The Dallas Mavericks spent an entire offseason retooling around Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving, but what if none of it actually moves the needle? Nick Angstadt and Bobby Karalla ask the Dallas Mavericks and Mavs questions they've been afraid to answer all summer, and Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving are at the center of almost every one of them.Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit)  is joined by DLLS Mavs' Bobby Karalla to dig into whether the Mavs whiffed on their entire offseason class, who actually guards opposing guards now that Caleb Martin is still the team's best perimeter defender, and whether Dereck Lively II can ever stay decently healthy. They also debate whether Cooper Flagg is really a small forward or a positionless four, and how fragile the Mavs' improved fan vibes really are heading into a brutal early schedule. Naji Marshall, PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford, Klay Thompson, Zaccharie Risacher, and Mavs Team President Masai Ujiri all come up along the way.0:00 Did The Mavs Miss This Offseason?9:15 Who Guards Opposing Guards17:05 Can Lively Stay Healthy26:00 Is Cooper Flagg A Small Forward30:10 Can The Vibes Survive A Slump  📸 PHOTO: Imagn Images  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://lockedonpodcasts.com/leagues/nba  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers IndeedListeners of this show get a $75 Sponsored Job Credit to help give your job the premium placement it deserves at http://Indeed.com/podcast. BetterhelpThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Sign up and get 10% off at https://BetterHelp.com/LOCKEDONNBA. Aura CybersecurityStart your free trial today at https://aura.com/aware.  Protect yourself now.  SquareGet up to $200 off Square hardware when you sign up at https://square.com/go/NBA ! #squarepod FanDuelCollege football Saturdays are already packed with reasons to get excited, and this season, FanDuel is giving fans even more ways to get in on every matchup. Join all the action at https://FANDUEL.COM  FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.

The Dallas Mavericks are heading into a pivotal season, with questions swirling about Cooper Flagg's development, Kyrie Irving's health, and where the Mavs actually rank across the NBA. A new fan power-rankings breakdown has Dallas sitting at 21st overall, and not everyone agrees with the grade attached to their offseason.Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit) & Slightly Biased (Slightly Biased) break down that ranking and revisit an offseason shaped by first-year Mavs Team President Masai Ujiri and GM Mike Schmitz. They dig into why Santi Aldama is viewed as the only proven rotation piece added this summer, how much Marcus Sasser could grow into a bench difference-maker, and what Dallas gets back with Dereck Lively II and Naji Marshall healthy. The conversation also covers Daniel Gafford's frontcourt fit, what losing Klay Thompson means for the roster, and how the Mavericks compare to teams like the Warriors, Suns, Blazers, and Jazz heading into the season.  📸 PHOTO: Imagn Images  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://lockedonpodcasts.com/leagues/nba  📢 Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers IndeedListeners of this show get a $75 Sponsored Job Credit to help give your job the premium placement it deserves at http://Indeed.com/podcast. BetterhelpThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Sign up and get 10% off at https://BetterHelp.com/LOCKEDONNBA. Aura CybersecurityStart your free trial today at https://aura.com/aware.  Protect yourself now.  SquareGet up to $200 off Square hardware when you sign up at https://square.com/go/NBA ! #squarepod FanDuelCollege football Saturdays are already packed with reasons to get excited, and this season, FanDuel is giving fans even more ways to get in on every matchup. Join all the action at https://FANDUEL.COM  FANDUEL DISCLAIMER: 21+ in select states.
