How the Dallas Mavericks Ran OUT of Options After Celtics BEATDOWN | Cooper Flagg vs Jayson Tatum
The Dallas Mavericks suffered a tough loss to the Boston Celtics as the lack of guard depth and late-game offense doomed the Mavs, highlighting just how much they rely on Cooper Flagg and the absence of Kyrie Irving. This NBA postgame analysis dives into what this result means for the Dallas Mavericks’ season and what changes could be made in their guard rotation.
Nick Angstadt is joined by Slightly Biased to break down the Mavs’ performance, discuss Cooper Flagg’s injury scare, and look at how key role players like Klay Thompson, PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford, Naji Marshall, and Dereck Lively II impacted the game. The hosts also examine the Celtics’ energy with Jason Tatum’s return, compare bench and center rotations, and debate the upcoming challenges for Dallas in the NBA. The episode covers Moussa Cissé’s development, Max Christie’s contributions, and the impact of free throw disparities, while also touching on broader NBA news stories.

Luka has 22 in the first quarter. 22-4-3 and 5 for 5 from three point land. I really miss Luka in Dallas.
What have you seen from Moussa Cisse this season?
seeing Jayson Tatum on the court before kyrie hurts…..
offense is bottom of the league. same as always.
Help is on the way.
One more month of misery then the fun begins.
ROSTER BUILDING.
Mikel Brown, Swain, the return of Kyrie and Lively and one great free agent pickup, probably a defensive wing like
Smart, Dort or Grimes.
If the price is the same I’m hoping it’s
Quentin.
Good times on the way.
It all starts lottery day…..May 10th.
Good times.
Celtics took 15 FT Mavs had 12. The refs swallowed their whistle on both ends
Tatutm’s 😂
Yall channel ass now that Luka gone
It’s a lil depressing rn.. but we only going up from here.. add Add boozer, Kyrie, lively and some more shooting
Definitely would’ve converted Moose before Nembhard. 2 undersized guards on one team is too many.
Mavs have 3 years to convince cooper not to leave for Boston.
Trying to force Flagg to be Luka is showing how really bad Kidd is as a coach. Wonder what Kidd would have thought if his first coach in NBA played him at center? Same scenario. Kidd is lost. Let Flagg play the wing where he will be an All Star. Not at guard. Trying to force him to win ROY. Remember he missed the game winner against Magic then got dunked over for Magics last winning points.
Hope Dallas get some great draft picks man. This team is ahh. Coop needs help offensively.
You Luka girlfriends suck and have passed of the remaining loyal Fans, Flagg had AD, we were supposed to get LeBron James in the summer and Make Kyrie, Klay, Flagg, LBJ and AD starting 5 and you idiots ruined it, I'm not alone boycotting you, Dlls and the other Luka weirdos Dallas dosent know any of you
Yall really going to hate when coop has to come home eventually 😂😂😂the fact he had to say he loves the mavericks after the game is crazy asf
