Big season for Anthony Davis.  Can he stay healthy and amplify our center(s) playing power forward.  I don’t think Davis is good enough to be a number 1 on a championship team.  I don’t think A healthy Kyrie is either.  The question is can Flagg be a #1 and if so how quick.  If Davis fits, he and Kyrie can be a top #2 options in the league.  Even if Flagg is not a true #1 for a few years.  The Mavs have a chance to be a deep team with elite #2’s.  Is that enough to win a title?  First step is to see if AD can play with centers and really allow the centers to shine.

It feels more like AD, Kyrie and Flagg would all be #2’s (at least this early in Flagg’s career).  So, can three really good “Robins” (and depth) beat teams that have a Batman?  In some ways isn’t that Indy?  Siakam isn’t a #1.  I’d argue Halliburton isn’t either (except maybe in the final seconds of a game).  They really don’t have a third “Robin”, but are very good 3-5.
