Are the Dallas Mavericks overrated after preseason losses to the Atlanta Hawks and Houston Rockets, or is it far too early to judge this new-look Mavs roster built around Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving? With NBA opening night against Kevin Durant and the Rockets on deck, Mavs fans are debating the backup point guard spot, the veteran talent, and whether a slow start is coming.
Are the Dallas Mavericks overrated after preseason losses to the Atlanta Hawks and Houston Rockets, or is it far too early to judge this new-look Mavs roster built around Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving? With NBA opening night against Kevin Durant and the Rockets on deck, Mavs fans are debating the backup point guard spot, the veteran talent, and whether a slow start is coming.
Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit) breaks down a listener’s Comment of the Day calling the Dallas Mavericks wildly overrated and responds point by point. Nick explains why losing to playoff-tested teams like the Hawks, led by Jalen Johnson, Onyeka Okongwu, CJ McCollum, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker, isn’t the embarrassment some think, and whether Sergio de Larrea or Naji Marshall can handle backup point guard duties. Plus, how do PJ Washington and Daniel Gafford fit into a Mavs system built on pace and three-point shooting?
