Yes, you are reading me correctly. I believe that Cuban wouldn't have made the moves. So that's why I lump the three acquisitions together and tie them to Dirk. I also think that players talk and send messages to one another about "the plan" and I'm convinced Dirk and Chandler were talking before that trade happened. I can't prove it, but I believe that's how a lot of deals get done. They did win a title together after all.
