Im not saying he is not being honest now, but he did move from a position of trusting the FO to now openly doubting and questioning them so whats stopping him from moving further to what was unthinkable before. It is completely out of character for Dirk to say anything directly negative about the front office in public so I think this is a big deal with the potential for Dirk to change his mind again because he hates losing and decides its in his best interest to say please trade me or just I am retiring at the end of 2014 or even just signing elsewhere at the end of 2014. To me, the potential is there depending on the outcome of this offseason.
I get why you and others are just taking him at his word now, but his word has changed. Why cant it change again for the previously unthinkable?
