Fix?
Tonight was another example that the Mavs are LIGHT YEARS AWAY FROM BEING “FIXED” 😂

Omg bro we're still pushing the narrative that Boozer will be the #1 pick…..
It's not happening in fact if he reclassified last year with Flagg I don't even think people would take him over Flagg…. Certainly not over Dybansta or Peterson
I don't get the fixation with pushing this narrative, don't get me wrong he's gonna be a good player in the league with good longevity (Certainly would have a better career than his dad ever did barring injuries) but there's a reason why he's getting compared to guys like Kevin Love or Domantas Sabonis, He's going to be a really good perennial all star but he's not a franchise mover nor does he have the upside to do it. Let's just give this a rest LoL
The habit is really good
I feel bad yall still have to watch this trash ass team.
Slightly having Schlotzsky's over for guys and shake shack changed my view on him as a person
Was Cooper the 10th (!) best player on the floor today? -35? Is this the worst plus/minus game this season?
Damn. I miss the glory years when during losses, we still had the definitive best players on the floor with Dirk and Luka.
Better get a 1A this draft or hope that Kyrie returns next season at least as a 1B.
Boozer gives me Banchero vibes. Really good player. But if paired with a guy like Flagg/Wagner who cant shoot to save his life, the offense will probably be stagnant.
I take Dybantsa and Peterson over him.
I keep saying it. Cooper is not Luka. Luka can carry a franchise. He is a true generational player. Luka, quite frankly, is the closest person I have ever seen to Larry Bird. I never thought I would see another player like Bird, but there he is in Luka. Luka dribbles better, too. Flagg is not that type of player. Flagg will have a long career and make lots of money, but he is not enough to elevate this franchise. I am not sure what the answer is at this point. Just for the love of Goodness, please not another forward!
Boozer reminds me of Paolo in Orlando. A good player, but not a guy I want taking a last shot. What I am looking for is a player who I think gives a true chance to win every night. Again, I hate to go back to Luka as an example, but frankly, you could take 4 guys from my LA Fitness and add Luka, and I swear, that team would still have a chance of winning. That is what Luka did as a player. Which player in this year's draft is like that?
People said Flagg is a better Rookie than Luka….YIKESSSSS
At 3rd-4th, I'm starting to lean on Caleb Wilson. you cant beat 2 elite defensive players with Coop and Caleb and both can be great offensive players. 4th is Boozer, 5th Acuff 6th Flemmings 7th Wagler (unless they win it all)
Boozer doesn’t look good ngl
Nothing from his game looks like it will translate well to the NBA. Post forward big that isn’t good in the post and isn’t really good from 3. Idc about 40%. DFS is shooting DFS and rockets refuse to play him cuz of his streak play. I don’t believe in his play making either. I just wouldn’t draft him #1 another Paolo (which isn’t good)
Cooper is going to be fine. He works on his game. He'll get much, much stronger. He's 19 and the season takes a toll even on grown ass men. Cooper will make a great second year leap.
Mavs a lottery team for a loooong time to come…Flagg is so soooo far away from Luka at his age ..😢
BIG SHOUT OUT TO SLIGHTLY COMIN THRU!!!
nobody is saying boozer is the obvious number 1 pick 😂 unless you haven't watched the top 5
Honestly, you take what you need the most. Not necessarily the best available.
Unless you think that player is generational.
All drafts are this way.
You take based on need.
And since we have the what, 7 pick?
🤷
Acuff or Burries
You want a Boozer get Yaxel lendeborg. I think Yaxel is going to be better than Booz..
We need to get Flagg a big scoring wing. If theres anyway to get Yaxel and Caleb lets do it.
If were for sure going to get a guard. get the best one Brown jr.
😂❤
