One more thing. Cooper Flag will win an NBA title before Luca Donchage. Well, you're still locked on to the Dallas Mavericks. Your team every day. My name is Nick Engstead. Media member coming to the Mabbs for over 10 years. It's a number thing. We're talking about the Mabbs going throughout the rest of the season and beyond. We're joined by Isaac Harris, one more thinking himself, and let's get right into it. I want to do true and false questions about the Mavs' future. We'll talk about Derek lively and what his future is going to be. We're talking about PJ Washington and all that, but let's start with, you got a spicy one for me up front. I'm ready for it. Right off the top.

True or false, Cooper Flag will win an NBA title before Luca Donch.

This is like pure first take, like graphic.

You see it posted online and you're like, all right, let's do this.

I think you got answer first.

I think the Cooper flag will. I think the Cooper flag will.

And I think it's more about the Lakers than it is about the two players.

The Lakers have just slightly has gone in his rant many, many a times about the Lakers and I'm about to join him.

Rob Polinka has just completely wasted multiple years of Luka Dantra's career.

I don't think I don't think Marcus Smart is that guy. And that you just keep looking down the roster. you're like, I just don't think they have anything.

Like they need to add,

if you're going through the list we went through for the other show,

two all-star level players. that you just keep looking down the roster. You're like, I don't think they have anything. Like, they need to add, if you're going through the list we went through for the other show,

two all-star level players.

Okay, cool.

If LeBron just leaves for nothing in free agency, then you get nothing from that. Two to three high-level role players, they have zero of those. I don't think. I don't think they have a single, I don't think they have a single.

Luke Conard erasure.

Maybe Ruy counts.

A high level lead guard.

Got that.

Cool.

One of the two types of centers, workhorse centers. They're not, the centers are not good enough. An elite wing guard defender. Marcus Smart is not who he was four years ago. Volume shooters, they at least have that. It's like, they have to add like three or four high level players. just to start competing again. And then you get into all the issues of like,
