Nowitzki, Mavs Begin Talks On Extension

[MainEv3nt]

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said Monday that the team has opened discussions with Dirk Nowitzki on a possible contract extension.

 

Nowitzki has the option to terminate the final year on his contract if he does so by July 1.

 

Cuban would not elaborate on whether a three-year extension might already be on the table.

 

Under the current collective bargaining agreement, a three-year deal is the most Dallas could offer.

 

The maximum value would be $75 million.

[Check my Stats]

They should be offering him the max, because if he goes to FA that is what he is getting.

[The Truth]

I think it would be the wrong decision for him to stay in Dallas. they're already the oldest team in basketball and I don't see them becoming a true title contender. Dirk needs to play alongside a dominant center who can help him on the boards.

Wrong that is the Spurs

It wouldn't be a bad idea to trade Dirk at this point, though it seems crazy the Mavs could get a lot for him and at this point they need anything they can get.
