I have a question for him. "What kind of idiot would trade Luka?"

incredibly mature for such a young kid.
Kidd mentioned point guard twice already. SAys he wants to put him in uncomfortable positions and see how he handles it. Says he will play some point in the summer league.

Well, it's clear that Flagg is either the perfectly raised, humble, genuine 18-year old gem who's ready for anything, or he has received enough training for this moment to come off that way. Either way, he's going to fit DFW like a glove. The Mavericks are so tremendously blessed to have him here. He really is going to be adored, I think. Luka had a lot of runway as a European player in this market, thanks to Dirk, but I feel like Flagg's path to adoration here will be even easier.

Love the idea of Flagg being our starting PG! After all, 1) Kyrie will be out for 2/3 of the season, and 2) this coming year will be the last for a while in which we have our own pick to draft someone around his age.

Nico is worthy of his awful hairline.
