The SECRET to Cooper Flagg's Hot Start for the Dallas Mavericks vs Brooklyn Nets Tonight

The Dallas Mavericks rolled past the Brooklyn Nets as Cooper Flagg scored 20 points in the first 13 minutes, then switched to playmaker and finished with 25 points and 12 assists in the Mavs’ NBA win. Kyrie Irving added 21 points with some wild finishes, and the Dallas Mavericks look like a connected, fun team at 6-4.

Nick Angstadt and Isaac Harris (Slightly Biased) break down Cooper Flagg’s hot start, the peanut butter and jelly story from Dusty May, and why Dusty May’s early sub pattern for Flagg is paying off. They also cover Daniel Gafford’s athletic resurgence, Morez Johnson Jr.’s physicality, Naji Marshall and Santi Aldama making the bench click, Walter Clayton Jr.’s fit next to Flagg, and roles for Zaccharie Risacher, Max Christie, PJ Washington, and Dereck Lively II. Plus a Mark Cuban sighting courtside and a look at the Mavs’ tough upcoming stretch against the Pacers, Timberwolves, and Warriors.
