Second time losing as 1-seed in Rd2.....

these threads are absolute trash and all the things we hate about hot take sports media culture, do better

I’m down with Trading anyone not named Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley. Would prefer to keep Deandre Hunter. We got a big enough sample size to know that the small backcourt can’t hold up to the playoffs physicality. Two big lineup works, they switched out the paint due the small backcourt and your SF is 6’5 Max Strus. It’s too much to hide on defense. Nothing against Darius Garland he’s a good player, two time all star. Two 6 feet guards non-defender as your starting backcourt will get figured out by a good team in a 7 game series.

Small 2 guards don't make my nature rise unless your name is Allen Iverson.

That being said, I wish Garland showed up. When determining how good a player is, availability is one criteria I use. Dude is injured way too much at the absolute worst times. He is weak and worries about his feminine hairstyles too much. Colin Sexton would've been more valuable than Garland

Got no problem with Mitch

 

[Miggs]

He isn’t a #1 that can win a chip. But if you swapped him with Jamal Murray, the nuggets would probably be a favorite to win ring number 3 this year.

Nah they would be better but not the favorite...

Donovan Mitchell averages 28 a game for his playoff career in 63 games.
