Locked On Mavericks Hit - Quick Takes on the Dallas Mavericks

How Cooper Flagg’s Off Night Exposed the Dallas Mavericks’ Playmaking Gap

Episode Notes

The Dallas Mavericks lost to the winless Sacramento Kings, and with Kyrie Irving out, Cooper Flagg had his worst game of the NBA season, shooting 3-for-19 with 6 turnovers. What does the Mavs’ 96.7 offensive rating against a bottom-3 NBA defense say about Dallas Mavericks playmaking, shot creation and half-court offense?

Nick Angstadt breaks down why Cooper Flagg’s floater, passing and ball security weren’t there against the Kings, and why the Mavs leaned almost entirely on free throws to score. Nick explains how the Dallas Mavericks lost the ball movement that made their offense special, what Naji Marshall’s return looked like, and why Daniel Gafford was the Mavs’ best player on the night. What did this loss reveal about Cooper Flagg, Kyrie Irving, Dusty May’s offense and how far the Mavs can go this season?
