Who’s that stick that subbed in for Portland? He makes Mobley look like the Incredible Hulk!

His hair looked so heavy...lol

Mitchell with 34 points, Garland with 12 assists, Allen 24-12. And Mobley has 3 blocks and 8-13

Best version of this team is Mitchell scoring a lot quietly without handling too much, and Garland with a ton of assists.

7’1”, 195 lb John Butler who was drafted this year out of FSU

Yeah it's weird. I know he did a ton of work for the Yes! Network but AC role this season is all over the place.

And the weirdest component of it all is how the Bally’s crew included him in their high-low prediction game as if he was going to be a regular . Truly makes no sense

 

[LeQuit]

When Stevens got more point than all bench players combined

 

[Lee]

I only caught the 4th but the chemistry between Garland and Mitchell looked fantastic.

Its coming allong. Garland is starting to learn Donnavons spots, also learning his ahtletic abitlity. Its not just your turn my turn, its about setting eachother up or the hockey assist setting up a big man with a quick swing around the court.

They are gettimg there for sure.

How can you not love JA?

34 points in 31 minutes also. Playing less minutes usually means he’s more efficient and explosive as a scorer.

 

[Lee]

Taking LeVert out of the starting lineup has helped the chemistry allot. I said it before the year,but recanted a bit because of LeVerts effort on D, but the 3rd ball handler they have to worry about is too many chefs in the kitchen type scenerio.

Also known by some as the John Butler Lose Explosion.

Sure, sure, the scoring.

But once per game Mitchell has a rebound where he shows off like OBJ used to in pregame warmups.

Snatching it one-handed at 12 feet ferociously over a big man. Those rebounds are the most impressive thing to me because of the level stank on them.

 

[RubioFanLifer]

I completely forgot about LeVert this game. Not once did I think we need Caris out there.

With that said I'd play him over okoro

 

[Pierre Pan]

Every single time that I listen to JA’s interviews, I have to smile. He‘s so congenial

I mentioned this before and we’ll see if it changed after this game, but coming into today the starting lineup with LeVert was at a net rating of -0.9. With Stevens it was at -5.5
