    Dirk going to LA for Luka’s debut. Probably the biggest FU yet to this front office.

    Isn’t trading your star player and having all your good players injured and then raising ticket prices the plot of major league II?

You can’t tell me this shit isn’t rigged

I didn't even know play in participants were eligible, lol. 

Congrats, Mavs fans, on winning the NBA Lottery and locking up the rights to Kon Knueppel.  Nico knows. Trust the genius. 
 

Anyone ever catch Flagg drink a beer? Heaven forbid.

Congrats Mavs on being owned by an intimidating Mob

Who’s the best defensive player in the draft? Because nico.

can we change the thread title to 

2025-2026 Mavericks - Self Flagg-Elation

I am absolutely shocked the Spurs did not get the #1 pick.

Also, Nico will draft Flagg and trade him to the Celtics for a 2027 #2, Derrick White, and Al Horford.

Hard not to say this isn’t rigged. I honestly don’t know what else to say. 


this one feels rigged. Counter point: in the previous 16 times the Mavs have been in the lottery they have stayed in the same position or moved down 16 times. Even in the Luka draft they had the 3rd best odds for number 1 and dropped to 5. Had to trade the following years one and Trae Young to get Luka.

They also didn’t tank properly that season. If they had, they wouldn’t have had to trade another pick to get Luka. 

Changes nothing for me. Still out on this team as long as this management team is in charge.

I can’t even feel good about this because I honestly don’t know if Nico is actually going to do the smart thing and keep the pick. 
 

I personally think they need to draft Flagg and trade Kyrie and AD for quality picks to put around him for the next 5-7 years. 

Can we please fire Nico before he trades this pick for Joel Embiid?

If ever Dumont wanted to hit a reset button, now is the time.

It's been rigged since Ewing went to the Knicks.  of course Spurs fan would never admit as much...

Cuban was never going to get the #1 pick from Silver or Stern.  

Interesting. Trade a superstar to the Lakers for nothing and get the best young player in college.wonder if Don King was involved in the transactions

They did.  They were fined multiple times for tanking that season.   Not much more you can do

I'm not much of a conspiracy guy, but this feels like a conspiracy.

so the Spurs getting Robinson, Duncan and Wemby didn't convince you?

which is exactly why silver/stern weren't going to let Cuban have the #1 pick.

If the Mavs ever wanted to hit the reset button, fire Dumont and Nico now.

I'm not saying he will be, but if Flagg is a defensive liability at all, it is going to be funny.

Things Nico could control:

Brunson extension

Luka trade

 

Things Nico couldn’t control:

Mavs 1.8% chance of winning the lottery

 

fire Nico

You’re right. They could have traded up to get the number 3 pick by taking on salary but they wouldn’t do it and decided to trade draft picks instead. Got that mixed up. 

With the first pick in the 25 draft Nico selects, The Professor. Season 1 And 1 Mixtape Tour winner.

we need to find out what kind of after game suds Cooper likes...

Man….think about how pumped we should be for this but most of us are concerned this GM is going to screw up…again. 
 

You cannot fully rule out the possibility he uses this to get KD. He doesn’t care about this franchise beyond 3 years from now.  Flagg does not turn this roster into a contender next year.

Hopefully we'll have the chance to actually use that title.

Have you seen him play? He's not going to be a defensive liability.

So when will the Mavericks trade Flagg to the Lakers ???  😕
