    He didn't look very happy about Dallas getting the #1 pick. Anyone else notice that?

    when Dallas traded Luka, armed only with a belief in shady dealing in the NBA, I predicted somewhere on this board that Dallas would win the lottery, unless I wimped out and predicted top 3. At any rate, the payoff is clear.

    Until ratings dip and they are forced to trade him directly to the Lakers without shopping him at all.

    I wonder if its a concern to the Mavs that he measured under 6'8"

    Saying he is like AK-47 equals dislike? Or is this some kind of bait for racers?

    Why is he never compared to a black player?

    I actually don't give a ****, I just find it amusing.

    Flagg isn’t like KD.
    His closest comp from a play style, height, length, athleticism is a young TMac

    I don’t think he’ll be the scorer TMac became, but I think he’ll be a better facilitator and defender.
    But young TMac in Toronto I see in Flagg.
    Chance to be an elite player.
    His floor is probably Kirilenko
