IMO if the only way to get Dirk is give up two late firsts a contending team will do it.

2) Salary makes things really hard to just flip Dirk to the Warriors

If they have the cap space to chase Durant they have to cap space to absorb Dirk in a SNT

3) Warriors aren't winning two consecutive rings in 17 and 18

Moot point, it's completely feasible.

4) Dirk likely doesn't have three years more left to play

It's up to Dirk, KG is still kicking and his game doesn't translate nearly as well

5) Dirk is already a champion and a future hall-of-famer. He also doesn't want to go to the Warriors

Again, it's up to Dirk. Does he want to play with a bunch of scrubs? If our plan is to wait on Whiteside and Conley and we lose out on Parsons in the process then Dirk will not want to be here.

6) why wouldn't Dirk just hold out inking his deal until after we take a dip into free agency?

My point exactly. If after FA we come up with nothing why would he want to be here?
