Donovan looks way undersized out there... I fear he might be a bust as a star and what I mean by that is his ceiling is rotation guy. Damn we need an offensive star...

hes gona be a defensive stopper....the next grind father.

He can be an Eric Gordon or Jason Terry, maybe a bit more. He'll be a piece of the puzzle.

I don't understand. This shows that DM hasn't been good.

He looks rather raw on the floor, has a lot to learn. First two things he should learn is to play within the offensive flow and focus on making simple high percentage plays instead of forcing the issue.

In his first 4 games, he went against the good teams of the West, all are arguably top-10 NBA. And obviously he was not prepared for taking Hood's spot all of a sudden. So his numbers will only improve. I'm not worried about him, he has the physical and mental tools to be a remarkable NBA player, if not an NBA star. He is in the right hands, if he keeps learning and works hard he'll not disappoint.

I'm worried about Mitchell to essentially the same degree that I am worried about my next giant size KitKat.

Have you heard about the Chocoladilla ?

Did you know there is no such thing as an alpha male? There isn't even such a thing as an alpha male wolf, which is where the whole alpha myth started. The person who originally proposed the concept of the alpha wolf found through additional study that there was no such thing and tried very hard to dispel the myth he started, but people just love the idea too much to let it go.

Anyway, I'm sure you like 95% or more of men think you're an alpha male and it's pretty important to your identity so you're gonna keep on believing in the alpha male myth.

That actually makes a ton of sense from an evolutionary perspective. I've been reading about this all morning and it's incredible how off the stereotype is.

Interesting side fact from a related community: Male lions are hated on because the females hunt and they take first bite of the kill. The reason they don't do the majority of hunting is that they are protecting the cubs from rival prides. They've also evolved to be less stealthy and more of a brute than the females.

DM has looked good but results have been trash. I'm not worried. Rookies either show they can hang or they become projects that never turn out.

Mitchell scored 15 pts in the first 6 minutes of the 4th quarter. Seems pretty good to me.

I haven't. I just looked it up.

All I can say is that I am resistant to the majority of fast food-driven innovations. The "Glacier" at Millie's Burgers in Sugar House would be a notable exception.
