Should the Mavs trade for Ja Morant or stay away?
Wow. Not even 10 games in, and the Mavs need to make trades?? 😂😂😂 Also. Cooper may be out of position, but overall he's not as talented as you guys imagined him to be. Luka and LA won again last night tho
Seeing Isaac Harris's face full of makeup doesn't help you subscriptions to be honest, along with every thing else. He should go back to dead end Mavericks official podcast where no one wanted to listen to his boring ass in an official capacity
First off: love your work!
But I feel like you actually are to negative. Take the Detroit game. We are arguably missing our top 3 guys and have a close game against a mid tier team. Take away the top 3 player of any team and see if they compete at all…
Second as a possible improvement: can you always take a minute to update on injuries? It’s always interesting to know who we can expect to play the next game
Cooper being 18 doesn’t matter, he has to make some development leaps. As I said yesterday he won’t make leaps as Giannis or Wemby but with all the hype he has to be the best player in this draft in 3 years.
imagine having luka and not being envious of any other young superstars outside of wemby to having discussions about ways to get ja
Hold on, the Cooper excuses have to STOP. Kobe did not play much at all at 18. Howard wasn't a scorer. Cooper closer to 19 as well. He's not that good. Enough already
i really miss both of u Nick and Isaac….
i hope u can do a pod together with slightly when luka win his first ring in LA
in all serious we are MFFL but a die hard luka fan
The asking price will start with Lively, PJ, a #1, and whatever else to make the salaries match.
After how they treated Luka, I would be surprised if any big name player would be interested in going to the Mavs
I have given up hope on this team little by little untill nico is fired
How about we fire nico?
This is a great show and i watch faithfully but to say you wouldn't take Ja Morant is idiotic, yall said the same thing about the leader of the team Kyrie now all yall do is sing his praise guys repond different in certain environments and around coaches they respect or know the struggle of the NBA
Edgecombe and Harper have both been better than Flag so far.
7:35 that sounds like a time-limit to me.
Aka you got a season or two at most, if that happens when Kyrie is back and if AD is not injured.
Then you wake up in like 2027. and you got two aged veterans that are not fully healthy ever, a rebellious fake hood Tik tok/Insta/ shorts super star thats approaching 30 physically not mentally, and a bunch of confused pieces around Flagg the point guard that never truly developed as he could have.
Trade AD, Flagg and all of our draft picks for Luka. IDGAF NO MORE
i wouldnt be surprised if nico traded for ja morant because nico is an inept gm
I have a feeling we might ship kyrie for ja straight up
I hate how journalists know that an athlete is emotional and continue to ask questions. After the same answer back to back go talk to someone else
We want trae young
cooper flag for ja morant ? ez pz for nico
AD, Max Christie, and a 1st wouldn't be enough to get Ja.
This must be clickbait?
On a side note, there's this player who is coming off the bench for the 76ers and averaging 18 points and 5 assists. Rumor is we could have him for Caleb Martin and a second rounder.
Ja has regressed, not improved the last few years. Plus he's stupid. Please do it to run that organization into the ground.
Trade Cooper Flagg to Bronny James 😂😂😂.
Kobe had less than 8 min a game, while Pooper is at 32 and has the ball in his hands all the time. This is insane cope. 🤣🤣🤣
AD and Klay for Ja. Take it or leave it.
