Worth a read.

I actually made a similar suggestion a while back and think it is a decent notion. Even if we completely strike out on FAs in the off-season the plan can still work because Plan B can be to rebuild from scratch with a team full youth and Dirk gets paid for his sacrifices. Similar to the Kobe situation Dirk can get paid while the team rebuilds with rookies and youth when cap space doesn't mean anything. Cuban can shoot for the moon by trying to get two legit max players and if it doesn't work out then tear it down and Dirk can go out happy one way or another.

It makes perfect sense to me but agree with UnderDog that it probably won't happen.
