In this episode of Dummiez on Da Hardwood, Bennie, Bobby, and Isaac break down the Dallas Mavericks’ rough start to the season and ask the big question: Can Cooper Flagg save this franchise?

With Luka Doncic no longer in Dallas, the Mavs are searching for a new identity — but is it time to rebuild and blow up the roster, or keep rolling and hope things click? The crew dives deep into the Mavs’ direction, front office moves, and how Cooper Flagg could shape the next era in Dallas basketball.
