Dirk should dip

The Dallas Mavericks are making history left and right. So why is their franchise forward Dirk Nowitski contemplating the free agent market this summer? Easy...it's all the wrong history. A history that overshadows Nowitski's brilliant twelve year career with Dallas. The Mavericks became the first team in NBA history to lose in the first round of the playoffs as a number one seed and number two seed since the first round went to seven games. The Mavericks are also the first team to win at least fifty games for ten consecutive years without winning a title. All under Nowitski's watch, all in his prime. I give owner Mark Cuban credit for attempting to surround Dirk with the talent to bring Dallas a championship, but it just hasn't worked. Avery Johnson didn't work. Jason Kidd didn't work. For all of Cuban's efforts, it's just not working. If Nowitski has a true desire to become a champion he must leave. Dirk, my man, you should dip. Lebron James is not coming to Dallas. Neither is Dwyane Wade. Now it's time for Dirk to think about himself and his legacy. You can either be Patrick Ewing or John Stockton, loyal to the end but never getting it done. Or you can be Clyde Drexler, Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen, three long time franchise players who took on lesser roles with different teams late in their careers and cemented their legacies with championship rings. The choice is yours Dirk, I think you should dip.
