Dallas should keep flagg and trade irving and AD for top picks….go the other way, id trade Klay Thompson for Dalton Kinnect…shooters
You absolutely do not trade Cooper Flagg for a guy that's going to cost you close to what Luka cost
I agree i would keep flag
mavs gotta get Cooper… there's no way Nico H would make another stupid move and kill his career
Valid point , Flagg might not get to play in Dallas which can shirt his development.
So he’s 19 and losing hair?
Giannis should go to orlando
The guy on the left sounds so uneducated,he’s hard to listen to,please replace him.
If you can get Giannis you get Giannis
At this point, Luka gotta crash the AAC next game and do a turning heel promo
Just fold all non big market franchises. Thats what the leauge wants
Lmfao you take giannis. No team is scoring on AD and GA. GA will eat cooper. Giannis is a generational talent .
I feel Cooper Flagg is going to be a BUST, he reminds me of Michael Beasley.
Who’s the white dude acting like bucks got leverage in the trade lmao
giannis , kyrie, AD , thats a big payroll, you can only have two big contracts so there enough money for 8 other solid players . if you really want to go for giannis trade away AD to many injuries, giannis, kyrie, flag, clay and lively, this is a scary line up.
You wish, Mavs would have considered this trade prior to receiving the first pick, but now? Not a shot.
Why is nobody questioning how Giannis and AD would even fit on the same team that already has a center assuming that AD would move to the 5 with Giannis at the 4. Also AD prefers playing at the 4
These guys are morons, just keep the pick
Why are they hating on Cooper Flagg? 5 years?
Although I agree that tanking is wrong, I still think the bad teams deserve the best new players. How else do you expect those teams to ever get better if they never get great picks?
still please "FIRE NICO!"…Let's give him a 1.8% chance of not being fired and see what happens
Dallas she trade Anthony Davis (role player, 1st round pick) for Giannis Giannis wants to win now but Kyrie has injury issues.
If the NBA is fixed so are the NFL and MLB.
draft cooper, you will get his talent without gutting your roster.
I can't take the NBA seriously at this point 😂 As a Mavs fan, there should be no way in hell we get the #1 pick or a lottery pick.
Seems like the lottery just makes it easier for silver to rig the results
Rigged moments.
Haslem is a good analyst. I have no idea why Malika andrews is employed😊.
Wow that would work for both teams.
Mavs getting: Giannis
Bucks getting: 1st Pick Flagg, Washington, Klay, Hardy, Martin, Proper, Powell
Bucks could rebuild for the next years and develop Flagg to a star plus getting solid role players with short contracts. They also could trade Lillard to get more Picks and young talent .
Mavs could compete for the next 3-4 years if staying healthy.
Starting 5: Kyrie, Christie, Giannis, Davis, Lively
Bench: Gafford, Marshall, Dinwiddie, Exum plus Free Agents
These analysts are Horrible why would trade the number 1 pick. Cooper Flagg. This kid can play. Giannis is talented buy he’s always hurt. Haslem sounds stupid you come in to play and compete. Ad, Kd he gonna get playing time. They can play but they always hurt. He is going to play
The media needs to move on just let it go !
Can Giannis win a title in Dallas any more than he can with the Bucks?
He will be a star right away. He is being underestimated. He is a clear #1. Clear. THE WHITE FLAGG will be flying in Dallas!
Mavs don't need Giannis. So stop trying to force the narrative. Everyone needs to accept the fact that Mavs are getting Flag. Just stop it.
I think the NFL should have a 5 team lottery for the worst 5 teams, during SB halftime. 40% for worst record,, 23% for 2nd, 17% for 3rd,, 12% for 4th, 8% for 5th. Or a 4 team, 40, 30, 20, 10 % chance.
Haslem and JWill has a point, Pointless. Yhe other dude is right. Giannis salary is big that you need to gut out the roster. Maybe if they trade AD's contract for Giannis but a pick for Giannis is much worse than fitting Flagg in the Mavs roster.
Maybe a SAS trade
1st pick (Flagg)
for
2nd pick (Harper) + Castle
Harper + Castle + Fox would be a logjam.
I'm a Mavs fan but Naji's celling is not as high as Flagg.
These are some of the worst NBA takes
The NBA is trash. Any player who leaves his team in his prime to go create a superteam will always be remembered as an overrated superstar. This is the soft era of basketball where the NBA made it easier for the offensive player because the defense is restricted from playing defense. Yet, these so called superstars still have less championships than Magic, Duncan, and Kobe.
Udonis need to shut up
Udonis Haslam and Jay Williams dumb af. Like why would the Mavs trade the pick for Giannis?! We would have to gut the majority of the roster just to make the numbers work in the trade. Also Giannis could opt out in 2 years. Yea naw, way too risky. Mavs should draft Flagg and keep it pushing
