Cooper Flagg didn’t go to IMG and he’s not 6’11”. He’s listed as 6’9” and he went to Monteverde. How hard is it to know that when you have a staff working for you?

Being from Maine, im automatically a big fan of his. This is pretty cool, we hardly ever have anyone make it to the NBA from here, let alone be this good.

The 1994 team was very close to the 1992 team. 1996 had a handful of the same players in 1992. Those guys still understood how to play an all around game. Today is a positionless game where big men are not as skilled inside. Teams back then would destroy these teams just by pounding it inside. Defense is not played nearly to the level it was back then and the physical play of the 80s and 90s is not matched by today’s players. Different era with different philosophy.

Texted my buddies the video of the 4th quarter yesterday. He's legit. I was kind of surprised

Dan Patrick has been a sports media institution now for decades that being said there’s other things that come with that and it can make you kind of big time. He didn’t seem to be especially interested in Cooper Flagg in college which all of us big college basketball fans are super excited about next year and a big part of it is this guy Dances to big time he’s out of touch it’s cool the guy still probably radio goat❤

Cooper clearly was the best player on the floor.

He went to Montverde not IMG

We've had some great players in Maine, but they usually get lost in the shuffle when they go to college. TJ Cowette comes to mind, he went to Villanova and they pretty much iced him out, wouldn't pass him the ball. He was a great talent, like Cooper.

Where is the actual video of him playing?

Uh like Wemby dont exist. Teams have been scouting Wemby since he was 16 years old and if Wemby could declare for the NBA draft at 16 no doubt in my mind he would of went number 1.

So he would be on the Atlanta Hawks? Dang, that would actually be a nice fit for a pf

So the Bulls are going down the pooper for Cooper

You really gotta get your info together before reporting

DUKE

Hope the Nets get the number one pick.

Great player but the media loves overrating everyone before the actual professional basketball career starts. Let's wait and see.

He plays strong similar to Scottie Pippen...

We have the technology: Just go to French Lick, scrape some DNA from Larry Bird's big right toe, and clone an army of Larry Legends to fill the NBA.

The draft take is all wrong. What the NbA is missing out on is the brand building that used to happen in college. What’s happening now is just ending up with lots of nameless faceless players.

Let’s not overreact to cooper Flagg having a good day in these scrimmages. This may be less of how great he is and more of an indictment on the NBA players and their effort levels in these games. They won this game by 1 point. We all know no one on that USA team was trying to stop him.

6'11? IMG? 6'8-9" Montverde Academy. C'mon Dan. Got the "white guy" thing right.

I'd still tell my kid to get a degree before NBA, im not saying he lacks, I'd want my son to have that education.

How did he pronounce Wemby's name

He’s 6’8 not 6’11

Isn’t Cooper too young to have qualified for the 2024 NBA draft. He is only 17 and graduated from high school a year early. So he, and all of the members of his ‘original’ high school class, can’t be drafted until 2025. He essentially graduated early to spend a year at Duke.

No team with LeCry Baby will ever be the best ever.

Flagg is good, but I'm pretty sure Team USA was playing at 3/4 speed. Let's not get overly excited.

It's not so much that he's white, because we've got Luka, Jokic, etc. It's that he's white AND American. We haven't seen a white American prospect like this since Christian Laettner. And the fact that Flagg also is on the Olympic team like Laettner was with the Dream Team in '92, is the cherry on top. Teams will be tanking next year to try to get this guy...

He isn't Wemby , or even Chet . He does have a chance to be good though.
