Dallas announced that they expect Dirk Nowitzki to opt out of his contract and become an unrestricted free agent. And Mark Cuban has been fined $100,000 for his comments about LeBron James. Seems that what he said violated the NBA anti-tampering rules. All he said was he would like to have James on his team. As much money as Cuban has paid in fines, he could have seen a lot of good providers.

Ever since Dal(ass) traded Steve Nash i've felt that they didn't have a clue what the hell they wanted to do.

The players they always add seem to be offensive-minded. They never look for anyone for defense and rebounding, two of their weakest areas.

with you both. Dirk should opt out! I could see him on another team, or playing with another allstar.

Mark only hires escorts to take on group trips for his guys. He elects to have a mistress and buys duplicate everything giving one to her and one to his wife.  He never has to remember who he has given what to which is safer.  Don't ask me how I know this.  

Mark get's fined just because he is Mark. Whatever.

It is benefecial to Dirk to go free-agent and then come back to the Mavs as he will get more money and not be constricted by some of the parameters that are in his current contract. I suspect Mark will try to do whatever it takes not to lose him as he tried to play that game once and lost Nash.  I doubt he will take that chance again.  Dirk is the face of the Mavs just as Mike Modano is/was for the Stars and he draws in the fans who in turn make Mark richer.  He knows a win/win when he sees it. lol
