1.8% Miracle. Dallas Perfect Resurrection. Cooper Flag AD Combination, League's Best Defensive Stands Ahead



In a word, it's a revival. The Dallas Mavericks achieved a 1.8% miracle.

I held the Cooper flag in my arms.

Dallas acquired the first overall nomination right as a result of the 2025 NBA Rookie Draft Rotary draw on the 13th (Korea time).




Dallas, which recorded 39 wins and 43 losses this season, had only a 1.8 percent chance of winning the first place.

However, Dallas entered the top four and eventually won the top spot.

The San Antonio Spurs ranked second, the Philadelphia 76ers ranked third, and the Washington Wizards ranked fourth.




Cooper Flag is a white monster rookie considered to have the highest potential since Victor Wembanyama. He is the ace of Duke University and the best player in the NCAA. 18 years old this year, small forward and power forward, tall at 2m6 with guard-like movements. He is a player with a length and versatility. He has already secured his potential by playing as a practice match partner for the Paris 2024 Olympic Dream Team.

Wingspan at 2m26. He has weaknesses in ball handling, but he has strong defense. The companion player is recognized for his defensive ability to the extent that he is Kawhi Leonard. However, the ability to create shots is poor.

However, I can play the winning basketball, and I have a very high level of integrity and work consciousness.




Dallas traded Luka Doncic this season. He criticized his weak defense and management problems. In the end, Anthony Davis, the head of the airlift, was brought in.

The Dallas fan's criticism was extreme. Criticism of Dallas General Manager Nico Harrison, who led the trade, was fierce.

Every game featured a picket called 'NICO OUT'.

NBA experts also rate Dallas' trade as 'catastrophic level'. Davis is at high risk of injury, and his prime is just around the corner. Kyrie Irving is also out injured for the season. Therefore, from Dallas' point of view, there seemed to be no way out. However, he succeeded in a perfect turnaround by winning the first nomination.
