Do the Mavs have an analytical department? Is it cool for the Mavs to try to rally and expend all this energy because they're behind all the time? I have no idea why Flagg starts at PG. I can understand him playing the point at various parts of the game, but why force him to play a position where he's not comfortable at in the beginning of the game. It's always an awkward and mistake-filled 1st quarter. He's a natural SF/PF. Get rid of starting Flagg at PG. It's not working.
You had the Jazz play at OKC yesterday and lost in OT. They literally got home at 4 AM this morning. And yet they score 35 points in the 1st quarter against the Mavs.
To me, that's bad coaching.
What makes you think the Mavs are prioritizing wins? Cooper clearly doesn’t lose confidence overall when he struggles at the point. Playing point in high leverage situations will probably help him in the long run. I’m okay with it at this point.
