Preseason Game 4: Mavs vs. Hawks | 7:00pm CST

[KillerLeft]

Cooper can do yhe playmaking like lebron. What this team needs is a true 3rd option on offense. I dont think morez or PJ  fits that 3rd option role.

It's not a question of can/can't. Going through that door prevents him from realizing a much better version of his career. That's what I'm afraid of, at least.

If it were up to me, I'd have him setting screens for Larry, Sasser and Kyrie, and if those dudes aren't good enough to win (they probably aren't, even in the aggregate) I'd look to be opportunistic to upgrade in that area. At least then Flagg would be put in position to do the things he'll be elite at doing - FINISHING plays. Instead, they're taking the "well Gee, he's our best player - I guess we should just give him the ball and see what happens" approach. I was hoping that would stop when Kidd was replaced. They're STILL hoping they can just slot Flagg in for Luka and that everything will work just the way it did before trading him. That's a little oversimplified as a description of the approach, but it's close enough for me to hate it.
