Don't know if I can get more excited but this article is good self-pleasure fodder.

So, what’s next for the Jazz?

“The goal is a championship,” Mitchell told Yahoo Sports without hesitation. “… I just find it funny. People ask me that all the time. What’s next? I say to them, ‘How come you don’t ask Golden State what’s next?’ You know what I mean? That’s how I look at it. We’re all in this for a championship. We’re not here for nothing else. I just laugh when people ask me that because I’m like, ‘Would you ask that same question to Boston?’ What’s next for us is a championship, and you can ask everybody in the organization and in the city and they’ll tell you what’s next.”

This quote is great too.

“Just because I [averaged] 20 [points], I tell people all the time, if I wasn’t a rookie, this would be a regular season,” Mitchell said. “It’s 20 [points], three [rebounds] and three [assists]. That’s not [spectacular]. That’s average. So, I have a lot to improve on.

“I gotta get my assists numbers up, for sure. I’m a much better passer than what I showed last year. Watching games, and watching film, if I slowed down, opportunities would have presented itself a lot more. Being more under control, more efficient. If the All-Star Game comes, it comes, man. But for me, if I focus on myself and how to find ways to get better, that will all fall into place.”

Don’t ban me for this: his attitude reminds me of Kobe. Motivated, hungry, competitive, hungry. I like it!

Don’t ban me for this: his attitude reminds me of Kobe. Motivated, hungry, competitive, hungry. I like it!

He’s more sincere than early Kobe... early Kobe had some awkwardness and Gordon Hayward scripted personality things to him... old man Kobe was pretty fantastic... he did not give one eff.

I loved his post-game interview with KK. He seemed pissed at how he played despite still scoring 24 points. It's refreshing to have guys like he and Rudy that are so hyper-competitive.
