The Dallas Mavericks have dug themselves into a hole in the early-season Western Conference Standings, but the future of the team is bright due to No. 1 overall pick Cooper Flagg. On this episode, we talk about how Flagg continues to improve as the game slows down for him, and why he's making certain "anonymous NBA executives" look silly for saying he wouldn't be the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. Also... how about undrafted two-way player Ryan Nembhard? The small-but-poised point guard has become one of the most important players on the team while setting records in the process.

Nine months after he shocked the world and traded Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers, Nico Harrison has finally been fired by the Dallas Mavericks. With Dallas getting off to a 3-8 start and Doncic averaging a near 40-point triple double while leading the Lakers to the top tier of the Western Conference, Mavs fans became as restless as ever.

On this episode, we discuss our initial reactions to this news and our excitement about the Mavs’ future centered around Cooper Flagg!

Is it too early to be down on the Dallas Mavericks' 2-3 start to the season?

The Dallas Mavericks' season got off to an uninspiring start on Wednesday night as they lost to the San Antonio Spurs, 125-92. Victor Wembanyama torched the Mavs with 40 points, 15 rebounds, and 3 blocks in just 30 minutes, and potential star rookie Cooper Flagg got off to a slower-than-anticipated start while playing at the point guard position.
