The Cleveland Cavaliers have acquired Donovan Mitchell in a trade, sources tell ESPN.

[Bar Razor]

Dude has been a beast this year.

 

[Bar Razor]

Dude was incredible tonight...

38 points and 12 dimes, dude is a walking highlight reel nasty dunk off the spin, deep threes, monstrous blocks at some point he is going to have to get his true props and the clowns in here gonna have to put some respect on his name. This guy is a bazooka on offense.

He played so calm and collected and in control the whole way. He completely decimated us tonight with his P&R reads and drive and kick the reason Dean Wade and Kevin Love had all them threes.

Up there with Ja as the most entertaining players to watch IMO.

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

All of this praise off a handful of games after we’ve seen his ceiling when he had the best team in the West?

He’s an all star and a great player, but when it comes down to it he will take bad shots and get broken down on defense. We’ve SEEN this multiple times in the playoffs.

I feel like "really good" is a stretch respectfully. they'll be competitive for years to come with what they have, but they are nothing more than a second round exit at most.

with Mitchell they probably look similar through 2-3 years but have a lot more upside after that theoretically

The Cavs have the same ceiling

The Knicks may have screwed themselves by giving Barrett that extension.

THE FACT THEY WERE THE BEST
TEAM IN THE WEST SPEAKS VOLUMES
TO HIS TALENT.

CONLEY
INGLES
BODANOVIC
ONEAL
GOBERT
CLARKSON

IS A BEST TEAM IN
THE WEST TYPE ROSTER?

AND THEY LOST
SIMPLY BECAUSE THE COACH
WOULDNT BENCH GOBERT
WHEN TEAMS WENT SMALL.

Their issues were more just on Gobert. They had no decent wind defenders and last year you literally had Dallas haunting both Conley and Mitchell.

Let us not forget that they literally got outplayed by Brunson in the playoffs last season and helped make him into a $100+ million dollar man. That wasn’t on Gobert.

OUR CONVERSATION
CLEARLY WASNT ABOUT LAST SEASON.

THAT TEAM WAS DEAD
IN THE WATER HEADING
INTO THE PLAYOFFS.

Cavs are a problem, hope they keep playing like this.

It may not have been about last season, but that criticism about that team has been that for years now, which is why they tried bringing Gay in as a small ball 5. They even tried it with Hassan Whiteside.

DUDE WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

CEILING WITH THE BEST TEAM

He's looking like an MVP candidate and the Cavs are 5-1 with Garland missing 5 games. Is this going to be a thing where you're going to go hard and actively hope Donovan fails or falls off so you can win this argument?
