What a thrill it was for all of us that make up the MavsTV team to broadcast many of the special moments that were part of Cooper Flagg’s NBA Rookie of the Year season!

If you wanna savor the flavor of some fun times, a mix of our favorite MavsTV Cooper highlights are here.

Poster dunks, drives and contested jumpers against top defenders, records set, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks. He did it all and the overall game you see here is a big reason why he won!

“Coop, There It is!”

@MFollowill & I talk about Coop’s Year 2 leap and those assists! Plus the dynamic duo combo with Kyrie, the numbers behind the 7-4 start and all things PB&J!

TDWY now available on @Audacy as well!

@Firesharter_ Thank you and I applaud your diplomacy. There are a lot of hardworking folks in TV w/ other teams/networks. The vast majority of people I come across are in it for the right reasons and have a passion for sports and the TV industry which is reflected in their work ethic/approach

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

A thank you for all of the MFFLs supporting what we do on the TV broadcast. Received some info today that the NBA Cup game vs Houston on 10/30 had the highest Nielsen rating for any of our broadcasts since we started our partnership with TEGNA (WFAA/KFAA) in the fall of 2024.

They're great partners and as I've said many times...it's a very difficult local sports broadcast landscape (post-RSN), so to have an over-the-air home for every game and 15+ of those on a big time ABC affiliate in the #4 market is incredible.

We're having a lot of fun bringing these games to you and the MavsTV crew is looking forward to more big games and bigger audiences as the season rolls on. Appreciate y'all 👊

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

@kampagnepapi The rating I’m referring to is the WFAA/KFAA number. I don’t have info on league pass viewer metrics

@suka4_aug Good ol KXVA - channel 15!

@EdoardoFrasso grazie mille 🇮🇹

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

massive West edge right now in cross conference games. West is 26-6 in games vs East teams going into tonight...if that gets back to even a 60-40 split that should clean up some but not all of the disparity.

Started off pretty lopsided last year but ended up w/ West winning 51.3% of games vs East. I don't think it will get that close this year but for now I'm assuming it will even out to some degree.

The West has won more than 50% of the cross conference games vs the East in 24 of the last 27 seasons FWIW.

@BashmTV @IsaacLHarris @TheDanaLarson All streaming is a little bit behind real time…in this case I believe there’s an extra step or two in the process because the feed goes from the arena to the NBA in Secaucus and then to our streaming app platform host for distribution.

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

Just bumping this up to make sure people are aware of this or as a reminder…tonight the outstanding Locked On Mavs duo of @NickVanExit and @IsaacLHarris joins our pre/half/post game coverage with @TheDanaLarson for Mavs vs Pacers. Welcome aboard to these great dudes and podcasters…pregame begins at 6:30 CST.

TV: KFAA29
Streaming: MavsTV+

I’ll need a coffee (black) from one of you guys at Dusty’s pregame media availability tonight 😉

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

You love to see it! Thrilled the elite podcast team of Nick and Isaac are part of the MavsTV broadcast team for Monday night’s game.

Of course they have to do what I say now 😉 but it’s truly a slam dunk (metaphorically speaking) to have this dynamic duo join the crew for a game

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

@dreampepperr @Flyhigher67 That’s a voted on thing by media so not technically tied to the stats - but it would be wild to not vote for him based on what’s happened so far

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

Cooper Flagg clutch play stats (w/in 5 pts in final 5 mins).

Tied for NBA lead in clutch baskets w/ Ty Jerome of Memphis at 11…on an incredible 11-of-13 shooting!

Not a function of playing a lot of clutch games like last season when the Mavs led the league (and went 17-28). They’ve played a middle of the pack number this year (4) and gone 3-1.

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

@PaulJoh81068553 Let me know what you hear on your customer support ticket…I sent an email to someone at our office to see if anyone else reported major issues

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

Available on the Mavs YouTube channel now is this week’s Take Dat Wit You podcast. @bdameris and I celebrate the tremendous games of Coop and Kyrie vs Indiana, the debut of Santi Aldama last week and the trends of the first 11 games. Plenty more too here

The @dallascowboys put up 508 yds. of offense & still needed a last-minute drive to win. Something is amiss.

The most important thing was they found a way to win. Now can they eliminate the mistakes that keep putting them in that position?

I'll join @TheHardline3to7 at 5:35 CT

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

Great work by all involved last night. Pleasure to have @NickVanExit and @IsaacLHarris as part of the pre/half/post game coverage on MavsTV and you guys had a helluva night to be on the show!!!

[Nick Angstadt @NickVanExit]

Last night was a blast

Shoutout to everyone who sent screenshots or friends who texted "oh my god youre on tv" to me, and to @TheDanaLarson, @MFollowill, @D_Harp_12, and the entire Mavs Game Night crew. Thank you.

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

Was super exciting to see Kyrie on the 2nd night of a back to back. 35 pts, 11/18 FG, 7/10 on 3s and played 38 mins.
Went looking today and Kyrie's 2nd night of a back to back stats w/ the Mavs are incredible.
19 2nd games of a B2B w/ Dallas, 29.2 ppg, 53.4% FG, 46.7% on 3s!!!

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

Historic Cooper Flagg game alert:

43 pts
10 rebs
6 asst
3 stls

16-25 FG/3-6 on 3s/8-8 FT.
2nd highest scoring half of his career (30 in 2H).
2nd youngest plyr to KD to record stat line of at least 40P/10R/5A.

Thrill to broadcast Coop’s game & a 125-122 Mavs W vs IND on MavsTV!
