The Donovan Mitchell Hype Thread! (repository of highlights and effusive praise)

[Handlogten's Heros]

Even if it is just pandering I'm cool with it. Everything seems well thought out and planned with the kid. He's been showing he's a professional and smart dude throughout the whole draft process. I think it shows his want to be embraced and it will be reciprocated. Just him showing that he wants to be liked and attempting to connect is more than others did.

Also, I was look at Eric Griffin's highlights from his D-League season and he once did a Malone tribute dunk in game. He was pandering before he even got on the Jazz.

I'm seriously annoyed that there's so many here saying they would trade DM for Erving. Idiots!!

 

[Engorged On Unborn Gore]

The alternative is the league-wide Trey Burks social media rationale. I'll take DM's "pandering" all day over twitter flubs and dick pics.

It's funny to think that he was 8 months old when that game happened...

That's a... sobering thought.

I never said the SHOULD do it. I stated that is what it would likely cost.

I have nowhere else to post this since it's not thread-worthy, but Donovan's girlfriend (the girl you'll see he's always tagging on Twitter) is the daughter of Chris Lighty.

Chris Vernon on the Ringer NBA show :
And then... after the practice is over... Donovan Mitchell walks straight over to him and said "Coach, my name's Donovan Mitchell. Is there any tips you can give me that will help me on the next level?"
