    Don't care, Nitwitski. Go smoke a cuban with Cuban and chill out.

    Yeah, enjoy your time with the team who played more games than the Rockets this year, Dirk.

    He is at least loyal. Can't fault him for being that. I think Rockets made an offer.

    I am not the biggest Mavs or Dirk fan so I would take a look at him if he were willing. So now I think the Rockets and Dirk are done.

    Are they really that paranoid of us that questions like this appear?

    I can see him doing that, actually.
    The guy probably has enough money already, and feels the Mavs have done right by him throughout the years.
    IIRC, the Mavs did a great job standing by and helping Nowitzki through that weird pregnancy scandal in 2009. I can't remember where but I remember reading about how he really appreciated the way the organization came to his aid.
    Things like that probably means a lot to Nowitzki, and probably most people.

    Would love to have Dirk on the Rockets. He may be old, but he's a superior player than anyone else on here.

    Na, would rather invest in the upcoming Duncan or Dirk

    Davis.......all about upcoming talents... Kawhi Leonard showed it

    Kawhi can be Manu's replacement in a big 3 but once Duncan retires the Spurs aren't true contenders for a while, maybe very long while.

    Lol, at the sentimentality. 2>1 not to mention 4 Finals appearances to just 2 for Dirk. And Dirk got to see Cuban sell off his team into mediocrity immediately following his only ring.

    I think Dirk has left enough in his tank to make one or two runs at the championship at best

    But I want not 1, not 2 but 3 championships!
