    Between Shaq, Kobe and Paul Pierce wanting to come over, the Mavs really were a hip franchise during the early to mid 00s.

    We could have had kobe and dirk at their absolute peaks playing off each other…and that’s why ignorance is bliss, kids.

    Wonder if in this alternate universe heā€™s still alive. Mavs become a dynasty and he lives a long life. What a timeline!

    Dirk with 2 or 3 rings. Potential 2011 Kobe vs LeBron showdown. Fuuuuuuuuq

    Obviously was the right call for the Lakers not to make that deal, but holy crap Dallas wouldā€™ve for sure won at least 3 rings with Dirk, Kobe, and Harris/Kidd as the Big 3

    Would’ve been amazing, but Dirk’s 2011 run as the superstar slayer will forever be enshrined thanks to his solo act.
