You may be right about the position of the Pacers. I hate when players are just as opposite of Dirk as possible. " I know I have a little leverage and I'm willing to hear the boos at home games because I need to exploit the situation, because I am owed an easier chance at a ring". This may be harsh given that I don't know exactly what he has said or how he feels, and slightly to his credit...him going to the Lakers doesn't start a superteam by any means.
