Is it time for the Dallas Mavericks to tank, or should the Mavs make a playoff run in the NBA this season? What does the future look like for Cooper Flagg, Anthony Davis, and Kyrie Irving if the team goes for it instead of rebuilding? Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit) & Isaac Harris (@IsaacLHarris) discuss whether the Dallas Mavericks should tank or push for the playoffs, analyzing the impact of Cooper Flagg, Anthony Davis, Kyrie Irving, and other key players like Klay Thompson, Dereck Lively II, Daniel Gafford, PJ Washington, Naji Marshall, and D'Angelo Russell. The hosts break down the strategies and roster decisions involved, including analysis of Jason Kidd’s coaching and the front office moves by Nico Harrison, Mark Cuban, and Patrick Dumont. Tune in for perspectives on how the Mavs stack up against other NBA teams such as the Oklahoma City Thunder, Detroit Pistons, San Antonio Spurs, Houston Rockets, and Sacramento Kings, and what it would take for Dallas to make a deep playoff run or develop their young talents.   TEXT LINE: Be a Locked On Mavs Insider to support the show and get texts from Nick & Isaac on every Mavs Rumors, News Updates, Game Previews, Q&As, & More… 📲 https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonmavs 📲 TEXT: 214-643-8637     Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…  📺 Locked On Mavericks YouTube Channel 🎧 Locked On Mavericks Podcast Platforms     📲 Follow Locked On Mavs on Socials - Locked On Mavs Twitter @LockedOnMavs - Locked On Mavs Instagram LockedOnMavs   - Nick Angstadt Twitter @NickVanExit - Nick Angstadt TikTok NickVanExit - Nick Angstadt Instagram @NickVanExit   - Isaac Harris Twitter @IsaacLHarris - Isaac Harris Instagram @IsaacLHarris_     Locked On NBA League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Draft, WNBA & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA     📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers   Everydayer Club   If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
