "I'm an institutional man now." Brooks had the Library named after him and it his epitaph. Red carved his emancipation proclamation above Brooks. Dirk would be Brooks if he's released/traded. If he stays he's Red because he's an institutional man/Mav.

I think it doesn't make much sense for dirk to coattail ride another team (like Miami) only to win one more title as the #3 or #4 guy on a strange squad. Dallas is like his 2nd hometown and he has already won a ring so I don't see why he has to be that desperate like the 04' Malone or 06' Payton tbh.

Exactly. Dirk is Leslie Neilsen, and Mark Cuban is the ship's owner's agent in "The Poseidon Adventure." The Poseidon is on it's way to be driven to port and scraped. A once grand vehicle it is just so much money on the scrap exchange, like the once proud Mav's franchise, run into the ground and now ready for the scrap yard because the ship's owner Cuban has rushed it to it's ruination. Now the Captain (Dirk) has to bear witness as a 50 foot tidal wave and Shelley's Winter fat ass is going to make the ship founder and capsize, thus the blessed gravity of God enables Stella Steven's pure white panties to be inaugurated into her sweet little blow hole.

Bon voyage.

The Heat will gladly take another superstar if you don't mind. That is if you want Dirk to win another title. :)

Watch out though...Too many superstars on one team and '04 or '13 might happen again.

Dirk is Captain Stubing. Monta is Isaac, the bartender. Carlisle is Doc. Cuban is Gopher, tbh.

Dirk would join the Heat ony so he could purposely tank in the playoffs, ruin their threepeat hopes, and lay the pipe to Wade & LeBron one last time. He'd sooner massage Avery's ballsack while he's finishing in Dirk's hot new wife than help Miami win. He'd probably enjoy killing Miami from the inside more than he enjoyed curbstomping them as competition in 2011.

Cuban, please trade Dirk to the Heat.

didnt dirk give up a max contract last 1-2 years for cubans to rebuild if he opted out?
