This may have just been a rumor, but wasn't their mention of Dirk voicing his displeasure during the Brad Miller/Steve Nash trade talks? I remember reading something along the lines that Dirk talked to Mark Cuban and told him that if he was going to trade Steve, he might as well trade him too. Its my perception that Dirk would never demand a trade, but I do remember hearing this tidbit floating around, unless I have my rumors completely mixed up.

very plugged in with Donnie Walsh's Pacers front-office...
