That is the new mantra on this forum, pretty much everybody is parroting that take. I think it's still a knee jerk take based on hardly any sample size with our whole rotation being available.
I don’t disagree, but I think it’s for a lot of the same reasons LeVert as the starter looked “worse” two seasons ago.
Hell, he might've ruined some, just some, value.
Dude you're the only other guy here seeing those possessions clearly. And people saying DM is faking a tight hamstring on his FIRST game back from that very injury, that's a clown car take. I think it's reasonable to think it tightened up on him and affected shots he usually makes in his sleep.
It only appears that way because Mitchell is mentally checked out. Last year he would’ve guaranteed carried us to this type of win. We only made the playoffs because he was playing like a MVP to start the season. I think when he first got traded here he saw potential. DG and Allen were coming off all star appearances and Mobley was deemed a “unicorn”. A 1st round exit and year later he’s accepted the fact that he has Pennywise as a head coach, Garland is moody and overrated, Mobley is just a guy and Jarett Allen would rather play fortnight and celebrate defensive 3 second calls then put a player on his ass
Mitchell was coming off an injury so being rusty shouldn't be surprising.
That's the crazy thing too, if Mitchell played with the same attitude and mindset that LeVert had tonight, we win this game by double digits
It’s more that second possession. But the first one You had a chance for a 2 for 1 but he waste 10 seconds to take a contested 2. 2nd possession down 4 with 20 seconds instead of taking a 3 you take the same exact bad shit as the previous one. I had an epiphany at that moment and I don’t blame him for wanting out
BKN doesn’t trade Bridges for Mitchell
