I haven't watched. I don't know. But, is Cooper Flagg dog shit compared to his hype?

[ImKobe]

Haha, no. He flopped with 18 seconds left and it resulted in a turnover because he didn't get the whistle and it cost the Mavs the game. Cheater's justice.

With Kyle Kuzma of all people defending him. Kyle ****ing Kuzma.

Kuzma finally got comfortable in Milwaukee, his defense been good and he lit the Mavs up. Lakers had the best defense in the league the year Bron & AD both had injuries and Kuz played big minutes he's not as bad as some people make him out to be, just was stuck playing for a poverty franchise for years. Him and Giannis aren't an ideal fit but he's finding his spots.

I cought a lot of flak, for saying it was gonna be hard for Flagg to live up to his hype. He’s a tall 6’8” / short 6’9” without top tier skills offensively. All the defensive hype over his shot blocking would come more into play if he grew more.

Rim protection numbers have been good on the season. Those are good numbers for a wing.

Maybe Cooper's most flawless game yet. Had 2 points at halftime, was barely featured, largely in the corner. Came out and had a great second half & OT.

- 21 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks, 0 turnovers

Last 4 games: 19.8 ppg, 7.0 rpg, 3.8 apg, 1.8 spg, 1.3 bpg, 2.3 topg on 59.0% TS. He's really bullying his way to the paint & rim on drives. 65.9% 2PT on 10.3 2pa/g. Just needs that three-point shot he displayed at Duke to come around, and you've got the super-high floor he was advertised as.

[Yes or No]

How's his defense? Because from a statistical point of view it seems like he needs to be the "man" on a team and can't be relegated to a second or third option. Again, he's a rookie though.

It's a little premature to judge a #1 pick based on what? 12-13 games into the season. People act like LeBron didnt have games below double digits in his rookie season. Chill the **** out.

Either a star or a bust no in between regardless of how old or experienced you are!

It's also tough because they're in this weird spot. They tried to make him play point but it didn't really work, and now he's standing in the corner for a lot of the game. Mavs want to be a contender but the stars are injured and they're desperate to hold on until AD and Kyrie get healthy to make a run. It worked out for Tatum in Boston as Irving's injury gave him the chance to take on a bigger role and the team was perfect for him. The Mavs are in a cluster**** right now.
