I feel like this is a really deliberate attempt to build something like the Spurs, where if Duncan's off, not a big deal because Parker and Manu are good enough to win it on their own (as shown last night). Avery wants JET, Josh, and to some extent Devin to be able to win a game without Dirk.
That's just my theory, of course, for all I know, Dirk's really past his prime.
