Time for Dirk to leave the Mavs

RJ + Scrubs for Dirk. rofl.

That would be a bad deal for us

If Dirk wants to get paid, he has to opt out, and either re-sign with Dallas or go elsewhere. The players will be locked out before the 2011 FA period, so whoever doesn't lock down now with a good deal will have to sign under the new CBA, and take MUCH less money.

This.

Dirk is bound to opt out this summer but it's no brain speculation that he'd accept MLE just for a ring's sake. the time is still too ing early for him to leech on someone while being underpaid. He will probably do that in a couple seasons when he turns 35 or some, then it'll be OK for him to earn a minimum on a champion team like Gary Payton did. He's definitely opting out come summer but 90% he will re-sign with the Mavs for another lucrative contract, because the teams with enough spaces are all rebuilding so the 32 year old is obviously not a better choice than the likes of Lebron, Wade, etc... and that no contender has the salary space for him.
