So what's the big story, exactly? Dirk would be frustrated if the roster isn't better next season, but he'll still be here? Newsflash?
I don't necessarily disagree that he will be here next year, seeing that he would still be under contract, but that is no guarantee under the context of his qualifier (competitive). He wouldn't throw out that qualifier if he wasnt clearly serious about playing for a competitive team. That leaves open the possibility he wont be here at the end of his contract while signing somewhere else, yes that would mean he is here next year. But, it also leaves open the possibility he would want to be traded to a competitive team after this offseason if...it stays status quo.
