The Cooper Flagg point guard experiment has run its course. It had run its course after one game, to be fair, but now it's really run its course.

And while it was always obvious that Flagg's fit at point guard wasn't a fit at all, we're now approaching the danger zone of Flagg's growth being stunted because he's never able to get comfortable in the Mavs offense. An offense that, for the record, does have the personnel necessary to let Flagg play his natural position. But head coach Jason Kidd seems intent on turning Flagg into a jumbo point guard, no matter how rocky the road is to that goal.
