D12 can't leave $30 mil on the table. He has too many mouths to feed and it'll probably be the last max contract he'll ever receive.

The 30mil is just cause of an extra year in the contract. Dwight can always get it anyway on his next contract.

This is about as likely to happen as Scarlett Jo caling me to arrange a threesome with her and Jessica Alba.

That's what was said when this happened.




Cp3 and Dwight have been itching to play together for a long time.

[r15mohd]

Replace Houston with Dallas, and Harden with Dirk...that's more doable IMO. Dallas-Miami duels, just like the Chicago-Utah series in the 90s

Make it happen Cuban!

Smith : I got nothing better to do

James Harden: Welcome to Htown my bros, lets get to work

Houston/OKC vs Miami in the Finals for the foreseeable future.

Fixed.

Very possible. Cuban could get rid of Marion's contract easily to make space to sign both of them.

yup...and Dallas is no LA or NY, but it is a really popular city and very sports-crazed town. my feeling is Cuban pulls it off, he didn't sign many of these guys to 1-year deals for nothing this past season, and he fights relentlessly for what he wants with the Mavs. One of the better owners, though annoying, in the NBA.

Dirk's contract is substantially higher than Harden's next season

[jzek]

add lbj to that mix in 2014

[r15mohd]

Dirk's contract is substantially higher than Harden's next season

Even with Dirk's contract...Cuban has no issue shelling out cash to bring in players, doubt Houston is willing to do this and go over the luxury tax

however Houston does have more pieces to work with...they can do a three team deal with both LA's...CP3 for Lin, Asik for Howard and expirers (unsure of player trade restrictions)

[chazzy]

Strong understanding of the CBA
