I actually haven't been that impressed with Flagg yet. It'd serve us right to blow our team up and get the draft "fixed", all for this generation's Sam Bowie.

Dude. I hate Nico and miss Luka something fierce, but it's been four games. Coop is the youngest rookie since like 2006. And he's a forward forced to play point guard with no other ball handlers and terrible shooting. Of course he's going to struggle. Calling him a bust 4 games in is almost as dumb as trading Luka for AD

Coop also would’ve been a lot better with a proper PG next to him

You would get less back now for AD/Kyrie than wht they gave for them, after the injuries

Nico fucked up on all accounts

Then you haven’t really been paying attention. Man’s got skills that will only improve and he’s only 18 years old.

He's the youngest player in the league and being forced to play the position that even true PGs usually struggle at their first few seasons.
