Might as well just kick Dirk in the nuts, take his money and leave...
EDIT: then there's this:
I'm catching a whiff of Benedict Arnold here, but maybe he's just star-f*cking? |
I think it's just "star-f*cking" as you said haha. He clearly talked about Dallas in a positive manner earlier and later in that article. He's just been in situations where he felt like he was close or on the verge of being right in the title race...he just wants to get over that hump.
Plus, all he really said is 73 games is possible, he didn't say the trophy was landing in South Beach. For me, I actually think the record isn't out of the realm of possibilities. Think about it, Miami was ALREADY a playoff team when it was just Wade. LeBron with "junk" won 60 games back to back years. I'm not saying it's going to happen, but I can see it.
