Yea you’re right Nick.
6th is the ceiling for Dallas and it feels inevitable since Utah and New Orleans are heavily incentivized to lose and win.
They get DLive & Irving back theirs going to be a lot of excitement ❤❤😂
idk why anyone would take nick and isaacs podcast seriously. He literally says the mavs will finish 6th for the lottery definitively acting like they cant get to fifth or move up. I turned it off right then and there. Dude why don't you actually start breaking stuff down for the team and doing actual research instead of this "rookie wall" nonsense and click bait stuff acting like you know anything overall in general
Burries and Philon are 100% in that group. Philon's handles and poa defense are the best of this group. I think his total points creation (points and assists) are only second to Acuff.
Alot of yall are forgetting that we are gonna win the lottery anyways to finish the Luka trade deal
FINISH THE REBUILD!!! That is a perfect way to put it. If they can get to 6, or maybe even possibly maybe PLEASE the 5th spot, that would be pretty huge and a TON of options. Stick and get the BPA? Package up a deal to jump into the Top 2-4? Or maybe the lottery gods truly bless you with a Top 3 pick and you can save a trade package for something else to build around Flagg.
Klay on an expiring deal? PJ? Gafford? Maybe Naji? Brandon Williams? The 29/30th pick? That's gotta be worth something to someone out there. Either to move to 2-4 or to go for a veteran or 2 that works with Cooper's timeline.
But please, somehow get to 5 and then some Spurs luck and get 1-3. That would be fucking wild!! AND to add Kyrie to the mix?!?!
mavs been bad in raising young players. stop wasting time
Let’s lose the next 5-6 games and “secure” the 6th slot. Games against the pelicans and grizzlies will put us in excellent position to relax a little.
I think it’s possible for both of them to be GMs
Shockingly Utah won tonight and Dallas is only one game behind them in the win column.
This could be an incredibly weird last month of the season.
Hang on to your tank helmets.
Keaton Wagler has to be the guy @ 5.. we need the size and shooting
Can we take a minute to just appreciate AD is gone, the vibes are so much better. We can also go out and get a big free agent as well
Love how Isaac reminds everyone that Caleb Wilson is top tier. Thank you Isaac!!!
Cooper Flag Era
This was a stupid video
