Westbrook to Houston for CP3

Fair enough. I looked at their stats and Donovan shot higher percentages last year than Westbrook did his MVP year. I wonder why Donovan struck me as so inefficient last year.

Donovan Mitchell got a lot of criticism that he didn't deserve last year. He was only in his 2nd year and 22 years old having to hold a team up by his shoulders against an improved Houston Rockets team. And in the regular season, teams had reviewed film on Mitchell and defended him better than in his surprise rookie season. He will be an elite SG in the NBA and we need to give him our full support and be patient with him. He deserves a lot less criticism and more support. We bail on our young talent way too easy and forget about their lack of time in the league and that they need to make mistakes so that they can learn from them.

More than anything Donovan had various injuries through the first half of the season but he wasn't revealing them. And he was coming off a serious injury which kept him from preparing properly over the summer. I never believed the reviewing film thing. He had four games before January where he had 7,4,6 and 3 pts. He just couldn't bring it those nights. Once his injuries healed he went on a tear ending up at 23.8 PPG for the season. This year he's going to be phenomenal.

Legendary is a bit much. Let’s see what he does this year with a legit surrounding cast.

When he is putting up MJ like numbers in the playoffs as a rookie, leading his team to a playoff series win in a way that hasn't been done since Wilt, breaking a 3point record for rookies, averaging 49 wins, winning the dunk contest, and averaging 23.8 ppg in his second year - that type stuff is building a legendary resume.

I just had a tiffany:

There’s this saying that someone’s not dead until they’re warm and dead, meaning that you don’t cease resuscitation efforts of someone who was hypothermic until you’ve restored normal temperature, as they may still may be revived. I suppose the MO of the FO is to make sure he’s warm and ded.
