lol Cubes gonna hook up Dirk so fat. Cubes is probably one of the only owners I'd trust to do this and not go back on his word.

If Indiana loses Lance I dont see any way they are better than those teams.

Evens on Indiana being a top 5 team in the east is free money.

Loyalty is part of this, but I think that the blue print is out there if you want to win a title.

Dirk's just doing everything he can to put Dallas in a spot to win a title and I am happy for him. Money isn't everything....plus yea i am sure there is a future hook up from cubes like said earlier.

It boggles me Dirk is going to make in 3 years what Kobe makes next year basically. Kobe helped make the Laker's now he's breaking them. Oh how I love it so much!

who was the last NBA team to have a true max out player and win a title? Miami's big 3 took pay cuts i know SA don't have a true max out...was it Dirk in Dallas or do we hvae to go back 5 to 10 years to even show a true max out player winning a title?

please any of the readers w/ better knowledge of the cap etc let me know

being a max out player is going to become the LOL of the NBA. Great your paid see you at the all star game and the first round of the playoffs if your lucky

Dallas is going to be a pretty easy team to root for.

Wait, why? Ariza was our second best player last year -- who is making up for that lost production? Even if PP and Otto Porter in conjunction match Ariza's production (seems unlikely), that still wouldn't mean they're improving. Is the thought that Beal is going to make a massive leap or something?

I've been really surprised by Washington's offseason in that they didn't shrug and overpay Ariza + Gortat and instead made some pretty smart signings, but I don't see how they're getting definitively better for 2015.

Though I think even KG restructured his deal when he got to the Cs to give a little flexibility, but it wasn't much and I think he was the highest paid player in the league in '08.

THanks for making my point Chi 0 titles Indiana 0 titles, LAC 0 titles, Cle 0 titles.
