On the Intersections Podcast, Mark Cuban discussed the Luka Doncic trade for the zillionth time, but this time the story has changed. Not only did he implicate Nico Harrison as the orchestrator, he said Jason Kidd was also behind the stunning trade.

After ESPN reported some proposed anti-tanking concepts the NBA is considering, we delve into the ideas, whether they make sense, and if they're an overcorrection to this season. Plus, with some teams tanking to be truly terrible and other teams having rosters that are truly terrible with no tanking necessary....is this really the right time for the NBA to be considering expansion to Las Vegas and Seattle? We discuss!

Cooper Flagg and Kon Knueppel are nearing the finish line of one of the most hotly debated Rookie of the Year Races in years. Before diving into the discussion of who should win the award though, we debate their placement on The Ringer's recently updated Top 100 Player Rankings. Spoiler alert: we have some issues with how high Kon is on the list...and how many spots above Cooper he landed.

Cooper Flagg, Naji Marshall, P.J. Washington, and the Dallas Mavericks played very well in Denver, but it wasn’t enough to beat Jamal Murray, Nikola Jokic, and the Denver Nuggets. Murray scored 53 points, the most by any Mavs opponent in five years. Jokic was one assist shy of a 20/20/20 game. The DLLS Mavs crew breaks down what was a pretty entertaining game, does a Tankathon spin, and takes a look around the league.

National NBA Insider Marc Stein joins to provide some info on why the Dallas Mavericks will remain patient in their search for their next general manager. The Mavs will have a high pick in the 2026 NBA Draft to pair with Cooper Flagg, but governor Patrick Dumont might not hire a full-time new GM until right before the draft... or even after.

P.J. Washington and Daniel Gafford, who both have had very rocky seasons mostly playing through injury alongside Cooper Flagg and the depleted Dallas Mavericks, have strung together some very good games recently. Have they turned a corner? Is the future suddenly brighter because of them, has their trade value been increased, or do Mavs fans still want the team to move on? The DLLS Mavs crew explores these questions, we take a trip around the NBA, and we get ready for the NCAA Tournament.
