    I know he won't but Mark Cuban should trade Dirk to a championship contending team this summer. Even if he doesn't get fair value back.

    Didn't he already have a shot with the Rockets?

    He played in 6 pre season games with the Rockets and was then cut. So I guess it's his second shot in the league, first on a regular season roster.

    Honestly, what is fair value for Dirk at this point? He played 49 games this season, and has averaged 14 and 7. Certainly still respectable numbers, but for an aging big, you're not going to get much of a return.

    He already got his ring, let him retire a Mav. That's a better legacy than stumbling around the outfield in a Mets uniform.

    They decided to dump Terrance Jones after 3 games.
