This post is strange for two reasons: 1) because unless you used to post under a different user name, you weren't on this board during the 11/12 offseason, and 2) do you really believe that 1/3rd of the fanbase foresaw both Dwight and Chris Paul (who was also scheduled to be a free agent this summer at the time Dallas elected to offer Tyson only a short-term deal) opting into the final years of their respective contracts? Because that strikes me as an incredibly absurd claim.
