Brooks is a trash talker...Donovan Mitchell shoved D Broooks down, Both ejected.

Brooks gets blocked on the layup and falls down....he spins and ( accidentally ?) hits Mitchell in the huevos. Mitchell is angry....melee ensues.

I hate D Brooks.....always the tough guy talking trash.

Mitchell is down to 27.1ppg, has come down from 29.5 about a month ago. Lauri at 24.9, with much higher efficiency and much better defense. I think it's a wash between these two. I had a feeling that Mitchell's numbers weren't sustainable.

I'd like to have brooks on the team. I'm also glad Mitchell is gone. It was obvious he had checked out and was unwilling to change his game at all when the team still had a chance to win.

I'm stealing this from the General Board:



We gave a 26 year old allstar and gained a 25 year old allstar, plus Sexton, Agbaji and a whole bunch of picks. And the Cavs have the same record after 50 games as they had last year with 30 wins and 20 losses. I also think Markkanes' game might age better than Mitchell's.

I think we made out like bandits in both trades.

I was jus about to post something along the same lines except featuring Kessler as the primary. That tweet is awesome!

That was a total cheap shot by Brooks. I think that Reggie Miller was wrong when he opined that it was inadvertent.
