BREAKING: Dirk restructures contract again. Taking only 3 years/25 million

[Fudge]

Dirk is the shit!

ESPN sources say Dirk Nowitzki has taken bigger pay cut than previously thought. Deal finalized today at three years, $25 mil for Mavs lifer

[RoundMoundOfReb]

That might be the best contract in the NBA

[inclinerator]

damnit stop stealing all our money dirk

[Meticode]

Holy crap. $8.3 million a year for a 22/6 Hall of Famer? Steal.

[beastee]

The thing that cracks me up about this is how much ridiculous money this still is. 8 million + per year. I could never spend that much money. Good for Dirk being a good guy. He has made plenty of money and knows this is his last hurrah. Kobe's last hurrah....Bitch pay me!

[Milbuck]

Favorite player ever. Mavs are gonna do some serious damage this year if Chandler can stay healthy.

[Carbine]

He took a massive pay cut so the Mavs could let go Vince, but sign Parsons for twice as much as Dirk makes.

Good job, Mavs.

Good job, Mavs.

Yea...I said this earlier.

If he was going to take 8 a year roughly.

We could have added Thomas, Ariza, and another player potentially with the money left.

Depends on who we get now though...if we add a solid pg like Mo Williams or Jameer Nelson....it helps a lot.

he is probably going to be compensated in some other form, off the books. 'Gifts,' or perhaps a stake in the company.

[Skyscraper]

seriously, good for Dirk but he is setting a bad example


Cuban is not losing dough.

Most of the owners are not losing money.

The billionaires get richer while the millionaires have to take pay cuts?

TO us, that's like the CEOs getting pay raises while we workers lose out on our Christmas bonuses.

he is probably going to be compensated in some other form, off the books. 'Gifts,' or perhaps a stake in the company.

Or usually just a job with the team for life. He already gets everything basically for free, I'm sure. He is Dallas' son. He owns this town.

[jimmy77x]

Dirk has made over 200 million in his career. He's not a selfish fck like kobe.

[miles berg]

Turned down max offers from Houston & the Lakers.

#loyalty #mffl

That is some serious loyalty right there, taking over 50% less than what he could get. Wow
