Dirk Nowitzki anyone?

Dirk Nowitzki has two seasons remaining on his contract and also a no-trade clause. But with the Mavericks unable to land Deron Williams after not re-signing Tyson Chandler, the question is whether Nowitzki has enough time remaining to endure a rebuild.
"I’m not sure," Nowitzki said when asked the question in May. "I’ve always said I want to finish my career here and obviously the championship season topped it all off; that’s what I always was chasing and dreaming about so that kind of sealed that deal on that front. If we really come out with nobody this summer then maybe they want to rebuild and, obviously, I’m too old for that. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens on that front. But I still think I got two, three good years left in me and if we get some players in here we can be right back up there and compete."

The Mavericks are going to have to rebuild after not getting Howard or D-Will. Should the Pacers make an attempt to get Nowitzki. The Pacers are trying to contend for a championship and this dude could possibly be available soon and good enough to get the team over the Miami Mountain. I personally think his experience and clutch scoring could possibly get the Pacers a championship. Maybe an offer of Granger and/or West and some 1st round picks; Thoughts?
