He has always been an average defender that can make defensive plays.

How is that in the act of shooting? He has momentum towards the floor not upwards. The block call is fine but the continuation.

After seven games of knock-down drag-out war, with game seven still knotted after 6 OTs, the two head coaches get together at halfcourt and negotiate a compromise:

Three point shootout. Aron Baynes vs Amir Johnson. For all the marbles.

Someone is gonna overpay to try and convince Boston to let him walk this summer, whichever team is holding his contract after it's finalized is gonna regret it almost instantly.

He is the defensive system. The guy is otherworldly good on defense. You’re right that he can’t shoot a lick though


The system makes his defense look way better than it really is. You'll see if he ends up outside of Boston and Stevens world class defensive system.

These days LeBron gets an offensive foul called when he drops his shoulder like that 9 times out of 10

I figure it’s the same way a Celtics fan would feel watching Mitchell play :wink:


We have Kyrie. Mitchell is damn good but nobody in Boston is missing anybody in this draft. Jayson Tatum is gonna be special

Yeah I would say Tatum was a homerun considering the 3 picks so far, no one outside of Utah really knew how special Mitchell was coming into the draft.
