This is a pointless thread.

So lets come to a starting point before the question can even be answered- What stats would be considered a bust? How do we define a bust?

Above the fray.
No it’s not.
Nobody in the mavericks fanbase or city of Dallas is ever expecting another Luka again.

Cooper Flagg can still be a great success story and appreciated separate from that. Kyrie as well.

Mavs fans over a certain, have had two elite talents nearly back to back with Dirk and Luka. You dont think much of the white fanbase expects that he will be the 3rd white elite talent?

I never thought Cooper would be a bust...until the mavs got the number one pick...

As it stands now they have no real point guard and they are clearly going to feature AD on offense, so how is he going to get the ball?

And when Kyrie get's back you know he going to be gunning for his trying to re-establish himself.

What role is he actually supposed to play on this mavs team other than role player to Kyrie and AD?

He might legit bust on the mavs but be fine on another team that is really going to build the team around him.

The funny part is that the Mavs should clearly take Dylan Harper at one because he is so much more of a fit for their team. All they have is an old guard coming off a serious injury and some random dudes, Harper could start for them day 1. Instead because of the Luka trade and the hype around Cooper they going to be forced to take him and watch a rival take Harper at two and probably create a dynasty with Wemby.



AD will probably take 18-19 shots a game at most he will not take too many shots away from Flagg who shot be taking 14-15 shots a game. Austin Reaves developed on the team with AD and Bron as a third option. Dallas just needs to get a past first point guard and reset the offense.

Been telling yall the NBA bout to put the rocket on his back and make him the face of the league and yall hear it here early

They just told the American people that Cooper Flagg is more popular Thann Taylor Swift and Beyonce combined….

Our true white savior is here!! Lol
The nba doesn’t make you face of the league, you’ve got to be incredibly good and marketable. They can’t help you with that

Austin Reaves is just some role player Cooper Flagg is the number one pick supposedly franchise player in the draft :mjlol: . I 100% don't want my number one overall pick to be following any sort of training regime of some dude who aint never done nothing in the league but be wide open cause everyone else on defense is paying attention to Lebron, AD, and Luka.

The Mavs just re upped Kyrie for 40 million a year so they aint doing nothing else at point guard but paying Kyrie for awhile :mjlol:

We have tons of evidence that shows when high lottery picks go to teams that are good and trying to win at the highest level ( Darko, Wiseman) shyt can go sideways.

Bailey about to be on that infinite shot diet in Utah doing whatever the fukk he wants and Flagg about to be in Dallas getting yelled at all day by coaches cause he aint set that drag screen 100% perfect for whoever they have running point before Kyrie get's back.

Like who?
The 3 faces of the leagues in the 80s, 90s, 00s, and 10s were all not only black but rather dark brown.



You are basing this on CK, I don’t know much about women’s basketball. But she’s not only white, they say that her game is LeBron-levels for being a girl. Even above where she was like all-nba as a rookie.

So yes, if cooper is all-nba in his first year, styling on the best players in the league. And has a game nobody seen before, then
well, perhaps he deserves it.

Then add if he’s a role model, interesting, not media shy, well spoken etc. Then again, he deserves it.

Has little to do with being white. If he’s just Kevin Love levels, he’ll be Kevin Love. You forget that most of the nba media people are black and the nba is very pro black. But of course, getting more white people to watch the nba is good for everyone. But athletes aren’t getting shyt for free :yeshrug:

Stop trolling man. Jokic and Luka are legendary players yet people are still pushing the likes of Ant Edwards or Wemby to be the face.

Hell, even Bird wasn't really the face of the League during his era. Magic was way more popular off the court and MJ was the face by 87.

If what you're claiming is even remotely true then Kevin Love should've been the face of the League when he was averaging 25/15 on the Timberwolves.

Y'all insecure nikkas that cry because a white boy went 1st for the first time in like 50 years are batshyt crazy.

He's a number 1 pick who has been hyped for at least 2 years. Doesn't he have to be a "superstar" for him not to be a "bust"?
I guess that depends on what your definition of a superstar is

I don’t know if he’ll be a bust but it’s not easy winning in the NBA. That’s why I respect the ones who did.
