Cooper Flagg's 49 PTS are...
▪️The MOST by a teenager in NBA HISTORY
▪️The most by a rookie since Trae Young in 2019
He also became the youngest player in NBA HISTORY to total 40+ PTS and 10+ REB in a game.
Naji Marshall loves playing for the city of Dallas.
“Like I said, when were and 4-12, every game was sold out. They still showed us love. We’ve dealt with some unfortunate injuries and things going on the last two years; but they still stick with us. It says sellout right here on the paper. Shoutout to them, whether we win or lose their in every game and cheering us on. It’s a beautiful thing to see.”
Naji Marshall on Cooper Flagg:
“Coop is really amazing at basketball. He’s a dog, on both ends of the floor and every game somebody guards them with their best defender and he just goes out and proves that he’s a No. 1 pick…Pledge allegiance to the Flagg, man.”
Cooper Flagg on loyalty:
“Loyalty has always been a big thing for me, and I think it’s just being where my feet are. I’ve loved every minute of being here…I feel like I’m living the dream…Everyone here in Dallas has been so amazing, so I’d be foolish not to want to be here for as long as I can, and whatever happens happens, but I’m just trying to enjoy life one day at a time and take what’s given to me and just feel really blessed.”
Shams on trade packages the Mavs will be offered for Anthony Davis: "You're looking at packages around role players, picks, potentially expiring contracts."
So think about that. That’s what the Mavs traded Luka for. It’s still unbelievable. Every day. Still shocking.
Man I love North Texas. Glad we stayed in the AP Poll & CFP ranking & will be awesome to see a ranking number by our name in a bowl game. It’s been a dream season & hoping for one more dub. But some stuff about Friday (injuries, officiating etc) will gnaw at me for a while. #GMG
Look at this box all the way from Denton, Texas!
It's the MEAN GREEN from North Texas!! Did you know they are still alive for the College Football Playoff... I did!
Thank you to Coach Morris and @MeanGreenFB for this awesome box, good luck for the rest of your season!!
You get to the Finals then decide that you know better than anyone else including your franchise legend (who you tunned out along many other capable people) who now has to tell you on TV that there is huge hole at playmaking, shot creation and scoring.
Bob Myers: "I'm gonna say something that might be controversial: Victor Wembanyama got a lot of attention being the #1 pick. I could see Cooper Flagg impacting winning more than Victor did in his rookie year"
