Port-Don Bot is gonna average 25+ when he starts getting star FTA.
Miami-This kid doesn't look like a rookie. He's unafraid of anyone and attacks the basket like a seasoned pro. I grew up being a fan of D-Wade and this guy reminds me of a younger #3 a little
Cleve-Gah i love hate how good utah is. Why did they have to get matched up so early... im confident for both teams so im looking forward to a game 7.
Philly-48% TS% for the game normally would be a bad thing, but unlike the 3 stars on the other team (or really 2 stars and 1 Me7o) he actually put the ball in the basket down the stretch
Unk-You don’t have to be gay to be attracted to Donovan Mitchell
Bos-This kid has got to make All-Star Game next year right?
Unk-He's already a max player
GSW-Dude is fast as ****
Philly-We will never get Jordon vs Lebron to decide who is the GOAT. But, there's a fair chance the next decade is defined by their closest proxies fighting it out. With Mitchell as the pure scoring guard ala Jordon and Simmons the all-around point forward like Lebron. One in West, one in East. Both from franchises that have struggled in the last decade and could use some sustained success and love. I'm ok with this outcome..
GSW-Ah yes, Ricky Rubio’s clutch deep shooting helps lead the Jazz to a victory over Paul George, Carmelo Anthony, and the Thunder in the first round of the playoffs. Just as we all foresaw a year ago.
Miami-He was clutch. He made 2 3s late in the 4th when the Thunder were getting close. Never thought I'd see Rubio in the playoffs and I never thought he'd actually play well.
Sonics-Man I vastly underestimated Rubio. Fully expected his shooting woes to be absolutely detrimental as soon as the playoffs kicked off. I don't know ****.
Spurs-Melo is actually ***
GSW-Melo was jacking up those ugly *** 3's too at the end of the game
Raptors-28 million next year for an even older Melo. Have fun, lol.
Spurs-I want to sex Donovan Mitchell. Anyone know how to go about that?
Brooklyn-Come home, Derrick.
Cleve-8 offensive rebounds is so damn good.
Mil-Damn this kid is impressive. Idgaf about ROY, Idk if I’ve ever seen a rookie truly carry a team like he has.
Spurs-Jazz are like that school kid in the 90's who's got a holographic Charizard.
OKC-I expect more from Adams aswell, except when we play Utah. Gobert is that one center that gives him a lot of trouble. He looks really hesitant with his hook shot, which is usually money
GSW-Mitchell inherited an almost brand new and retooled jazz team and it’s amazing to watch how he’s made himself into a franchise player given the circumstances and expectations. Kid plays with poise and doesn’t hesitate in his movements which is not the norm for a lot rookies.
Tor-Deserves Melos 28 mill next year lol
Spurs-What he's doing in has not been seen before in the last 2 decades. Also I think people underrate him defensively.
76ers-Watching Mitchell shoot these quick floaters in the lane is like "NO NO N- oh **** he made it" His release is so quick it looks like there's no way he's taking the time to aim but I haven't seen him miss many.
Cav-This kid is a beast. Did someone tell him he's in the playoffs yet? He looks unfazed
Rockets-this dude is just amazing... man hes definitely part of the future of the nba, just sick plays this whole series when most rookies are forced to take a step back in terms of production and playtime but not donovan mitchell, hes even more intense
Raptors-how did he drop to 13th pick lol i ask myself this every game he plays
Kings-Good god the degree of difficulty is unreal. Full speed. Turn. Falling to your side. And a ****ing floater to top it off.
Pacers-that's my ROY
Grizz-I don’t even know if I could run that route alone with the spin and jump without falling over, much less dribbling, shooting, and making a goddamn floater in the face of a defender
Clips-Donovan Mitchell is a bad, bad boy.
Pistons-The kid is legit. The jazz have a superstar and we have Luke Kennard. Beautiful move and perfectly executed on a top defender in the league I’m pulling for okc but you can’t help but love seeing the game played so flawlessly He’s quickly becoming one of my favorite players and he is amazing already. Kid has GOAT level potential I’m calling it now
GSW-Mitchell at some point in his career might be the best player in the league. I wouldn’t doubt it. The move he made in this video was ****ing amazing
Thunder-Further evidence that Jesus was in the United States
Thunder-People compare him to DWade but Wade never had a jump shot like his
Bos-kids a killer. can’t wait to see what he blossoms into.
Raptors-this kid is ****ing disgusting, how are you that good in your rookie year
Thundere-As someone who has watched Donovan Mitchell play a whole 4 times this year I feel fairly confident in saying he is secretly Jesus and is punishing all of us non-Mormons for our sins
Raptors-I'm in love with the mitchell
76ers-In all seriousness advanced stats shouldn't apply to a "volume shooter" like Mitchell. I see it as the same way I saw A.I, the impact he has by simply attacking and always being the focus of the offense cannot be measured in stats. The kid is ****ing relentless and you have to gameplan for him. He makes buckets/plays that are demoralizing to the other team. Dude hit clutch shot after clutch shot after starting the game ice-cold. That is some g **** and I gotta give him respect for that.
Spurs-damn, and he isn't even winning RoTY. This kid is fearless. Jazz is going to be contender for a long time with him.
Timberwolves-"Hey Playoff P, how my playoff D taste?"
Raptors-that's one spinny boi
Det-A move so filthy he had to put it through the spin cycle to clean it up.
Lakers-That spin move is lightning quick
Pelicans-Some of the worst shot selection ive ever seen for an entire quarter, they did nothing good
Lakers-It was really fun watching Utah trying to get Melo involved in the PnR and OKC desperately trying to prevent it.
Bos-A game where advanced stats are deceiving. Guy was killer and turned it on when needed.
GSW-0/7 from 3 and he still dropped 28.
Phoenix-Did anyone believe for a second that Melo was going to make either of those clutch 3s?
Lakers-Sixth foul on Adams was soft but geez, the Thunder couldn’t buy a bucket down the stretch. I was one Melo three attempt away from giving myself a ***** twister
Bos-favors with the game of his life...man was inhaling those rebounds
Raptors-melo is that girl you know who isn't bad looking but she acts like she's a 10/10 model and is a total bitch to everyone and youre like YOURE NOT ****ING HOT ENOUGH TO ACT THIS WAY **** you tessa
Rockets-I hope the next Game of Zones features at least a cameo of Melo building a house out of bricks
