Dirk's already played on an uptempo Dallas squad with Nash, Finley, and Bradley. In all Maverick combinations, regardless of the roster, the team sorely lacked defense in playoff situations and thus, folded all the time. It time it's time to accept the face that Nowitzki will never win a title without first being on a defense mainly squad with him as the 2nd or 3rd scoring option. That being said, given the fact that he's only 31, he should go for the money now (i.e. Dallas) and join either Houston or Boston, during his twilight years (after 33) as a sixth man.
