Dirk obviously doesn't have faith in Cuban or Nelson because he told Kidd he'd be better off signing with the Knicks and now he's hinting at retirement: “If we really come out with nobody this summer then maybe they want to rebuild and, obviously, I’m too old for that. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens on that front.”

I'll wait to see what happens. Are we contenders? Not a chance. Are we good enough to be at least in the running for the 8th spot? I think we could be. It will be a miracle to make the playoffs, but the West isn't that strong.

On the upside, I bet a lot of GM's are looking at our team and thinking "I wouldn't mind having their picks all of a sudden" LOL

i put SA, OKC, LAL, LAC, Memphis, Houston, Denver ahead of us with Sac and a couple of others probably as good or better than us. i wouldn't project us to finish somewhere in the 10 to 12 range in the west

I don't know about HOU, but would put Minny up there potentially.

dude, Howard and Paul aren't coming here. We all know it.

Howard is going to a team built to win and so is CPIII and Dallas isn't built for anything right now but for the lottery

forget the kaman part........but i like our chances to make the play-offs

think we win against lakers and clinch the 8th spot down the stretch

dirk is finally getting into his usual form and we have what the 7th best overall record since the ASB

not sure we can take the spurs but i bet we make it interesting (hope we shock the world) :D

Mavs next few moves will be interesting. They look like a 35 win team as of today.

They certainly have a lot of small guards on the roster. Not sure why they won the championship with a really big team and then completely overhauled their roster to where their biggest weakness is a complete lack of size. The only way this team goes north of 41 wins is if Dirk plays at an MVP level and plays virtually every game. This team looks like a team designed to fast break, play fun style ball and just sell tickets rather than actually compete. It is certainly a strange turn of events.
