What's new

"you were right here.....you were right here...."

There was a video of Mitchell saying "That's what it takes to be the ****ing MVP?" to his teammates while exiting the arena. Has that been mentioned?
 
I wish he would have said "Do I have to throw my ****ing head back and arms in the air to get a call?" Would have been well worth the technical

I posted it, the guy who originally posted it deleted the video/tweet so it’s not there anymore, but yes we’ve seen it and it’s in quite a few places now. Once something’s on the internet it’s there forever no reason to delete it. I didn’t see why it needed to be posted in the first place, it was a guy from channel 4. I wonder if the Jazz wanted it down or something. Donovan said it where he obviously knew it was gonna get out there. Anyway, I like Donovan’s fire, it shows he truly wants it. I’d rather have that burning frustration than a no-care attitude of some others that have played here. For anyone who happened to not see it here it is:



...nothing but love for the dude, he’s an intense competitor who hates to lose.

Agree with what you said aside from the immaturity part. I’m a mid-30s guy in a “profession” that beats “professionalism” into people and the constant neutering of human emotion is itself childish. How you actually respond in action is what shows maturity and #IStandWithDonovan.

Who's recording these videos and posting them to the internet? This is what makes players become mute IMO. They realize they have no privacy and resort to not saying anything.
 
I remember reading the Tim Donaghy book. A total shock, like I hoped the NBA was just full of incompetent people not corrupt ones.
It's hilarious that he (Donaghy) got in trouble for admitting the officiating was fraudulent and the NBA was never held accountable.
David Stern should have been immediately fired and the small market teams should have put together a lawsuit yet nothing ever happened. There has to be a hush agreement worth millions. That's the only possibility really.
Ever since the book I knew the NBA has been for entertainment only. One day something might legitimately come out about it. I doubt it as there is potentially billions at stake.

Edited it out...you’re right

This was originally posted by one of the two sports guys on Channel 4, I don’t remember his name. However, Donovan said this almost purposely when he did so it would be heard IMO. There’s a couple more cameras there, this just before the entrance to their locker room, he knew the media was there and he clearly said it knowing it was going to get out. I agree players should be given their privacy, but Donovan knew at that moment it would get out and could have waited until he went through those doors to say it and it would not have been recorded. I think at the moment he was fine with them hearing it. He just got recorded a week and a half ago saying something similar so I doubt he thought he wasn’t being recorded. I doubt he loves it now, but I doubt he cares much either.
