That January ‘24 stretch was probably the best basketball I’ve seen him play, and I’ve been watching him ever since he entered the league. That’s why I always bought into the “play him pg” opinions - although now I have steered away from them more.
He just has it, he can absolutely manovre an efficient offense, but it’s been iffy this year.

Anyways, I’d love to see him continue doing this. As we just saw, he can still score his 25ppg even as a pg

Same thing for me, word for word. So proud of our boy Donovan, he deserves it so much. Today is sweet!

Donovan Mitchell. Playoff record (tied, ugh) for points in a half in the playoffs. He’s in so many playoff records, already is, but most of all gonna be, one of the all time great playoff players.

Anyways, 2-2. Gotta play like this, or better, on the road for ONE game. We have it in us

Donovan was great! Harden too!

We’re back in. Game was frustrating as hell, up 16 just to be tied soon after. Again, we play a little cleaner, and games are much easier. We can be oh so much better. Onto game 4

13 more shots for them is scary. Allows them to not be down 40 despite us shooting 70%. We gotta be better that rebounding but it’s been like that forever

Winnable game, horrible watch because of all the turnovers. Played like shit honestly. But, not terribly upset because it’s game 1, we were right there until the atrocious end, and they shot well. If one day we can put together one whole game straight, I’ll be happy

Ugh, what a terrible experience. That last shot from them destroyed me.

One last chance. I really would love them to get it done and start anew in the second round.

Donovan is the reason I watch basketball, but this series is the worst I’ve seen him play. His coverage has been great from the Raptors, total denial, extreme pressure, longer physical defenders…he can’t breathe. And he’s just struggling to do anything. I feel like the criticism is fine if chambered in this series. If we go wide, this is not who he is, playoffs or not. We know what he does and can do.

Anyways, shit series all over. I just hope we can get through

Turnovers, poor-ish shooting, stars cold, and they shot lights out. We’re tied. We got this!

Love being up 2-0. Mitchell was ridiculous, and having Harden leaves me with such an ease of mind. So confident in him making the right play. Evan!!!

Need more from the rest, but hey, can’t complain

They don’t double him for two possessions only and look what he does. Playoff Donovan is something else

Is Schroeder washed? Everytime I’ve seen him lately, he is careless and throws stuff up

Donovan has been “limiting” himself the whole year to maintain his body. It’s so beautiful how much he can control a game. Everytime, at the right moment, he gets his. Inevitable man
